Let’s tell it like it is, the Air Jordan 5 Low is not doing as well as Jordan Brand anticipated. Most of the colorways that have released end up getting a price cut withing a week of the release date. Even the Air Jordan 5 Low Fire Red  that released not too long ago did not do that well considering it was an OG colorway. Up next is the Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks. Does this colorway have what it takes the give the Air Jordan 5 Low some good recognition.

Dubbed the “Knicks” due to similarity in colors between the shoes and the professional NBA team, the shoe comes dressed in a Deep Royal Blue nubuck upper nicely contrasted by the hits of Orange placed on the inside of the tongue, Jumpman on the tongue, shark teeth on the midsole, lace lock and Jumpman on the heel. In addition, a white sole unit and reflective tongue gives the shoe more of a Knicks feel. Lastly, clear netting on the side panels and tongue and the icy translucent outsole complete the look of the shoe. What do you think of the shoe? Priced at $175 and releasing on March 28th (Monday), does this shoe have what it takes to be considered a success?

Need more info on the shoe, be sure to visit our Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks launch page for additional images and details regarding this upcoming release.

The more I see it, the less I dislike it. That doesn’t mean I like the model, it just means that I can tolerate this colorway.  All in all I rate it a 6 out of 10.

This is my favorite colorway of the Air Jordan XXX so far. The black upper is a good look but I hope to see more variety in the near future.

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.

Has an opposing fanbase ever loved a foe as much as New York Knicks fans love Michael Jordan? They might admit to booing MJ and egging him on toward a double-nickel performance in his first game back to MSG post-retirement, but Knickerbocker fans have as profound a respect for His Airness as any NBA fanbase, perhaps because MJ enjoyed beating up on them so much. Jordan Brand is returning late this March with yet another Knicks reference atop the now frequently featured Air Jordan 5 Low. The bold Deep Royal Blue, Team Orange, and Midnight Navy combination keeps a bit of traditionalism in the form of translucent mesh side panels and an icy blue outsole. The Jordan 5 Low “Knicks” is slated to release on March 28th for $175. Check out a better view below and know that you can grab these Knicks Jordan 5 Lows from spots like Politics and right now on eBay.

The post Jordan Brand With Another Monday Release With The Air Jordan 5 Low ?Knicks? appeared first on Sneaker News.

Marcus Jordan hinted last week that this upcoming Holiday 2016 was going to be insane. We already knew about True Blue 3s, Cyber Monday 3s, and Space Jam 11s, but what else could there possibly be to top those three hits? According to Balt Sneaker Show, who disclosed the information in an interview with The Shoe Game, Jordan Brand will release a “Black Cat” Air Jordan 6 on New Years Eve. There are no photos for reference, but this is indication that an all-black Air Jordan 6 is in the works. The only other outright “Black Cat” releases are the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 4, so there’s a chance that the upcoming Air Jordan 6 “Black Cat” will feature some minor details like its predecessors. Stay tuned for more updates.

The Air Jordan 4 PRM Snakeskin is not like any Air Jordan 4 you have seen before. From the premium snakeskin upper to the tumbled leather overlays and tongue, it’s a unique look that will have sneakerheads talking. But what will also have everybody buzzing is the rumored low production run of 5,000 pairs and the $400 price tag. While sneakerheads might be happy to see such a bold and dramatically new interpretation of the Air Jordan 4, will it be worth the hassle and jump in price once they drop later this summer as expected?

The Air Jordan shoe that many of us mistakenly labeled a “Pinnacle” release is headed to stores this Saturday with a whopping $400 price-tag. Featuring a premium mix of materials on the upper such as a smooth tumbled leather and pony hair, this Air Jordan 4 Retro has been the subject of an ongoing debate regarding the rising prices of Jordan Retro shoes. Perhaps this release is why the French Blue 12s got postponed, because to justify $600 on two pairs of sneakers in one Saturday morning is tough to do. If you’re looking to cop, Oneness be one of the few retailers stocking them this coming weekend.

While the Air Jordan 9 Low Black/White is scheduled to drop next month, this Pantone variation of the silhouette will follow a couple of months after.

Essentially taking its colorway from the standardized color reproduction system, the defining tone consists of University Blue, which prominently graces the smooth leather upper, textured leather mudguard, tongue, laces and heel tab. Complementing accents of black are applied on the inner lining, tongue label and rear, while it all rests atop a clean white rubber sole unit.

Rounded out with additional branding on the rear with an embroidered “23,” you can purchase this pair at select JB and Nike accounts on June 11 for a retail price tag of $170.

Stay tuned in to our official Air Jordan 9 Low Pantone launch page for even more details.

Author’s Take

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.

With the Air Jordan 9 Low Black/White dropping next month, a bright rendition of the silhouette will be offered this Spring 2016 as well.

Sporting an eye-catching colorway of Infrared, the defining tone is essentially prominent across its smooth and textured leather upper, in addition to its rubble sole unit. To perfectly offset the dominant hue, black is implemented on the tongue, laces, inner lining, subtle speckling on its midsole and branding throughout.

Executing a solid two-tone theme, the model is rounded out with lime green accents gracing the heel tab branding. Retailing for $170, this variation of the Air Jordan 9 is expected to arrive in the following months.

Stay tuned in to KicksOnFire for further updates.

I’d prefer it in its original cut, but this colorway is pretty solid in this profile as well. I’m biased towards the palette in general. I think it’ll sell.

In just a few more weeks, the Air Jordan 17+ Copper will finally at store shelves nationwide, as the silhouette was last seen in 2002, fourteen years ago.

Sporting a luxurious and versatile build, the sneaker inherits a leather upper with the majority dipped in white, while the rear portion receives a premium touch with the application of an embossed crocodile detail in contrasting black. The defining accent is prominent on the eyelets and heel section for shimmering appeal, which also complements the overall palette perfectly.

Get a good look to help you decide, and stay tuned for a confirmed release date.

People always like to talk about the impact the Air Jordan line has had on casual wear and how some of them have become more lifestyle and less performance. However, that designation has rarely ever been applied to the Air Jordans after MJ’s Chicago Bulls playing days, but one shoe that definitely deserves a look as a luxury piece is the upcoming Air Jordan 17 Copper. Worn by His Airness during his final years in the NBA as a member of the Washington Wizards, the shoe’s croc skin features and metallic hits make it stand out from other 17s that Jordan wore but also from most Jordans. We’re finally getting a retro release soon so it will be interesting to see how this performs.
