First Look At The Air Jordan 1 High Premium Pearl White/Metallic Gold

Air Jordan 1 Retro High Premium  1 Air Jordan 1 Retro High Premium  2 Air Jordan 1 Retro High Premium  3 Air Jordan 1 Retro High Premium  4 Air Jordan 1 Retro High Premium  5 Air Jordan 1 Retro High Premium  6

No it doesn’t have Nike Air on the tongue. No it’s not an OG/Retro colorway. Regardless, it’s still pretty clean. Considered to be a premium version of the Air Jordan 1 High, today we take a look at the Air Jordan 1 High Premium Pearl White/Metallic Gold.

The Jordan 1 High comes dressed in some sort of textile material placed on the quarter panels. Accompanying the textile upper are the leather hits placed on the toe and heel region. The tongue appears to be made out of mesh, while the laces appear to be semi-waxed. Jumpman branding appears on the heel, tongue and red insole. The most notable feature on the shoe would have to be the metallic gold Nike Swoosh on the side panels. A translucent outsole and white midsole complete the appearance on the shoe. No word yet on when Jordan Brand will be releasing these, but let us know what you think in the comments below.

Nike’s never-ending stream of Air Jordan 1s continues with this pair of the Retro High Premium persuasion.

Author’s Take

The color combination used on the shoe is really really nice. I really don’t care that it doesn’t have Nike branding on it, I just like the shoe for what it is. Good work.

Author’s Take

The Air Jordan 17 holds a special place in my heart because it?s the first retro that I ever bought back in 2002 but in the black and chrome colorway. This Copper colorway is decent but that $250 price tag is something that pushes me away.

Every once in a while Jordan Brand throws us a curve ball and announce a retro right before they end up releasing them. The Air Jordan 10 Paris happens to be one of those instances. The shoe was recently unveiled and it’s already getting ready to release. Said to be inspired by the city of Paris, today we get a closer look at the Europe-exclusive Air Jordan 10.

The shoe will be a part of the Air Jordan 10 City Pack, the Air Jordan 10 Paris comes dressed in an upper with a unique texture that winds up giving the shoe a very distinct look. The dark upper is paired up with a translucent outsole to create some subtle contrast. Adding some color to the shoe are the purple hits placed in areas such as the outsole, heel pull tab and “75” embroidered on the ankle collar of the shoe. Jordan Brand has decided to make this pair from the City Pack a Europe exclusive. Releasing April 9th for for 190,00 ? or £155, how many of you are looking to get a pair.

Author’s Take

I’m okay with the shoe being a Europe-exclusive since I’m not a big fan of the Air Jordan 10. The unique upper is not something I’m feeling and the purple hits are not really my thing either.

Author’s Take

So the ladies are pretty much getting the same release as last year but just making it a low-top instead of a mid? Not sure how they feel about it but I feel that these will sit on shelves for a long time.

No doubt that this is my favorite colorway on the Jordan XXX. The all-black upper is a great look on the shoe and the translucent outsole works really well with the upper.

Author’s Takes

Andres Carrillo, News: When I first heard that this show would be black and red I was hoping that the hits of red would be more bold and vibrant than this. It’s not a bad colorway but I wouldn’t pay $250 for this shoe.

Dressed in Navy Blue upper on the ballistic mesh upper and the patent leather mudguard, this new colorway of the Air Jordan 11 also features a white midsole for contrast and a gum outsole. The gum outsole is a welcomed sight since we’ve never seen an Air Jordan 11 with a gum outsole.

Andres Carrillo, News: A navy blue Air Jordan 11? I like how Jordan Brand is thinking outside the box a bit and giving us a completely new colorway. The gum outsole is also a really nice look. The only thing I?m not too happy about is that it?s a low-top. Maybe once I see better images it?ll grow on me..

The Air Jordan 10 is one of my least favorite Air Jordan models. It has to come in a really nice colorway for me to want a pair. This is not one of those colorways that I?d want to pick up.

Another Sneak Peek At The 2016 Air Jordan 11 Space Jam

Over the weekend we got our first look at what is believed to be the 2016 version of the Air Jordan 11 Space Jam that is expected to release during the 2016 Holiday season. The pictures that surfaced show the heel of the shoe and what looks to be a Concord (purple) Jumpman like Michael Jordan’s PE version instead of royal blue like we’ve seen in the past. Another interesting feature was the fact that the 23 on the heel is stitched on instead of painted on so it won’t peel off.

The new image that surfaced today gives us a lateral view of the back half of the shoe that shows the patent leather that wraps the mudguard and heel as well as the outsole which is of the icly blue translucent variety.

Stay tuned 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.
