Jordan Brand and Spike Lee have a long-standing relationship based on the iconic commercials directed by the Brooklynite and starring his Mars Blackmon character and Michael Jordan. The ‘It’s Gotta Be The Shoes’ slogan helped sell some of the first Jordan signature models and Spike was rewarded with a number of hybrid silhouettes that combined the first numbered models advertised in the legendary TV spots. The Jordan Son of Mars features inspirations from the Air Jordan 3, Air Jordan 5, Air Jordan 6, and Air Jordan 20 and will release in a new “Fire Red” colorway in a full family size run on February 1st, 2017.

The Jordan Son of Mars Fire Red takes a simple approach with the Air Jordan 5 “Fire Red” immediately coming to mind. A white base is accented by Pure Platinum elephant print, an icy outsole, and touches of black and Fire Red throughout. What do you think of the look? Catch a full preview of the upcoming Jordan Son of Mars “Fire Red” below and be sure to head over to our always-updated Air Jordan Release Dates page for a better look at all of the coming Jumpman retros.

The Air Jordan 8 is ready to soar in 2017 with what should easily become one of the most popular colorways for the strapped-up silhouette ever, the “Take Flight” edition. Dropping to coincide with the return of the stealth bomber inspired OG Air Jordan 15, the Air Jordan 8 gets the look of a classic bomber jacket in olive green (Sequoia, officially) with black and safety orange accents throughout the cleanly blocked upper.

Look through the history of the Air Jordan 8, and you can see that this excellent execution is no doubt one of the best non-OG renditions of the shoe ever. But don’t take our word for it, see for yourself with these detailed images of the Air Jordan 8 “Take Flight” from our friends at Stadium Goods, who have the shoe in stock now before its official release on January 28th.

The further we get into the NBA season to the more and more colorways that we continue to see of the Air Jordan 31.

A couple of the latest pairs that we take a look at today are two that will not be getting a retail release because they’re of the PE variety. First we have the pair being worn by Jeff Green of the Orlando Magic which features an all-white Flyweave and leather upper with blue and black detailing on the branding, ankle, part of the midsole, and the outsole. Next is his teammate Bismack Biyombo’s pair which takes on an opposite look as his pair of 31s comes covered in black with blue detailing on the branding, Flywire and midsole.

Dez Bryant is constantly given upcoming Air Jordan releases weeks or even months before their actual retail debut. But the elite wide receiver from the Dallas Cowboys was recently given a couple of special sneakers from the Jumpman.

Seen above are two different PE colorways of the Air Jordan 1 designed exclusively for Bryant. The first takes on an orange hue and is inspired by Bryant’s Oklahoma State days. Next is a white, blue, and silver pair which represents his current team, the Cowboys. Both are finished off with Bryant’s “X” logo on the inner tongue as well as his signature on the insoles.

It must be nice to be an athlete at The University of Oregon these days.

The Oregon Ducks men’s basketball team was recently given a brand new saucy PE colorway of the Air Jordan 14 that will leave you drooling. Featuring a green nubuck throughout the majority of the upper, this Air Jordan 14 is offset by white tumbled leather detailing on the heel and midsole along with hits of black on the tongue, laces, inner liner, and outsole. The best feature of this pair of kicks is hands down the school?s duck logo that has been embossed throughout the entire upper of the shoe. The word “B.BALL” has then been added on the tongue to signify that this pair was designed for the men’s basketball team. Thoughts? Let us know in the comments below.

Dez Bryant and the Dallas Cowboys are headed to the playoffs, and in honor of the occasion, Jordan Brand had a very special gift for the star wide receiver that paid homage to no.88’s past with these Air Jordan 1 “Oklahoma State” PE. Just last week we saw Andre Johnson’s incredible Air Jordan 11 Miami Hurricanes PE, but Dez’s pair takes a simpler approach. The Air Jordan 1 Oklahoma State PE features a vibrant monochromatic upper throughout in a premium leather while hints of that premium Vachetta Tan hits the ankle collar. Dez Bryant’s signature ‘X’ logo is featured prominently on the inner tongue tag while his signature hits the matching orange insole. What do you think of this Air Jordan 1 player exclusive? Check out a detailed look below and hopefully we’ll get more shots of Bryant’s upcoming Air Jordan 1 “Dallas Cowboys” exclusive in the coming days.

Fittingly named the Air Jordan 31 All Star, this colorway takes inspiration from the city that was supposed to host the 2017 All Star Weekend, Charlotte. As many of you may know, Michael Jordan is the majority owner of the Hornets so that’s where the connection with the brand and team comes from.

This Jordan 31 features a black Flyweave upper in a honeycomb texture with iridescent detailing on the midsole, Swoosh, and ankle area. Hornets logos can also be seen on the inner tongues which means that this Jordan 31 may have been designed with the idea that Charlotte would be hosting the 2017 All Star festivities.

The Air Jordan 31 All Star is scheduled to release some time in February of 2017 (most likely during All Star Weekend). Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.
