We still don’t have a release date to report for the upcoming Air Jordan 4 Premium Wheat/Ginger, but today we bring you best images of the shoe that we’ve seen so far.

This Air Jordan 4 gets some Fall inspiration as the entire upper is covered in the popular wheat/flax/Timberland boot hue that gains popularity around this time of the year. A premium leather can be seen on the shoe while leather laces and quilted insoles provide the lifestyle/premium look. Last but not least we have a gum outsole.

What are your thoughts on this upcoming Air Jordan 4? Will you cop a pair if they ever release? Take a look at the latest images above and stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for release information.

Author’s Take

I love the Air Jordan 4 but I’m not really convinced with this colorway. If more color would have been added I think it may have looked better.

The Air Jordan 12 Nylon (Neoprene) won’t be the only Air Jordan 12 arriving at retailers this weekend. Also releasing exclusively for the ladies will be a new colorway known as the Plum Fog pair that is part of Jordan Brand’s Heiress Collection.

Looking at this new colorway of the Air Jordan 12, we can see that it comes colored with Light Bone on the majority of the upper that is constructed out of a premium leather material. Plum Fog is then placed on the inner liner, outsole, branding, and heel. Gold upper eyelets have been added to provide a nice pop to this colorway.

Look for the Air Jordan 12 GS Plum Fog at select Jordan Brand retailers beginning on September 10th for $160.

Much like the neon pink pair that released earlier this year, I feel that this colorway is suited more for the women. Easy pass on these for me.

Russell Westbrook Debuts New Jordan Lifestyle Shoe During China Tour

It looks like a new PE colorway of the Air Jordan 31 isn’t the only sneaker of note Russell Westbrook is breaking out during his current Flight Tour in Asia. Just spotted is an all-new Jordan Brand lifestyle shoe on his feet, which could be the sequel to the Westbrook 0. From what we can tell, the at this point unknown shoe is built atop the sole of the Vandal/Jordan 1 KO, and the upper seems to go for a militaristic aesthetic, at least for the camo and olive suede colorways we get a first look at. They also feature Westbrook’s “RW” logo on the tongue, further giving us reason to believe that they could be his next signature off-court model. Stay tuned to Sneaker News for more details.

The Air Jordan 13 Chinese Singles Day Debuts This Fall

Air Jordan 13 Air Jordan 13 1 Air Jordan 13 2 Air Jordan 13 3 Air Jordan 13 4 Air Jordan 13 5 Air Jordan 13 6 Air Jordan 13 7

A new variation of the Air Jordan 13 is suggested to make its debut this Fall 2016, as it’s rumored to pay tribute to Chinese Singles Day, which is essentially a holiday that celebrates the status of being single.

While it’s colored in a more Valentine’s Day-appropriate colorway of red with black accents, the sneaker also bears special insoles and a leather upper that reveals a unique graphic when rubbed off — similar to the previous ?Wings? release.

Set to release on November 11th, the same day that Singles? Day is celebrated, it’s still unclear if this pair will be a China-exclusive only.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for more updates.

Author’s Take

Hopefully it’s not exclusive overseas. This color combo is a classic and it looks solid on the silhouette. I’m sure a lot of fans will appreciate a pair, even if they’re not single (haha).

The Air Jordan 1 Banned From 2016 And 2013 Are Extremely Different


Did you grab the Air Jordan 1 “Banned” over the weekend? If you did, you probably noticed the premium Remastered construction that brought back a tumbled leather to the ankle support, Swoosh branding, and toebox as well as the return to a white insole for a true and through 1985 twist. But just how different is this year’s Air Jordan 1 Banned rendition when compared to 2013’s version? Today we get a side-by-side comparison courtesy of DivineKaze on Reddit and you might be surprised just how different the two pairs are.

For one, this year’s Air Jordan 1 Banned has a completely different silhouette shape.

Which version of the Jordan 1 Banned do you prefer? Check out more photos after the break and be sure to stay updated on the latest and greatest Jordan release dates right here on Sneaker News.

Renz Ofiaza, News: It?ll be interesting to see how this model does. This variation looks pretty solid already. I always wondered if the brand would explore new materials and apply it on classics just to see how it would be received. For example, the utilization of flyknit or engineered mesh as well.

The USC Football Team Gets Blessed With Free Pairs Of The Air Jordan 12 Gym Red

The USC Football team took on #1 ranked Alabama yesterday, and even though the end result wasn’t they had hoped for, they did have something to celebrate about before the game.

Before the team caught a flight to Texas, they were all gifted a pair of the Air Jordan 12 Gym Red/Alternate that is pretty much sold out anywhere you look right now.

After signing Michigan earlier this year, does Jordan Brand have their sights set on adding another top college program to their roster?
