These past few days have brought us several different images of the Air Jordan 9 Low Pantone that managed to give us a pretty solid look at the entire shoe. Not too long ago, all we had was a close-up shot of the shoe that didn’t really show much, but these latest images of the shoe show it from different many different angles to give us a real good feel for what the shoe is going to look like.

The new images show that the shoe will in fact come in an all-Pantone (Carolina blue) upper done out of a leather and suede construction. The tonal appearance of the shoe is contrasted by the white accents found on the sole unit and “23” branding on the tongue. In addition to the white accents, there are also hits of black placed on the Jumpman globe branding on the heel, lining and tongue tag of the shoe. An additional Jumpman is spotted on the midsole to complete the major attributes of the shoe. Once we get the release date, will these Air Jordan 9 Lows be on your watch list? Sound off in the comments below.

This has potential to do well since the Pantone colorway is highly coveted on Jordan Brand sneakers. This Air Jordan 9 Low may actually do well for itself.

According to zsneakerheadz, the the Air Jordan 12 Wings we showed you yesterday could be very limited if/when it ends up releasing. How limited? About 12,000 pairs. It’s also being rumored that the shoe could also possibly come in a special white Jordan Brand box like the one you see above.

The new image of the shoe shows that this new colorway closely resembles the Air Jordan 12 Playoffs. With the only major difference being the addition of the Gold accents placed on the eyelets and midsole region of the shoe. The gold placed on the midsole region also had the words “WINGS” placed on it, hence the nickname of the shoe. Another feature on the shoe that cannot be seen on this picture is the “Wings” logo from the classic poster being placed on the heel. No word yet on when the shoe will release but there are rumors circulating that this may be a Fall season release.

I like it. Black, white and gold..what’s not to love? Sad to hear that they may be limited to only 12,000. If you thought the Air Jordan 12 The Master release surprised you in how fast they sold, wait until people begin to her these are limited to 12,000. There goes my chance at getting a pair.

For the most part, all of the Air Jordan 5 Low models that we know about this year have been a bit uninspiring. Aside from the majority not liking the look of the Air Jordan 5 Low, a lot of people are also complaining that the colors are boring or simply lazy. The upcoming Air Jordan 5 Low Neymar, is anything but as the shoe comes covered in a 3M upper!

Said to pay homage to one of the greatest soccer players in the world, the entire shoe’s upper comes covered in 3M detailing. If that wasn’t enough to garner people’s attention the shoe also features cement speckling all over the upper, Infrared and black detailing throughout the shoe, and Neymar?s number 10 and Jordan’s number 23 by the heels of both shoes. We still have no idea when the shoe will release or how limited it’s going to be, but were pretty sure it’s garnering more interest than any of the Air Jordan 5 Low models we’ve seen this year.

I have a feeling that the shoe will do better than any of the Air Jordan 5 Low releases we’ve seen all year. Not only does it look flashy, but a lot of soccer/Neymar fans are going to want to get a pair as well.

Last month we got confirmation that the Air Jordan 16 Midnight Navy was going to get the retro treatment sometime this year. Although we still do not know when the shoes are going to drop, a new image of the shoe recently surfaced. Today we get a look at the backside of the shoe.

The Air Jordan 16 originally released back in 2001. Ever since, we only saw the shoe release one more along with the Air Jordan 7 as a part of the CDP. The shoe comes in a white leather upper contrasted by the Midnight Navy placed throughout the shoe such as on the lining,  shroud, toebox, tongue and midsole. This is the type of Jordan that people either hate or love. What side do you fall one? Stay tuned for more info and images regarding this potential release.

The shroud is the main distinct feature on the shoe. If you like the shroud you probably like the shoe. I’m not sold on the JB release, the colorway is decent but not on this model.

The post Who’s Hyped To Hear That The Air Jordan 16 Midnight Navy Is Returning? appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

Last weekend we let you know that the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Metallic Navy was set to get the retro and remastered treatment. Only one picture of the shoe was available last week but today we have another image of the shoe to give you a better idea of what the shoe is setto look like.

This OG colorway of the Air Jordan 1 that initially released back in 1985 is making a comeback 21 years later. I’m pretty sure a lot of our readers are smiling ear to ear the moment they heard this news. Very simple in color scheme, the Air Jordan 1 High comes constructed out of a white leather upper that’s nicely contrasted by the hits of Metallic Navy placed all over the shoe in areas such as the lining, outsole, collar, Wings branding, Nike Swoosh on the side panels and of course, the Nike Air branding on the tongue. White laces and a white midsole complete the major features on the shoe. Said to be dropping on June 4th for $160, are you looking forward to this release?

Underrated OG colorway of the Air Jordan 1 High. The fact that it will come with Nike branding makes me feel like it’s going to be a hot commodity come June.

Air Jordan 1 Chicago, check. Air Jordan 2 Wing It, check. Air Jordan 12 French Blue, TBD. Ever since making his return to the WWE, Shane McMahon has been seen wearing a couple of different Air Jordan sneakers to WWE events. Of course, Jordan Brand took notice when they saw him wearing the Air Jordan 1 Chicago, so they took it upon themselves to gift Shane a pretty sweet care package full of Jordan retros. The only shoe we were sure that Shane received in the care package was the Air Jordan 2 Wing It. We now possibly know that another one of the pairs was the Air Jordan 12 French Blue. Does Shane like them? Just check out the tweet above and see for yourself. Will Shane make an appearance on RAW tomorrow night? If so, will he be wearing the French Blue 12s? Is this the best retro that he’s worn? With the shoe set to release March 26th for $190, be sure to keep up with our Air Jordan 12 French Blue for all the latest information regarding this upcoming release.

International football superstar Neymar Jr. has the rare distinction of getting his own Air Jordan release, and it pays refreshing homage to the awesome “speckle” detailing seen on the sharks-tooth design on the midsole. Also featured in this special edition release is some Neymar-specific details like the “10” number stitched on the upper as well as the unique Neymar x Jordan logo on the insole. Need a closer look?

Jordan Brand has been revamping the Air Jordan 1 Low as of late by adding the OG ‘Nike Air’ branding on the tongue and bringing back a number of original colorways to the low-top. The likes of Bred, Royal, Shadow, Varsity Red, and now this oft-forgotten ‘Midnight Navy’ shade have all created an original aesthetic despite most only being featured on the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG. The Navy portions came equipped with a Metallic sheen when originally released in 1985, but here the Jumpman skips out on that tooling for matte look. Check out Nike’s official images of the latest Air Jordan 1 Retro Low pair and grab your size on March 19th for $130 USD.

The more we see of the Air Jordan 9 Low Pantone, the better feeling we have that they are in fact going to release at some point down the line. Today we take a look at the latest image that shows the shoe in its entirety.

The Jordan 9 Low comes in a Pantone (light blue) leather upper complimented by tonal laces and the dark grey hits found on the lining, and branding on the tongue and heel. A red insole is found inside, while the Jumpman on the all-white sole unit also comes in light blue. With the success the Pantone colorway has had on Jordans in the past, do you think this Air Jordan 9 Low has the potential of selling out fast? Let us know in the comments below if you plan on picking up a pair if and when Jordan Brand announces a release date.

Author’s Take

I’ve never been much of a Pantone guy. At the end of the day, it’s a baby blue shoe, and I really don’t mess with that hue regardless of the hype surrounding it.

The post The Latest Look On The Air Jordan 9 Low Pantone appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

The Air Jordan 4 Dunk From Above is a very unique looking version of the Air Jordan 4. Two features on the shoe that we’re not used to seeing on the model help distinguish this pair from anything we’ve seen on the model in the past. Let’s take another look.

The first feature that makes the colorway unique is the fact that the upper is made out of a navy blue leather. We’ve seen, red, black, white on the 4s uppers, but rarely (if ever) have we seen a navy blue leather on the upper. The second feature we’re not accustomed to seeing on the shoe is the gum bottom outsole. Again, we’ve seen, white, black, translucent, but never a gum bottom. Are you diggin’ these two features? If so, you don’t have to wait much longer to get your hands on a pair as they’re set to drop March 19th for the retail price of $190. Still on the fence about this “different” looking Air Jordan 4? Make sure you visit our Air Jordan 4 Dunk From Above hub page for all the latest news and images of next weekend’s release.

This will be my first Air Jordan cop of the year. Really looking forward to this release. Love the navy blue upper, love the gum bottom even more.

The Air Jordan 12 The Master did really well and managed to sell out instantly even if it wasn’t an OG colorway. Today we take a look at another brand new colorway of the Air Jordan 12 that happens to have a little bit of an OG feel to it. Let’s take a sneak peak at the Air Jordan 12 Golden Wings.

Right off the bat you can tell that this Jordan 12 shares the same color blocking as the Air Jordan 12 Playoffs. The shoe manages to distinguish itself from the Playoff 12s by the use of the gold accents found on eyelets and the small area on the side panels. The shoe also appears to have the text “wings” on the side of the shoe which leads us to believe there is some sort of theme to this potential release as well. No word yet on when or if these will release, but stay tuned to find out all of the latest information regarding thispotential release.

If the Air Jordan 12 Playoffs and The Master had a love child, this is what it would look like. It’s the best of both worlds, and I love it. If these release, I’m all on them!

The Air Jordan 5 Low Fire Red dropped this morning. Did you decide to pull the trigger and get a pair? If you’re still on the fence on this release we have one final look at the shoe to help you make up your mind.

The low-top Air Jordan 5 comes in a white upper accented by the black and Fired Red hits placed on the shoe’s upper and sole unit. Notable features on the shoe include the black netting, two-toned midsole, black tongue, red lining, Jumpman branding on the tongue and heel and the icy translucent outsole. You’ve seen enough of the shoe already, so tell us, did you drop $175 on them this morning? If you’re still iffy about this release, hit up out Air Jordan 5 Low Fire Red hub page for all the info we have on the shoe.

Author’s Take

I didn’t get a pair since I’m not really diggin’ the way the Jordan 5 looks as a low-top. The colorway is decent, but not good enough to make me want a pair.

Available on March 12, the Air Jordan 5 Low Fire Red is the latest classic colorway from the Jordan Brand retro archives to receive the low-cut treatment. While there are subtle differences between the two, the low-cut has a life of its own and is perfect for the spring and summer months. Sneakerheads can look forward to seeing this quite a bit once the weather gets warmer.

The post Review: Air Jordan 5 Low Fire Red (Video) appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

Release Date: April 30, 2016
Price: $160

A standout David Letterman-inspired Air Jordan 1 will be releasing this year, as the model draws inspiration from the day MJ made a guest appearance on the David Letterman Show, fresh off his 63-point playoff performance against the Boston Celtics during the first round of the 1986 Playoffs.

Essentially utilizing what Jordan wore for the interview, the sneaker flaunts bright crimson as its majority tone across the leather upper, in addition to Midnight Navy and University Blue detailing for a bold touch of contrast. Most prominently located on the laces, tongue, inner lining, Swoosh branding and outsole, a white midsole is sandwiched in between to finish off the profile.

Finally, a special graphic is imprinted on the insoles, consisting of a microphone along with the words “On Air” to coordinate with its respective theme.

Author’s Take:

Renz Ofiaza, News: The silhouette is a clear classic so it’s something I’ll never get tired off. If you check out the video above, you do see the inspiration easily, but in general, I don’t like the execution. I’m just not a fan of the colorway overall.
