I?m not really a fan of this model in low-cut form. If it was the original build, I?ll look forward to purchasing. Either way, it?s still a classic pair that a lot of fans will consider getting.

It looks more like a designer label sneaker. I?m all for simplicity and minimalism, but I?m really not that tempted yet in purchasing this style. The makeup looks solid though.

The Air Jordan 12 has been on fire so far in 2016 with lots of more colorways still waiting to be released throughout the year. Arguably the most popular colorway that has dropped so far has been the French Blue pair.

Toronto Blue Jays catcher Russell Martin decided to give his pair a unique look. Sneaker customizer Custom Cleats Inc. decided to convert the basketball shoe into a baseball cleat. As you can see in the image above the shoe’s upper was untouched with the only change coming on the outsoles.

Last month we began getting early reports that the white colorway of the Air Jordan 12 OVO is currently expected to release on July 30th. While that date may not be confirmed just yet, it gives us a pretty good idea of when we could see the sneaker arrive at retailers.

The Air Jordan 12 OVO White features a white tumbled leather upper with some luxurious stingray leather being placed on the mudguard.

I like the Olympic theme on this Air Jordan 5. I just wish the gold on the tongue wasn?t metallic/shiny. This is easily the best new colorway of the Air Jordan 5 I?ve seen in a while.
