A couple of years ago, University of Louisville head coach Rick Pitino said that Nike schools boast a serious recruiting advantage over say, his adidas sponsored Cardinals. That might’ve changed given the recent Yeezy developments, but it’s hard not to agree with the legendary coach when you see all of the sweet gear that the UNC Tar Heels boast throughout the season. Today we get a look at two brand new UNC PEs ranging from a fresh Carolina Blue gradient on the Air Jordan 31 and a boldly branded Jordan Super.Fly 5 PO featuring a clean white upper with the Tar Heels’ crest on the brand new midfoot strap overlay.

Yesterday we got word that the latest Air Jordan 5 retro will retail for a premium Pinnacle price point of $400 USD when it releases next Saturday, February 11th. This isn’t any old remastered retro though, as Jordan Brand has taken the inspiration of the P51 shark squadron mustang fighter jet to the next level with the Air Jordan 5 “Take Flight”.

That look will also be featured on an exclusive limited edition box to stand out from the pack. Other new updates feature laser etching on the ventilated side panel instead of the plastic webbing that made the Air Jordan 5 such a head-turning model to begin with.

Jordan Brand’s annual Black History Month Collection took a surprising left turn this year, as the Jumpman included two head-turning Air Jordan 1 creations that focused on utilizing the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG silhouette instead of the usual Air Jordan 1 Mid model, while the brand even brought back an oft-forgotten trainer from the early 2000s in the Jordan Trunner LX. The differences from years past don’t stop there either, as today we get official photos of the coming Air Jordan 1 “BHM” for adult sizes, slated to release on February 11th.

The simple yet premium tumbled black leather of the Jordan 1 BHM ditches the prints and patterns native to Jordan Brand’s usual Black History Month celebration. Instead, the Jumpman added removable and swappable velcro patches on the Wings branding, the Swoosh side panels, and the alternating tongue logos featuring traditional Jumpman logos and Nike’s ‘BHM’ crest. What results is a simple, refined look perfect for any occasion. We just hope that we see more of the removable patches on the Wings and Swoosh branding in more upcoming Air Jordan 1 offerings. What do you think of the look?

Check out more official photos of this year’s Air Jordan 1 BHM below and while we don’t have an exact price point for this pair yet, know that we’ll keep you updated via our Air Jordan Release Dates page.

The leather uppers may all be one hue, but they vary in texture thanks to the perforated paneling that give the duo the “perforated Pack” nickname. Get another look at each here, and don’t forget that they drop this Saturday, February 4th at Jordan Brand retailers like Renarts. Pairs are also available right now on eBay.

NBA All-Star Weekend is only a couple of weeks away which means one of the biggest sneaker release weeks of the year. While Nike Basketball won’t be releasing any “All Star” sneakers this year, Jordan Brand will be.

One of those All Star releases will be this brand new colorway of the Air Jordan 6. Looking at this shoe we see that it comes covered in an iridescent leather all throughout the upper that features color-changing qualities. Additional iridescent detailing can be seen on the aglets, with a black midsole and partially translucent outsole wrapping things up.

Expected to release on February 16th (Thursday) for $225, will you cop or drop?

Add another model to the ever-growing list of $400 Jordan retros to release at retail. The Air Jordan 5 “Take Flight” will release on February 11th, 2017 listed at the luxury price point given the militarized construction that takes cues from the P51 flight bomber jacket.

The Air Jordan 5 Take Flight is a part of a larger “Take Flight” Collection that saw the Air Jordan 8 “Sequoia” release earlier in the year alongside the original Air Jordan 15 retro. This is no normal Air Jordan 5 though, as the premium construction features a leather wrapped midsole for the first time ever, a new laser perforated ventilation unit on the side panel that does away with the original mesh insert, and a crazy oversized ‘Flight’ lace lock comprised of a similar leather.

The military inspiration is also accomplished through the overall colorway, as that familiar Sequoia green shade hits the entirety of the upper to contrast Jordan Brand’s signature Vachetta Tan lifestyle accent on the tongue. There’s no 3M reflective material to be found on the pair, and the midsole shark teeth, already inspired by a fighter plane, are hidden through that luxurious leather wrap. So do you plan on paying a Pinnacle-esque price of $400 USD for this pair?
