We’re now just three days away from the release of the first Air Jordan 1 High OG of 2016.

Taking inspiration from Michael Jordan’s appearance on The late Show With David Letterman back in the late 1980’s, this Air Jordan 1 comes dressed in a Light Crimson leather upper with Midnight Navy and University Blue detailing. Midnight Navy lands on the tongue, ankle, inner liner, outsole and the Wings logo by the ankle. Capping things off is University Blue detailing on the Nike Air branding on the tongue and a White midsole.

Scheduled to release on April 30th for $160, is this Air Jordan 1 a cop or pass for you? Make sure to head over to our Air Jordan 1 High OG David Letterman launch page for the latest images, videos and release updates.

Author’s Take

When I first saw pictures of this Air Jordan 1 I didn?t like it at all. Now that I see better pictures it?s actually not that bad at all. The only thing I don?t like is the University Blue hits on the tongue.

I like this silhouette a lot. This colorway is pretty solid but I?m not too keen on it. It?s a nice offering for the young ones.

Author’s Take

It?s reminiscent of the OVO collab. I?m all for tonal looks and this pair is certainly versatile and perfect for everyday wear. I?m a New Yorker too, so yeah, I?m biased.

The Details On The Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian Are Amazing

jordan 4 premium 1 jordan 4 premium 2 jordan 4 premium 3 jordan 4 premium 4 jordan 4 premium 5

From afar, the Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian just looks like a tonal iteration of the Air Jordan 4. It’s only when you take a close look at the shoe that you realize how detailed the shoe really is. Today we take a look at the latest images of this upcoming Jordan Brand Fall release.

The first thing that catches my eye is the attention to detail placed on the Obsidian colored upper. Take for example the stitching on the toe, that’s something we rarely see on the Jordan 4. How about the quilted leather stitching placed on the side panels, heel and tongue? That’s pretty cool too! The leather tag and embossed branding on the tongue and heel. Leather laces? Sweet!Leather heel tab, lining and insole. Check. How about the copper accents located on the studded heel tab, eye stays and custom hang tag. Dope. Out of all the Air Jordan 4 Premium offerings that have been unveiled, this is the one that I feel is closest to be worth retailing at $400. What do you think? Need more info on the shoe? Visit out our Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian launch page for additional information.

I like it. The shoe does evoke a premium feel to it. Small stuff like the leather laces and quilted upper give it a nice luxurious feel. Will I drop $400 on them? Perhaps. Only time will tell.

Could This Sample Be The Air Jordan 11 Space Jam Releasing This Year

While we all patiently wait for official images of the Air Jordan 11 Space Jam dropping at the end of the year commemorating the 20th anniversary of the movie, today we get our latest look of what is said to be a sample of the upcoming Jordan 11 release. As you can see, there are a few things that we’re sure will please the masses.

Right off the bat, the first thing you notice is that the heel tab comes with an embroidered ’45’ on it instead of the customary ’23’. Another different feature on the shoe is the Concord (purple) colored Jumpman placed on the heel/collar of the shoe. What are your thoughts on these new features on the shoe? Do you like the 23 and Royal Jumpman, or are you cool with the 45 and Concord Jumpman on the sample pair? Which pair would you rather see release? Sound off in the comments below. Check back to Kicks On Fire for the latest updates on this upcoming release and make sure to bookmark our Air Jordan 11 Space Jam 2016 launch page for the latest information.

Author’s Take

I’d prefer if the shoe came with the Royal Blue Jumpman and 23, but if it drops like the one above, that’s cool too. After all this mimics the PE pair that Jordan wore so that’s cool too.

The Jordan Spike 40 Junior Has Some Details You Wont Find On Mens Pairs

An On-Feet Look At The Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate

air jordan 7 tinker alternate 1 air jordan 7 tinker alternate 2

Can’t get enough of the Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate? Still on the fence regarding this upcoming release? Perhaps these on-feet images will help you decide whether this is a cop or drop?

The shoe is said to be an alternate colorway of the Air Jordan 7 Olympic created by Tinker Hatfield. The biggest difference I’m able to distinguish between this pair and the Olympic pair are changes such as the use of blue used on the underlays, the mismatched heel pull tabs and lining, and the American Flag placed behind the 9 located on the heel. There’s also the gradient/speckled midsole that helps give the shoe a different look as well. Are you looking forward to this release on August 16th for $190? If so, make sure you let us know on the comments below. Check out our Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate hub page to catch up on all the latest news and information regarding this future Jordan Brand release.

Author’s Take

There are parts of the shoe that I like, such as the blue placed on the underlays, but there are also parts that I can do without such as all the stuff going on with the midsole. I think these will have to be a pass.

WWE Kicks: Shane McMahon Steals The Show In The Air Jordan 1 Letterman

Monday Night Raw took place in Hartford, Connecticut last night and Shane McMahon continued his control over the show. But there was a surprise appearance yesterday by Stephanie McMahon, Shane’s sister, who has grown tired of seeing Shane run the company and wants control to be shifted back over to The Authority.

Shane McMahon 1

This Sunday at WWE Payback, Vince McMahon will announce who will permanently be taking over Monday Night Raw and who will be left out in the cold. From the reception that the show has gotten the past few weeks since Shane took over, you would think that Shane would remain in control. But you never know. As has been the case for quite some time now, Shane was back at it again last night rocking some unreleased Air Jordan heat! Since he has what we believe to be a pretty good relationship with Jordan Brand, Shane O Mac brought out the Air Jordan 1 High OG David Letterman that doesn’t arrive at retailers until this Saturday, April 30th.

Complete Release Info For The Air Jordan 1 David Letterman


David Letterman was the GOAT late night talkshow host, so it makes sense that the brand representing the greatest player to ever lace up a signature sneaker will be releasing an Air Jordan 1 paying homage to the late night icon. In 1985, a rookie Michael Jordan sat down with Mr. Letterman to chat his early superstardom and the controversry surrounding the “Banned” pair of Air Jordan 1s which didn’t feature enough white throughout the red and black upper. This Air Jordan 1 “David Letterman” represents the shiny metallic sweatsuit that His Airness wore during the televised appearance, as a bright Light Crimson upper sees metallic accents of Midnight Navy on the Swoosh and ankle collar. A minute touch of University Blue hits the classic ‘Nike Air’ branding on the tongue. This pair will be available this Saturday, April 30th but look for your own size right now on eBay.
