I still like the original version better. The detail on the rear is pretty solid. This will definitely get a lot of attention.

With the Oklahoma City Thunder currently leading (2-1), in a best-of-seven series against the Dallas Mavericks in the first round of the NBA postseason, OKC’s star guard, Russell Westbrook has been seen sporting exclusive variations of the Air Jordan 30.

A notable JB advocate, two pairs are highlighted, particularly in the “Away” OKC colors with predominantly photo blue and orange accents with the netted motif on its heel.

The other model flaunts a pristine makeup in all-white, alongside silver detailing. Additionally, the model flaunts the word “Dangeruss” on the insoles as a reflection of his personality on the court.

Unfortunately, these colorways won’t be available to the public. Check them out on court as the Thunder pursue an NBA Championship.

Author’s Take

I’ve shared before that I’m a fan of the model’s simple makeup. Out of the two, I’d have to side with the white pair just because it’s more versatile and stylish.

Did you know that Tinker Hatfield designed multiple variations of the Air Jordan 7 Olympic for Michael Jordan’s trip to Barcelona in 1992? This summer, Jordan Brand is celebrating the near quarter-century anniversary of the Dream Team as USA Basketball readies for the Summer Olympics in Rio De Janeiro by releasing the rare Air Jordan 7 Olympic Alternate pair. The feature that stands out the most has to be the unique Air Jordan 7 heel construction featuring an American flag with Michael Jordan’s Olympic number 9 placed prominently off-center. The heel tabs even alternate between Fire Red and Deep Royal Blue for a unique twist. The Olympic Alternate Jordan 7s will release on August 16th for $190 USD.

Essentially flaunting a simple finish, wolf grey consists as its dominating tone across the leather upper, tongue and laces, while white converges onto the forefoot and rubber sole unit to create an aesthetically pleasing combination of shades.

To further pronounce its profile, the defining contrasting element is evidenced on the miniature side panels and Jumpman branding on the tongue tab, as metallic silver are utilized for the top eyelets to finish off its makeup.

Priced at $190, the sneaker is scheduled to drop at select JB accounts on June 25th.

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.

Okay, now that we know what the Air Jordan 10 NYC’s latest release date is, who is planning on picking up a pair? As we’ve gotten closer and closer to the release date, it appears as if the shoe’s popularity is gaining more and more momentum. Being that it comes in a very versatile colorway, it’s fairly easy to like the shoe.

The NYC colorway of the Jordan 10 comes dressed in a tonal black upper constructed out of two different types of leather. The black leather is accompanied by even more of the same hue placed on the eyelets, laces, lining and tongue. Creating minimal contrast as well as a classic color combination are the gold hits strategically placed on the Jumpman on the outsole, the “NYC” embroidered on the ankle, and the striped (black/gold) heel pull tab. There’s even a bit of gold speckling placed on the black and dark grey outsole. A blacked-out Jumpman appears on the heel, and the Jordan branding on the tongue comes in embossed fashion. Dropping April 27th for $190, who’s copping? Be sure to bookmark our official Air Jordan 10 NYC launch page now for additional information on the upcoming release.

I like the use of two different leathers, but when it comes down to it, it?s an all-black shoe on a model I?m not too fond of. It?s a pass for me.

So what’s the Air Jordan 11 Low Navy/Gum going to look like once you lace them up and put them on your feet? Just like I expected, amazing!

Coming in a Navy Blue upper, the shoes construction comes in a mesh base and a patent leather mudguard/toe. Navy Blue laces and lining round out the monochromatic look up top. Creating a nice balance and contrast is the white midsole and gum outsole combination seen down low. It’s not everyday you see an Air Jordan 11 come with a Navy Blue upper and a Gum bottom outsole. It may be a new look, but there’s no doubt that it looks good on the shoe. Slated to release sometime in the Summer, keep it locked to our official Air Jordan 11 Low Navy/Gum launch page as release information on the shoe is soon to follow.

The Air Jordan 1 High goes late night next weekend, with the release of the iconic sneaker in a colorway inspired by a young Michael Jordan’s appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman. Back when MJ was 23 years old and the Air Jordan 1 was still new to the world, he appeared on Letterman wearing a bright red warm-up suit with a blue polo underneath, which is the obvious inspiration behind this new look for the Air Jordan 1 in Light Crimson with Midnight Navy accents?including the metallic paneling around the heel and for each Swoosh. The best non-OG colorway of the Air Jordan 1 since the “Shattered Backboards”? We’re going to go with yes.

Out of all the AJ 10s coming out this year, this pair is my favorite and it’s a women’s style. If my size will be available, I’d purchase, but this is one of the best iterations so far this year. I’m just biased towards the palette.
