Jordan Brand?s holiday 2016 lineup will cap off with the release of this Air Jordan 6 Black Cat, in addition to the GS-exclusive AJ 6 Purple Dynasty.

As suggested, a stealthy black leather composition with enlarged perforations to promote sufficient ventilation comprises its overall upper. The perforated portion also bears a reflective element to increase its visibility in low-lit conditions, and it’s activated when exposed to flash.

Unlike the all-black AJ 3 and AJ 4 renditions ? this variation is contrasted with pristine white accents gracing the midsole unit and Jumpman branding. Although not shown in this gallery, a graphic of its respective theme is also placed on the insoles.

Priced at $190, you can buy a pair at select Nike and JB stockists on Saturday, December 31st, 2016.

This forthcoming iteration of the Air Jordan 6 is reminiscent of last year?s Maroon finish, which was previously suggested to be a Hare-inspired colorway. Although, it’s actually an extension of Jordan Brand?s ?Alternate? color scheme for 2017.

Essentially paying tribute to the Chicago Bulls? theme with white, pure platinum and gym red accents covering its entire upper — the basketball sneaker is comprised of premium perforated leather and nubuck underlays.

This variation is also suggested to be the pair that MJ would?ve donned during the 1991 Playoffs, as the year ?1991? is prominent on the tongues. Finally, a translucent outsole rounds out the clean design profile.

The post Air Jordan 1 Retro “True Berry” Arrives For Girls appeared first on Sneaker News.

Jordan Brand was fairly straightforward with the inspiration behind the Air Jordan 31 – Michael Jordan’s first signature silhouette served as the blueprint for the design as it’s the first model since the Air Jordan 1 to feature a Nike Swoosh on the side panel while the premium leather touches, original Wings logo, and overall shape are all inspired by Peter Moore’s AJ1 design. The first few colorways to release have all been inspired by iconic Air Jordan 1 colorways, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise that the Air Jordan 1 “Royal” will be referenced atop the Air Jordan XXX1 in the new year.

Today we get a few teaser images of the upcoming Air Jordan 31 Royal slated to arrive at retailers on January 21st for $185 USD. The usual gradient hits the synthetic leather and Flyweave upper as a black heel gives way to a Game Royal shade by the toecap. Vibrant Game Royal accents hit throughout on the Jumpman branding as well. Does this mean that the Air Jordan 1 Royal will be releasing this January as well? We’ll have to wait and find out.

Check out more detailed angles below and stay tuned for more Air Jordan Release Dates right here on Sneaker News.
