Chicago’s own Don C has stepped out from lifelong friend Kanye West’s shadow to become a bonafide design star in his own right. His Just Don snapback line has grown into apparel collaborations with Mitchell & Ness, and his high profile team-up with Jordan Brand has taken the Air Jordan 2 to an entirely new level through premium quilted leather, suede, and head-turning colorways. Today we get a detailed look at the coming Just Don x Air Jordan 2 “Pink”, slated to release in limited numbers this Spring/Summer 2017 season.

Our detailed look comes from Instagram account S.Sam.Group, as the lifestyle shots show off the trendy shade of pastel pink throughout the Just Don Air Jordan 2 Pink and its luxurious construction. The quilted leather upper features contrasting touches of suede on the midfoot overlay while ‘Nike’ heel branding and ‘Wings’ tongue logos bring a vintage touch. The traditional red is the only other shade on this pair, found hidden on the outsole.

Jordan Brand continues to bring new and exciting ideas to the model that started it all in the Air Jordan 1. The “Rare Air” series swapped out the ‘Wings’ logo for a simple Air Jordan branding on the ankle collar while the general releases also introduced swappable velcro tongue patches. It was a surprising additional asset that brought some needed attention to the alternate colorways and you can still find pairs for well under retail. The Jumpman is introducing a similar feature with the coming Air Jordan 1 “BHM”, slated to release on February 11th.

Jordan Brand brings a premium Black/Metallic Gold colorway to this year’s Air Jordan 1 BHM, but perhaps the most interesting asset is the inclusion of removable velcro patches on the Swoosh side panel branding, the iconic ‘Wings’ logos, and the alternating ‘Air’ and ‘BHM’ logos on the tongue. The overall model features a simple all-black tumbled leather, so we’re excited to see what the alternate patches will look like. What do you think of the idea?

Check out the first teaser image of the Air Jordan 1 BHM below and stay tuned for more Air Jordan Release Dates for February 2017 right here on Sneaker News.

This Tuesday we previewed a rather odd University of North Carolina PE, as it featured a maroon and gold colorway instead of the traditional “Carolina Blue” accents throughout. The Air Jordan 31 “Coaches vs Cancer” was given to UNC in an effort to raise awareness and funding for the American Cancer Society in collaboration with the National Association of Basketball Coaches. Today we get to see yet another Air Jordan 31 Coaches vs Cancer PE, this time for Jordan Brand’s latest school, the Univesity of Michigan Wolverines.

The Michigan Wolverines’ Air Jordan 31 Coaches vs Cancer PE takes a more traditional approach, as the vibrant pink woven upper should remind you of the ongoing Kay Yow special edition offerings from both Nike Basketball and Jordan Brand for the fight against breast cancer. Michigan’s signature block-letter M logo can be found on the tongue while the icy outsole features a bold Michigan watermark so there’s no doubt as to which school this special edition Air Jordan XXX1 was made for. Check out more detailed shots below and stay tuned for more Jordan Brand updates right here on Sneaker News.

Jordan Brand?s February 2017 release slate kicks off with the introduction of the Air Jordan 4 ?Royalty?, a pair that references the classic ?Flight? championing silhouette?s lifestyle status through the use of luxurious suede and metallic gold accents. The Air Jordan 4 Royalty will be available in a full family size run on February 4th, 2017 for $190 USD and will be ready for purchase at a number or retailers through a general release despite the premium nature of the pair.

For those of you doubtful that you?ll be able to pick up the more limited OVO x Air Jordan 12 later this February during the NBA?s All-Star Weekend festivities, the Royalty 4s should serve as the perfect backup plan for the metallic hits on the restructured Jumpman branding on the heel, added gold shades on the visible air unit, and a simple black midsole to match the suede textile used throughout. Are you a fan of the first Air Jordan 4 release of 2017? There will be plenty more of this retro model in the future, but how do you think the Royalty colorway stacks up against the Motorsports, Pure Moneys, and coming Black/Royal 4s?
