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.

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.

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.

Is The Air Jordan 11 Low Varsity Red The Sneaker Of The Summer (Video)

The Air Jordan 11 Low Varsity Red is one of those sneakers that we all just love but also love to hate. Think about it; who wouldn’t want a pair of the Air Jordan 11 with the red patent leather? It seems like an obvious choice for a colorway that it’s shocking it wasn’t an OG pair back when the shoes first dropped in 1995. But Nike had their reasons and saw fit to wait until 2001 to drop the style, but not necessarily in the way that we would have wanted it as a low-top. 15 years is a long time and styles and perceptions have changed about the 11 and while we all expect these kicks to sell out on the minute they drop in stores, there’s still some out there hoping the Sneaker Gods will bless us one day with a Mid version.

I don?t hate how it looks in low-cut form, but I?d really prefer the model in its original form. The colorway isn?t for me, but it?s pretty appealing. This should get some attention.

Another Look At The Air Jordan 12 Varsity Red

The Air Jordan 12 continues its strong retro run in 2016 with a brand new “Varsity Red” colorway. We’re used to seeing the splash of Chicago-esque red on the asymmetrical mudguard inspired by Japan’s rising sun flag, but here Jordan Brand flips the look to have the red shade dominate the premium tumbled leather throughout while a streak of white leads into the midsole. Think of the Air Jordan 12 “Cherry”, just flipped. The release even comes with metallic red lace eyelets for an added touch of luxury. This Air Jordan 12 “Varsity Red” is rumored for a July 2nd release date.Be sure to head to our release dates page for more updates.

I like the simplicity of the silhouette?s profile. In this colorway, it?s solid, but I would have preferred it more without the touches of Blue. It’ll still sell well though.

Have you seen this Air Jordan 1 before? If you haven’t don’t worry because we haven’t either.

It turns out that this pair of Air Jordan 1s was created exclusively for the man himself Michael Jordan. Looking at the shoe we can see that it comes dressed in a black tumbled leather upper with smooth leather landing on the toebox, ankle, and heel. Finishing details include the Nike Air Branding on the tongue done in red, special “23” dubraes, a white midsole and an icy blue translucent outsole.

We’ll never be able to own this Air Jordan 1, but what are your thoughts on this colorway? Would you cop if they did release?

Author’s Take

The colorway on this Air Jordan 1 is nothing too special, but the tumbled leather is really nice though. I wish Jordan Brand actually made Jordan 1s with tumbled leather uppers.
