Gio Gonzalez gave us a first look at the Air Jordan 10 Rio yesterday when he posted his latest Jordan Brand haul on Instagram. Also included in the picture was the Air Jordan 12 Flu Game which is arguably the sneaker that people are excited about the most in the picture.

Gonzalez is probably hyped to already have his hands on the Flu Game 12s too because today he posted another picture displaying just the popular pair of 12s. The Air Jordan 12 Flu Game comes in a Black and Varsity Red leather upper that reminds everyone of the Michael’s time spent playing for the Chicago Bulls. Additional Varsity Red detailing has been added on the branding on the tongue and heel.

Check out one of our best looks at the shoe yet and let us know if you plan on picking up a pair come May 28th. Also don’t forget to check in with our Air Jordan 12 Flue Game 2016 launch page to stay updated with the latest images and release information.

Author’s Take

I was lucky enough to be able pick up the French Blue 12s a couple of weeks ago and the quality is amazing. If the quality on these Flu Games is the same then it’ll make it really hard for me to pass on them.

The first Air Jordan 9 Low drop of 2016 is only days away, with that being the case we take another look at the upcoming release of the Air Jordan 9 Low Black / White.

The shoe comes dressed in a black premium leather upper complimented by the tonal faux snake-skin placed on the mudguard region of the shoe. Accompanying all the black on the shoe are the red accents placed on the lining as well as on the branding located on the heel and tongue. Lastly, a white outsole balances things out a bit to give the shoe a crisp and clean look. Dropping April 16th for $170, is this a cop or drop? Also, make sure you visit our Air Jordan 9 Low Black / White launch page for additional images, videos and other updates.

Author’s Take

I can definitely see the Air Jordan 9 Low doing better than the Air Jordan 5 Low. Coming in a black and red colorway doesn?t hurt either. Not to mention the faux-snakeskin placed on the upper. Not a bad looking shoe.

Author’s Take

Now that better images of the shoe have surfaced I must say that I like this Air Jordan 1 more and more. The combination of white and metallic  navy is just so clean and classic. If these somehow fall below retail I may consider grabbing a pair.

This past weekend we saw the release of the Air Jordan 4 Premium Black which retailed for a whopping $400 price tag.

Jordan Brand will continue to premium Air Jordan 4 releases with the Snakeskin colorway that we’ve already taken a few different looks at. This shoe features  a snakeskin material that is used on the upper as well as premium tumbled leather on the tongue, toe, side panels, wings and inner liner. A clean white midsole/outsole holds things down while bronze metal detailing appears on the eyelets and heel tab. The colors on the shoe include Light Bone, White, Pure Platinum and Wolf Grey.

Author’s Take

Not a bad colorway of the Air Jordan 4 but if they do cost $400 then that?s just ridiculous. I like the snakeskin upper but I just can?t justify the retail price.

Previewed yesterday for the first time by Washington Nationals pitcher and Jordan Brand athlete Gio Gonzalez, today we take another look at the all-new Air Jordan 10 Rio.

This time around we get a closer look at the shoe courtesy of another Jordan Brand athlete, Joe Haden. As you can see, this Air Jordan 10 will be another addition to the City Pack that in the last couple of weeks has gone international. The shoe features light and dark grey throughout the upper with RIO embroidered up by the ankle. Completing the Brazil/Rio theme is the blue, green and yellow outsole that serves as a nod to the flag of Brazil.

There is still no release date available at the moment but we’ll be sure to get that to you once we more information surfaces.

And the Air Jordan 10 City Pack just continues to grow and grow. Judging from this first look this is one of my favorite colorways from the entire pack. I look forward to seeing more pictures.

Leave it to the #FashionKing to upstage the Black Mamba. But then again, Kobe Bryant wouldn’t have it any other way. My guess is he would have been disappointed if Russell Westbrook didn’t record a triple double in the first half in the shortest time since the 1950s. And Mamba would have been equally ticked off if Westbrook didn’t bring the Jordan Brand fire in the form of an Air Jordan 3 PE. Yeah, Kobe gets the special pack and the Laker-colored exclusives that are simply better than anything else, but imagine how many 3s Russ has now made just for him and will continue to get in the future.

Speaking of Westbrook’s 3s, it appears to be a pair he was saving for when the Thunder wore their alternate dark blue uniforms, but when the opportunity to show off for his spirit animal came up, it was the right thing to do. Here’s hoping they get a retail release in the future.

The post NBA Kicks: Russell Westbrook Debuts New Air Jordan 3 For Kobe Bryant’s Final Road Game appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

Monday night was an important outing for the OKC Thunder’s Russell Westbrook, who accomplished a record-tying eighteenth triple-double of the season. Westbrook managed to tally that stat overload in just one half, which impressed Kobe Bryant, whose final game will go down tomorrow against the Utah Jazz. On top of the A-plus performance is his top-shelf sneaker game; Westbrook broke out a navy/white Player Exclusive colorway of the Air Jordan 3, a welcome respite to his usual rotation of the Air Jordan XXX. Peep some additional in-game views of this Air Jordan 3 made just for RussWest and let us know if this is the best PE of the season.

The next Air Jordan 1 to release takes inspiration from a very unexpected moment in Michael Jordan’s life/career.

This upcoming colorway of the Air Jordan 1 High OG inspired by Michael Jordan?s visit to The Late Show With David Letterman fresh off his 63-point playoff performance against the Boston Celtics. This Air Jordan 1 comes draped in a Light Crimson leather upper with Midnight Navy detailing appearing on the Swoosh, ankle, tongue, inner liner, ?Wings? logo by the ankle and the outsole. A White midsole and University Blue Nike Air branding finish things off. The insoles also feature a microphone along with the words ?On Air? to complete the David Letterman theme.

Scheduled to release on April 30th for $160, let us know if this will be a cop or a pass for you. Also make sure you visit our Air Jordan 1 High OG David Letterman launch page for additional images and updates regarding this upcoming release.

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 I think it doesn?t look that bad. The only thing I don?t like is the University Blue hits on the tongue.

The post Who’s Ready For The Release Of The Air Jordan 1 High OG David Letterman? appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

The Air Jordan 10 City Pack is ending up being bigger than we initially expected. With the Air Jordan 10 Paris releasing exclusively in Europe over the weekend and getting a first look at the Air Jordan 10 Rio earlier today, it seems like Jordan Brand is going international with this pack.

One colorway from that pack that we know for sure will be releasing domestically is the Air Jordan 10 Charlotte. Inspired by the NBA team that is owned by Michael Jordan, the Air Jordan 10 Charlotte features a white leather upper with purple and teal detailing on the tongue, eyestay, ankle, laces, ankle, heel and outsole. ?CHA? has then been written by the ankle as an abbreviation for the city.

Releasing on June 18th for $190, will you be scooping up this pair of 10s? Make sure to bookmark our Air Jordan 10 Charlotte launch page to stay updated with the latest information on this release.

Author’s Take

I?m not the biggest fan of the Air Jordan 10 so it would take a very special colorway for me to actually buy a pair. Purple and teal aren?t really my cup of tea but I?m sure fans of the ?grape? colorway will be all over this pair.

The post Detailed Images Of The Air Jordan 10 Charlotte appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

The craze around the Air Jordan 10 is currently centered around the City Pack that highlights cities such as Los Angeles, Charlotte and Chicago as well as international destinations like Paris and Rio.

But the sneaker does not have to be attached to a city for it to be considered “heat.” Here is a first look at a new grade school colorway of the Air Jordan 10 that will be releasing later this year. Covered in Pure Platinum throughout most of the leather upper, this Air Jordan 10 is highlighted by the Vivid Pink detailing on the inner liner and outsole. Finishing things off are touches of Black on the tongue, laces, eyestay, ankle, and outsole.

The Air Jordan 10 GS Vivid Pink is currently scheduled to release on May 14th for a retail price of $140. How many ladies (or guys) plan on copping a pair? Take a look at the official images above and let us know.

Author’s Take

If the pink Air Jordan 12 that released earlier this year taught us anything it’s that the guys will be going after these kicks just as hard (or harder) than the women. As for me, I’ll pass.
