Nike Air Jordan 3 OG 88 True Blue (Black Friday 2016)

Release Date: November 25, 2016
Price: $220

It is being reported by Sole Collector that a retailer has confirmed with them that the Air Jordan 3 True Blue will be returning on Black Friday 2016 with the beloved Nike Air branding on the heel.

The Air Jordan 3 True Blue last released in 2011 but has never been retroed with the Nike Air branding on the heel. After Jordan Brand announced in August of 2014 that the Air Jordan 3 silhouette would be put into the vault for an undisclosed period of time and nobody really knew when we would ever see the sneaker again. It looks like we have our answer now.

If things stay the same then we expect the Air Jordan 3 OG 88 True Blue to retail for $220 and for it to release on November 25th.

Is Nike Retroing The Kobe 1 In More Colorways

Earlier this week we gave you insight on an upcoming Nike Kobe collection dubbed the Kobe FTB Collection, which features all 11 Nike Kobe signature shoes and the Huarache 2k4 in a series of tonal colorways. This is indeed a proper way to open the door wide open for Nike Kobe Retros as a whole, and it appears that alongside the Sail/Sail colorway confirmed for March 19th, Nike also has a black snakeskin version that we can, for now, dub the “Black Mamba” version of his first signature shoe. It features a very Prelude-like aesthetic thanks to the animal skin, with gold detailing and gum sole adding to the off-the-court feel. Stay tuned for more updates and we’ll bring you the latest on the Kobe Fade To Black Collection and more Kobe Retro releases like this.

Persian Violet Highlights This Nike Air Classic BW

Nike Air Classic BW Nike Air Classic BW 1 Nike Air Classic BW 2

Aside from Skepta’s blacked-out pair and a recent black/bright crimson colorway, the Nike Air Classic BW is unveiled in yet another finish of Persian Violet this season, which actually released a few years earlier.

Comprised of breathable mesh and tonal suede overlays across its predominantly black upper, the defining tone is evident on the Swoosh branding, collar section, inner lining, tongue and rear portion of its rubber sole unit. The palette is capped off with the application of white accents gracing the heel counter and flowing towards the midsole, as it’s also implemented on the leather piping that encompasses its profile.

Finished off with matching black laces and outsole, you can purchase this latest variation of the model at select Nike stores nationwide now.

I haven’t been aware of this model until recently with all the recent colorways. I do like its retro design overall. This finish is solid, but not for me.

Author’s Take

Not a bad looking shoe, but I wouldn’t pick it up in this colorway. Nike should make new colorways of this sneaker that can be embraced more openly by the masses.

What Did James Harden Do With All Of His Nike Sneakers After Signing With adidas

James Harden joined team adidas at the end of 2015 and hasn’t looked back ever since. While he can’t get his own signature sneaker just yet, it’s pretty much a guarantee that he’ll be getting his own shoe with the Three Stripes either at the end of this year or at the beginning of 2017.

Prior to being signed to adidas James Harden was a Nike athlete so you can imagine the crazy collection of Nikes/Air Jordans that he had. But now that he’s team adidas he has no more use for his Nikes. So what did he do with them? According to James he gave them all to his mom.

I gave them to my mom and told her to do whatever with them,” Harden said in an interview with Sole Collector during the 2016 NBA All-Star weekend. “I don?t need them anymore.”

James is a really busy guy so it would probably take him a long time to get rid of all those shoes. It’s probably safe to assume that James’ mom will give them away to friends, family and other people in need. By the way, Harden seems to be looking forward to his future with adidas.

“I?m very excited about the direction adidas is going. Just their entire swagger and approach fits me very well.”

The Nike Air Huarache International just recently made its return, but that’s not stopping Nike from releasing premium versions of the shoe. Today we take a look at what is being called the Nike Air Huarache International Premium Cloud And Sky Pack.

Inspired by thy sky and clouds from above, the two-pair pack dons tonal looks that we usually see above our head. Coming in a Blue Lagoon or Wolf Grey upper, the nubuck, neoprene and mesh constructed upper take on the monochromatic look all over the upper which includes the branding and laces on the shoe. Both pairs come with white speckled midsoles sitting on top of gum bottom outsoles. A white inner lining cleans things up a bit to balance out the look of the shoe. Thoughts on the Cloud and Sky theme on the Nike Air Huarache International Premium? Let us know in the comments below, and while you’re at it, pick up a pair of your own at select retailers.

Author’s Take

I like the tonal look paired up with the speckled midsole and gum bottom outsole. I just wish it was done on the Nike Air Huarache Run on not on the International.

I passed on the yellow and white colorway and if the new colorway will be white and purple then I also plan on passing on that pair. Hopefully more colorways are released in the future. Maybe red and white?

Air Jordan 3 True Blue With Nike Air Releasing On Black Friday

Black Friday is always a time to expect brands to come forward with some of the best releases of the year. Sole Collector reports that Jordan Brand won’t disappoint this Black Friday 2016, as a retailer has confirmed with them that the Air Jordan 3 “True Blue”, complete with Nike Air on the heel, will release to the masses. This is exciting news for Jordan fanatics considering Nike Air hasn’t appeared on this particular colorway since the original release in 1988 (as seen in the photo above), because the 2003, 2009, and 2011 Retro versions all had that original logo on the heel-tab. Stay tuned for more updates, but keep the True Blue 3s in mind as we approach Black Friday 2016.

The Spring Will Bring Us This Nike Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit Low In University Red

Nike Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit 1 Nike Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit 2 Nike Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit 3

The Nike Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit is one of Nike’s most popular silhouettes at the moment ever since it arrived on the scene a few weeks ago. So it makes perfect sense for Nike to give us more colorways of the new lightweight lifestyle shoe.

One of those new colorways that will be arriving at Nike Sportswear retailers later this Spring is this University Red option that you see above. Coming in a low-top cut that is better suited for the warm weather of Spring and Summer, this Air Force 1 Ultra Flyknit features a full University Red upper with Flyknit dominating most of the shoe and leather detailing landing on the Swoosh and heel tab. Serving as a touch of contrast are white hits on the tongue branding and midsole/outsole with translucent hits on the outsole.

What are your thoughts on this Spring colorway of the new and improved Air Force 1?

via: asphaltgold


Author’s Take

I think this is going to be one of the most popular colorways of the Spring/Summer because what’s not to like about a red Air Force 1, especially when it’s made of Flyknit?
