After looking at some on-feet images of this luxurious Air Jordan 4 last week, we now get some up close and detailed images of the shoe that give us a pretty good look at what to expect if we plan on buying a pair when they release.

These new detailed images of the Air Jordan 4 PRM Snakeskin give us a good look at the snakeskin material that is used on the upper as well as the premium tumbled leather placed 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.

There is still no release date for this premium Air Jordan 4 but they should release some time this Summer for $400.

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.

Were you able to cop the Air Jordan 2 Wing It that released this past weekend? Just like the Air Jordan 12 The Master colorway from last week, many people seemed to have liked this colorway of the Air Jordan 2.

Keeping things in the Air Jordan 2 family is this new PE colorway that was made specifically for Marquette University. Looking at the shoe we can see that this is a low-top version of the Air Jordan 2 and features a navy leather upper with Varsity Maize detailing on the eyelets, midsole, outsole, and Marquette logo on the tongue. University Blue accents also make an appearance on the laces, side panels and insoles to complete the Marquette color scheme. Capping things off is an icy translucent outsole.

Author’s Take

Pretty dope colorway of the Air Jordan 2 but it would have looked better if it was an original low-top instead of a Low.

News surfaced last year of Jordan Brand releasing another Air Jordan 10 “City” Pack in 2016. The cities that are expected to be represented in the pack include New York, Los Angeles, Charlotte and Chicago.

The Air Jordan 10 NYC will come in a black metallic leather upper that takes care of the entire base of the shoe. Both smooth and tumbled leather are found on the upper, which is nicely contrasted by the hits of gold accents found in the branding that include the NYC lettering found close to the ankle collar of the shoe. Additional gold hits are spotted on the striped heel tab. A set of black laces, lining and a sole unit complete the tonal look of the shoe.

Author’s Takes

Look a lot like the Air Jordan 10 OVO just without the stingray detailing. Will that be the only reason that these sit on shelves and the OVOs don’t? This colorway is too plain for me so I won’t be picking up a pair.

The post Air Jordan 10 NYC appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

Releasing next month will be the Air Jordan 10 NYC which will be one of four sneakers from the upcoming Air Jordan 10 City Pack.

It is believed that the Air Jordan 10 NYC draws inspiration from the iconic and historic State of Liberty that is one of the most recognizable figures in the entire world. Black leather dominates the upper with tumbled leather detailing appearing on the mudguard, ankle and eyestay. Adding some contrast are hits of gold on the striped heel tab, speckling on the outsole and the NYC branding by the ankle.

What are your thoughts on this Air Jordan 10? Is it too similar to the OVO colorway that just released? Check out our Air Jordan 10 NYC launch page for additional images, videos and other updates regarding this release.

The Air Jordan 5 Low borrows a very familiar color scheme from its original high-top counterpart for this “Fire Red” edition. Exactly the same OG colorway of the standard Air Jordan 5 that you know, love, and saw on Michael Jordan’s feet back in 1990, the new low-top features a white leather upper with black and Fire Red accents throughout. In case you aren’t already familiar enough with the iconic colorway, here’s a look at the official images of the shoe that hits Jordan Brand retailers this Saturday, March 12th in full family sizing.

We’re only a couple months away from the release of this brand new colorway of the Air Jordan 10 that draws inspiration from the flag of Chicago.

We have already gotten a few different looks at this vibrant colorway of the Air Jordan 10 but today we get some new up-close images at the shoe which show that the material on the upper looks to be nylon instead of the traditional leather build that this silhouette uses. The only place where we see leather is on the mudguard with the inclusion of tumbled leather. Even the tongue and eyestay are composed of nylon.

Take a look at these new images above and let us know if you plan on picking up a pair come May 14th. Retail price will be $190. Also check in with our Air Jordan 10 Chicago Flag launch page for additional images, videos and other updates regarding this release.

Author’s Take

The only reason I would pick up this pair of 10s is if I were from the city of Chicago or lived there because the inspiration/theme looks to be on point. But since I don?t these are a pass for me.

During the huge All-Star Weekend announcement of the Air Jordan Kobe auctions on eBay, Jordan Brand promised a “special announcement” at noon on Sunday, February 14th. Many presumed that the aforementioned announcement would be pertaining to a retail release of the Air Jordan Kobe Pack, but such an announcement never really came. Over the last couple of weeks, the white/purple/yellow Air Jordans have begun to appear on social media through certain celebrity channels, and today Michael Jordan’s son Marcus, who is poised to open doors to Trophy Room on late May, just unveiled some of the best photos yet of the Air Jordan Kobe Pack. It features model-specific dustbags, a double-sized box with two compartments for the shoes, and other markings that represent Kobe Bryant and, of course, Jordan Brand. A retail release hasn’t been confirmed yet, but if these were to drop, don’t be surprised if they become available near Kobe’s final game in mid-April.

The crossover between pro-wrestling entertainment and sneaker culture isn’t a small intersection. In fact, Shane McMahon, son of Vince McMahon, was known to do his signature trot and shimmy around the ring in Air Jordans, and for his surprising return to the ring last week, he whipped out the Chicago 1s in classic Shane-O-Mac fashion. Currently, the WWE minority owner is in Chicago for a taping of RAW, and he just revealed through Twitter that he gets hooked up with free Jordans directly from the brand. Our question is – what will he lace up during his monumental match-up against The Undertaker in Wrestlemania on April 3rd?

This past weekend we saw lots of Air Jordan releases which were highlighted by a white and pink women’s colorway of the Air Jordan 12 that for some reason many men were going crazy over and a brand new white and black colorway of the Air Jordan 2 inspired by an ad from the 80’s.

Just when we thought that all of the senseless sneaker violence was over since Jordan Brand has been making more than enough retros for everyone, another incident occurred this past weekend. Reported by CBS Minnesota two men were shot on Saturday morning when police received a phone call at around 10:00am of gun shots being fired off near a Foot Locker parking lot. Police marked more than a dozen casings on the ground following the shooting which resulted in two people being injured. Thankfully the two victims did not suffer life-threatening injuries.

CBS reports that the lineup at the Foot Locker was for either the Air Jordan 2 Wing It or the Air Jordan 12 GS Vivid Pink which caused chaos in different parts of the country.

Police do not currently have anyone in custody but have several witnesses they are interviewing to piece this together.

Author’s Take

Great idea by Warner Bros. and Jordan Brand to release apparel to accompany the shoes. If I do end up buying the shoes I might pick up a Tune Squad jersey or Space Jam hat. Bringing the 90’s back in style!

Set to drop later this month, the anticipation for the Air Jordan 12 French Blue is building up to a fever pitch. The shoe is returning after a 12-year absence and since then the Air Jordan 12 has only grown in stature so you can bet this will be one of the retros to watch for not only in March but for the whole year as well. Worn by legendary shooting guards like Kobe Bryant, Ray Allen and Richard Hamilton, the Air Jordan 12 French Blue has quite the legacy even though MJ never rocked them. Will you be copping when these drop?

Marquette has been a Jordan Brand school for quite some time, but it’s rare to see the Big East school benefit from player exclusives in the same way that other Jumpman sponsored programs do. It looks like that’s all slated to change as the Golden Eagles head into the ‘Big Dance’ with their very own Air Jordan 2 Low PE. One of the rarer retros in the Jumpman archives, The AJ 2 Low returns with a smooth leather upper drenched in Midnight Navy while Varsity Maize and University Blue accents lend a helping hand. Marquette’s ‘MU’ lettering hits the tongue and icy outsole so there’s no doubting who this pair was made for. Check out more of this Jordan 2 Low exclusive below and we’ll keep you updated on more March Madness sneaker related news right here on Sneaker News.

Jordan Brand is ready to release another version of the Air Jordan 1 Mid heavily inspired by the coveted Lance Mountain collaborative edition of the Air Jordan 1 High with Nike SB. Previously dropping a black colorway with red leather peaking out from behind, now those of you that missed out on the painted Lance Mountain collab have a white colorway as an alternative option, as well. Peep a full preview of the new Air Jordan 1 Mid here, and expect them at select Jordan Brand retailers later this spring.

You can expect more of the Air Jordan 6 in 2016. Today we get a preview of two upcoming colorways that stray as far as possible from OG territory, as unique color blockings and vibrant accents are your’s for the taking. The first pair utilizes a tonal Black and Grey leather and suede combination. The overall effect is reminiscent of the Air Jordan 7 “Bordeaux”‘s base but accompanied by an icy blue outsole. Then there’s the outlier of a white leather upper featuring a semi-translucent Volt bottom. This vibrant aesthetic is something you’d find in a Space Jam related category for how bold the 90s era colors are, from the lime green to Bright Crimson speckling throughout. There’s no word yet in regards to the size run of each pair, but we wouldn’t be surprised to see these designated as GS exclusives. Which Jordan 6 colorway are you a fan of? Check out a full look below and we’ll keep you updated on the latest Jordan release dates right here on Sneaker News.
