Air Jordan 6 GS Cool Grey Releases In May

With no signs of any men’s sizing so far, the Air Jordan 6 appears to be having a big year just for the kids with a number of new colorways dropping in Gradeschool sizes. The summer begins with two new looks for the classic Air Jordan model for girls, featuring similar looks in “Ghost Green” and “Green Glow” with predominantly grey uppers, and now it looks like a boy’s GS version will be dropping in May to follow up the versions for the young ladies. Also in grey, the boys’ colorway features a mix of black and Cool Grey with an icy sole for a more neutral look than the two green-accented girls’ colorways. The small-footed Air Jordan 6 fans can pick these up beginning May 21st at Jordan Brand retailers.

Following its official reveal, more images of this upcoming Air Jordan 6 GS are provided, as the model is highlighted by its green glow accents.

Essentially a kids-exclusive offering, the silhouette flaunts a combination of dark and light shades of grey across its nubuck-based upper. Perforations are applied on the side panels and ankle portion to allow sufficient ventilation, while the defining hue is evident on its heel tab, lace lock and portions of its midsole to pronounce its understated profile.

All resting atop an icy blue translucent outsole, you can find this latest pair at select JB and Nike accounts on April 30th for $140.

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 little ones.

The Air Jordan 10 NYC Has Two Different Release Dates

As if there weren’t already enough Air Jordan retro release dates to keep track of, things just got a bit more complicated for the drop of the anticipated Air Jordan 10 “NYC”. The black and gold colorway for New York that many are considering the best look of the all-new Air Jordan 10 City Series will drop at Jordan Brand retailers on April 27th, but then be followed by a release on the Nike SNKRS app three days later on April 30th at 10 AM EST. It’s one more release date to keep track of, but it also means that means you’ll have two chances to grab the Air Jordan 10 NYC.

Check Out This Unreleased Air Jordan 1 Made For Michael Jordan

At first glance you might think these are the “Perfect” Air Jordan 1 created for TEDxPortland back in 2014. But look closer, and you’ll see there’s no “Perfect” detailing. Why not? Because these were actually created just for Micheal Jordan himself. The shoe features the same full grain leather upper in black with an icy sole and complete with #23 lace dubrés, this sample is definitely not something you’re going to see everyday.

The silhouette is a clear classic so it?s something I?ll never get tired off. I wasn?t into the colorway at first, but these new images and the 4K video is making me re-think my decision.

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 so I guess I?m biased.

I’m a fan of the model and this finish is pretty cool. I’m a fan of the print as well. I hope it comes out in other colorways.

AIR JORDAN 7 TINKER ALTERNATE 1 AIR JORDAN 7 TINKER ALTERNATE 2 AIR JORDAN 7 TINKER ALTERNATE 3 AIR JORDAN 7 TINKER ALTERNATE 4

Said to be an alternate version of the classic Air Jordan 7 Olympic, Jordan Brand has decided to show and release to the world a Tinker Hatfield Air Jordan 7 creation that never released to the public. Today we get the latest images of the Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate.

The shoe’s release will coincide with the 2016 Olympics, which will definitely help the shoe garner more attention. This alternate version of the Air Jordan 7 Olympic comes dressed in an upper consisting of White, Metallic Gold Coin, Deep Royal Blue, Fire Red and Lite Iron Ore. Put all those colors together and you got a USA inspired version of the Jordan 7. A White leather upper is paired up with the Deep Royal Blue suede underlays. Adding some color to the shoe are the Gold and Red accents found in areas such as the branding, sole unit and lace tips. Unique features on the shoe include the use of mismatched heel pull tabs, lining and tongue patterns in which the right pair comes with blue accents and the left pair comes in red accents. A tri-colored speckled midsole site underneath the upper. Lastly, the number 9 that overlays an American flag placed on the heel is a nod to Michael Jordan?s Olympic number. Is this better than the Air Jordan 7 Olympic? Set to drop August 16th for $190, make sure you 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.

The Jumpman on the heel comes in tonal fashion, while the laces and tongue also come in Dark Grey. Releasing on April 30th for $140, are you GS-footers excited about this release?

Author?s Take

Even if these were to release in adult sizes, I still don’t think I’d want to pick up a pair. Ever since Jordan brand started to release sneakers with Green Glow on them, I never really wanted a pair. Yeah. it has a pop to them, but they’re just not really my style when it comes to Jordans.

More Images Of The Air Jordan 10 Los Angeles

AIR JORDAN 10 LA 1 AIR JORDAN 10 LA 2 AIR JORDAN 10 LA 3 AIR JORDAN 10 LA 4 AIR JORDAN 10 LA 5

Just in case some of you haven’t heard by now, my hometown, the city of Los Angeles is also getting their own colorway on this year’s Air Jordan 10 City Pack. Let’a get a closer look so we have a better idea of what to expect once these drop in the near future.

Coming in an tonal offering, the shoe has an upper done up in three shades of blue consisting of Ocean Fog, Blue Lagoon and Midnight Navy. Said to be inspired by the state of California, we’re still waiting on why Jordan Brand opted to go with all these blue tones on the upper. Th blue heavy upper sits on top of a all-white midsole to create some sharp contrast. Notable features on the shoe include the ‘LA’ embroidering on the collar and the Blue Lagoon found on the guts. Dropping May 14th for $190 at select Jordan Brand retailers, let us know how many of you plan on picking up a pair. Be sure to visit our Air Jordan 10 Los Angeles hub page, where you will be able to find all the latest news and images regarding this release.

Author?s Take

As an Los Angeles native, I tried really hard to like this colorway, but I just don’t. Too many shades of blue, and to make matters worse I’m not a huge fan of the 10s. Jordan Brand definitely has the ability to do better.

Peep This Air Jordan 14 Beach Custom

Air Jordan 14 Beach 2 Air Jordan 14 Beach

 

I’m both happy and sad when i see this colorway on the Air Jordan 14. Happy because it’s a really dope colorway. Sad because it’s a custom and it won’t be in stores. Regardless, let’s take a closer look at the Air Jordan 14 Beach custom.

Inspired by the Just Don x Air Jordan 2 Beach collaboration that releases earlier this year, the Air Jordan 14 comes dressed in a leather done up in the same hue used on the latest Just Don x Air Jordan 2 release. The guts and laces also come in the same colorways, while a white sole and gold lace tips clean up the shoe rather nicely. Would you cop if these were to drop? Let us know in the comments below.

AIR JORDAN 1 DAVID LETTERMAN OFFICIAL IMAGES 1 AIR JORDAN 1 DAVID LETTERMAN OFFICIAL IMAGES 2 AIR JORDAN 1 DAVID LETTERMAN OFFICIAL IMAGES 3 AIR JORDAN 1 DAVID LETTERMAN OFFICIAL IMAGES 4 AIR JORDAN 1 DAVID LETTERMAN OFFICIAL IMAGES 5

Not it’s not an OG colorway, but the Air Jordan 1 High OG David Letterman still appears to be getting a good amount of attention due to the unique inspiration behind the shoe. With the release date being only one week away, today we get another official look at the latest Air Jordan 1 High OG set to drop.

More Midnight Navy hits can be seen on the laces, nylon tongue and outsole. The OG Nike branding on the tongue comes in University Blue to complete the look of the upper. Lastly, an all-white sole unit and insoles that read “On Air” as a nod to Jordan’s first appearance on the David Letterman show complete the major features on the shoe. Retail price is $160, release date is April 30th. Are you looking to cop? be sure to visit our Air Jordan 1 High OG David Letterman launch page to help you decide on your purchasing decision.

Author?s Take

The inspiration is “different” and so are the colors used on the Jordan 1, but it’s not really something I’d consider picking up. It’s not a bad looking shoe, it’s just not for me.

Spring Ready: Air Jordan 1 Low Hyper Turquoise

Air Jordan 1 Low 1 Air Jordan 1 Low 2 Air Jordan 1 Low 3 Air Jordan 1 Low 4 Air Jordan 1 Low 5 Air Jordan 1 Low 6

Over the past year, the Air Jordan 1 Low has been getting more attention than usual since Jordan Brand decided to release OG versions of the shoe rocking OG colorways such as the Shadows, Chicagos, Breds and Royals. If for some reason you’re not a fan of the OG look rocking the same old colorways, perhaps this bolder take on the shoe will help garner more of your interest. Today we take another look at the Air Jordan 1 Low Hyper Turquoise.

The low-top comes dressed in a Hyper Turquoise leather upper. The same hue also takes care of the laces, nylon tongue and Nike Swoosh on the side panels. Providing some contrast are the black hits utilized on the Jumpman and Wings branding, as well as on the inner lining of the shoe. The tonal look of the uppers sits on top of an all-white sole unit to give the shoe a clean and sharp look. It has no Nike branding on it, it does not come in an OG colorway but that doesn’t mean it’s not dope! To each their own, right? Available now at select retailers, let us know if you dig this bold look on the AJ 1 Low.

Author?s Take

I’ll keep it real, the only time the Air Jordan 1 Low caught my attention was when it came in OG colorways with Nike branding hits. That doesn’t mean I won’t ever pick up a non-OG Air Jordan 1 Low, it just has to be really dope for me to pull the trigger. This one doesn’t do it for me.

More Images Of The Air Jordan Horizon Premium Baroque Brown

Jordan Horizon Premium 1 Jordan Horizon Premium 2 Jordan Horizon Premium 3 Jordan Horizon Premium 4 Jordan Horizon Premium 5 Jordan Horizon Premium 6

The Jordan Horizon opts to take the premium route on one of their latest drops. Opting to come in a tonal premium constructed upper, today we get another look at the Air Jordan Horizon Premium Baroque Brown.

The Horizon’s upper will come constructed out of a Baroque Brown premium leather covered in a croc-like texture. The same color of the leather extends all the way down to the midsole to create a streamlined appearance. The sole unit itself is borrowed from the Air Jordan 13, as it’s easy to tell just by taking one look at the outsole. Metallic Gold lands on the branding while Infrared 23 can be seen on the outsole and the insoles. Are you a fan of the premium version of the Horizon? Let us know in the comments below.

Author’s Take

I’m not against the shoe, it’s cool. But I have a feeling these won’t sell that well, which means that I have a chance to scoop these up at a steal somewhere down the line.
