Air Jordan 1 Satin Royal Releasing at Walters & Active Athlete
By SoleInsider
In another unprecedented move by Jordan Brand, a surprise release of the Satin Air Jordan 1 Royal is taking place exclusively at two of the oldest Jordan accounts in the United States. Walter’s in Atlanta and Active Athlete in Houston are the two Jordan-lifer accounts dropping the 700 numbered pairs when they open to the public in the morning. We last saw the Air Jordan 1 Royal Satin on the feet of Jordan Special Projects director Gemo Wong at the Agenda Tradeshow a few weeks back but as Jordan noted they will release as a surprise.
The highly anticipated, highly coveted, super-hyped KAWS x Air Jordan 4 finally dropped today! Most of us wanted a pair, very few of us were actually able to acquire one. How many of our readers managed to cop a pair? If I was a betting man, I’d say less than 0.05% (Don’t ask me how I came up with that percentage, it just felt right while I was typing it).
For all of us who went home empty handed, I’ve gathered a few dope #ArtonFire KAWS x Air Jordan 4 inspired pieces I came across while on IG, and decided to share with you guys to help with the big fat L most of us took today. Get a good look at the art below and be sure to tap on the artist’s name to see more of their work on IG!

Art comes in many forms and style, and above you will see exactly what I’m talking about. eatlikeyoureondeathrow__ is seen doing what she does best by creating edible KAWS art showing the big fat L we all got once we knew there was no chance in hell we’d be able to get a pair of the KAWS x Air Jordan 4. Damn.

If there was ever a sketch/drawing that represented how we all felt after we didn’t get a call back from the raffle for the KAWS x Air Jordan 4 raffle, michaellambard hit it on the nose with this piece. One of his latest creations says it all. Sad, disappointed, heart-broken, depressed all rolled up into one. Damn.

Graphic Designer and Illustrator Christopher Mineses shares one of his latest pieces with us. It portrays His Airness himself rocking the KAWS x Air Jordan 4 all while wearing the iconic KAWS gloves. Judging by his stance, it looks like even Jordan was a bit worn out trying to secure a pair.

The day is almost here ladies and gentlemen. In a few hours we’ll be seeing the return of the Air Jordan 1 High OG Royal to the delight of many Jordan 1 fanatics.
Last released in 2013 in limited quantities, Jordan Brand has given us what we asked for and brought back the OG colorway of the Jordan 1 four years later. Not only is there more pairs this time around, but the general consensus is that the materials are also better this time around. This iconic sneakers comes covered in a Black smooth leather upper with Varsity Royal tumbled leather adorning the ankle, heel, toebox, Nike Swoosh, the “NIKE AIR” branding on the tongue, and the outsole. A white midsole balances things out on what is sure to be one of the best drops of 2017. Will you be grabbing a pair tomorrow? Or better said, HOW MANY pairs will you be going after?
With all of the retro heat releasing and a new dedication to lifestyle-centric takes on old classics, it’s easy to forget that Jordan Brand is still pushing some of the finest performance models in the basketball game today. The Air Jordan 31 Low recently released in a number of ‘PE’ looks for Jordan Brand schools in honor of March Madness, and now the Jordan 31 Low Oreo will be on the way for an April 15th release, showing that the model can be just as stylish off the court as it can be functional while on it.
This isn’t your usual take on the whole cookies and cream theme though, as a pink hue hits the woven toecap in the gradual gradient that eventual leads to an Air Jordan 1 inspired leather heel construction complete with medial side ‘Wings’ branding on the ankle collar. The Jumpman branding is barely visible through matching stitching and an embossed leather tongue logo for a premium finish. Check out more detailed shots below and grab the Oreo Jordan 31 Low on 4/15 for $160.
A special variation of the Air Jordan 31 will be dropping next month, as it ties perfectly with Russell Westbrook’s aesthetic.

Featuring flyweave at the midfoot and forefoot, elephant print detailing graces the heel portion, while tooling from the Air Jordan 30 with the signature galaxy print solidifies its overall build. Finally, an icy outsole with the text ?Why? and ?Not? completes respective moniker.
