While the Barons colorway debuted today, another variation of the Air Jordan 12 GS is introduced, as this particular pair is expected to make its arrival sometime later this Fall 2016.

Defined by dark purple dust gracing the outsole, inner lining and laces, the leather upper is comprised of a light blueish tone to cap off its respective colorway. This palette also suggests that it might be inspired by the Charlotte Hornets. Further detailed with metallic silver upper eyelets and matching pull tabs, the retail price is listed at $140.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for an official release date.

I’ll always be a fan of this model, no matter the colorway. I like this two-tone makeup and it’s a solid option for the ladies/young ones.

The Air Jordan 31 Rio (Green Abyss) has finally arrived at retailers, as it pays homage to the host nation of the 2016 Summer Olympics — Brazil.

Treated in the country’s signature colors, ghost green and green abyss covers the flyweave and synthetic leather upper, while it’s juxtaposed against a clean white midsole unit and icy translucent outsole. Finishing touches include an enlarged Jumpman branding on the heel, alongside more branding on the tongue and bottom.

Priced at $185, you can buy a pair at select Nike and Jordan Brand stockists nationwide now.

I?m not really against the shoe?s design. I?m a fan of the simple makeup but the large Jumpman bothers me a bit. This is a nice commemorative colorway though for the host country though.

By this time next week, the general public will finally be able to get their hands on the Air Jordan 5 Olympic. The White and Gold Jordan 5 has definitely garnered more and more attention the closer we get to the release date. With the release date right around the corner, Nike has just dropped the shoe’s official images.

Celebrating the 2016 Summer Olympics, the Air Jordan 5 Olympic comes constructed out of a premium White leather accented by the Black hits in places such as the midsole, lining and branding. Giving the shoe some really nice pop is the Metallic Gold noted on the tongue and shark teeth on the midsole. A set of White laces and a translucent outsole round out the main features of the shoe. Releasin August 20th and priced at $190, be sure to visit our Air Jordan 5 Olympic (Gold Medal) hub page for the shoe’s latest images and info.

Initially I did not want the shoe, but the more I look at it, the more I’m on the fence about it. It’s a bold looking shoe. The Gold tongue is everything!

The Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred dropping next month is without a doubt one of the most anticipated releases of all 2016. What other shoe could possibly top this upcoming release? How about a Air Jordan 1 High OG Royal release?! If the latest rumors prove to be true, 2017 could bring us the return of the Air Jordan 1 High OG Royal! How dope could that be?!

The last time the Royal 1s were released was back in 2013. Equipped with OG branding and all, the Royal 1s have got to be one of the most hyped colorways ever released on the Jordan 1s. Coming in a classic Black and Royal Blue color scheme, this remastered version will also come with Nike branding on the tongue, a premium leather construction all while sitting on top of a White midsole and Royal outsole. As of right now, all we know is that the shoe is rumored to release next year, no exact release date yet, but stay tuned as more info begins to surface.

I could see these releasing next year. Most of the OG Jordan 1s have been dropping ever since Jordan Brand began their remastering initiative, so why not bring back the Royals? It only makes sense.

How many of you still have a clean pair of the Air Jordan 4 Pure Money? Being that the shoe dropped 10 years ago and basically comes in an all-White colorway, there’s a good chance that your pair is looking pretty yellow and/or beat. Have no fear though because according to DJ Folk, Jordan Brand is rumored to be bringing back the Air Jordan 4 Pure Money sometime next year!

The Jordan 4 Pure Money comes in an all-White leather upper. The White also extends to the netting, branding, lining, sole unit and laces. The only part of the shoe providing any form of contrast are the shiny metal accents seen on the eyelets and the Jumpman on the heel. If the rumors end up being accurate, is this a must-cop Jordan Brand release for 2017?

Author’s Take

Can’t believe it’s been 10 years since this colorway of the 4 dropped. I’m pretty sure many people will be happy if these end up making a return.

We just reported that the Air Jordan 4 Pure Money could be making a return next year, but we’re also happy to announce that even more Air Jordans could also be getting the Pure Money treatment, one of those being the Air Jordan 7.

Rumored to be releasing sometime next year, we’re speculating that the Air Jordan 7 Pure Money will come with a White leather (maybe suede) upper accented by Metallic Silver hits noted on areas such as the branding and/or eyelets. An all-White Air Jordan 7? Is that something you’d be interested in seeing? If you’re looking forward to the potential release of the Air Jordan 4 Pure Money, make sure you check back as more information begins to surface.

It looks like Jordan Brand is planning on having an entire Jordan Pure Money line up. I’m definitely interested in seeing what the shoes end up looking like.

The post Could 2017 Bring An Air Jordan 7 Pure Money Release? appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

So let me get this straight. Not only is it being rumored that an Air Jordan 4 Pure Money is releasing next year, but there’s also been talks saying that an Air Jordan 7 Pure Money could also be making a debut in 2017. Now we have word that an Air Jordan 13 Pure Money could also have the potential to be releasing next year?! Damn, it looks like a whole lot of all-White Jordans could end up dropping next year.

Although no official word or images of the Jordan 13 Pure Money have been provided, we’re assuming that this pair will also come in all-White fashion accented by strategically placed Metallic Silver hits. It’s hard to talk about a shoe when you don’t know what it looks like, but just know that this all-White Air Jordan 13 could very well be releasing next year. Excited for this release? Let us know in the comments below.

I’m curious to see what the shoe looks like. It has potential, but it could also end up being just “another” Jordan Brand release.

Jordan Brand took a time machine and traveled back about 20 years to find the inspiration for this colorway of the Air Jordan 12.

Unofficially known as the Barons colorway, it is heavily believed that this Air Jordan 12 is inspired by the minor league baseball team that MJ played for in the mid 90’s. This grade school Air Jordan 12 comes equipped with a White tumbled leather upper and Wolf Grey detailing on the mudguard, outsole, and heel. Hits of Black complete the Barons theme by being placed on the upper eyelets, and the branding on the midsole, tongue, and heel.

You’ll be able to purchase a pair on August 13, 2016 for $140. Make sure you click and bookmark our Air Jordan 12 GS Barons launch page for the latest images, release information and important updates.

Decent colorway of the Air Jordan 12 but there?s nothing about it that makes me feel like I need it. I?ll pass on these.

Earlier this year, Jordan Brand celebrated the career of Kobe Bryant with an amazing collection of Air Jordans made just for The Black Mamba. Well, most of them were made just for the Black Mamba. A pair of Jordans, the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 8 to be more specific, that Kobe actually wore during the 2002-03 NBA season during his sneaker free agency got a slightly wider release. And by slightly wider release, we mean that the two-pack made their way to a very exclusive club of celebrities and friends of the program complete with special packaging.

With a box set that looks like it was made for a retail release at some point, we have yet to hear word if sneakerheads will ever get a chance to cop the white, purple and Laker gold Jordans. Such a unique place in Jordan Brand and Kobe’s history will forever be desired by the community, but will the trigger ever be pulled for what will surely be an instant sell out no matter how much or little they make? Time will tell and hopefully this video will remind Nike of what the people want.

For more information on this hopeful release, stay tuned to our Air Jordan Kobe Pack launch page for all latest news, images, videos and more.

The closer I take a look at both pairs the more I like the white one better than the black. I still wouldn’t buy a pair for $150 though.

This looks more like a Nike Dunk than an Air Jordan 1. I’ll pass on these and just wait for the Bred 1s instead.

After finding out earlier this year that Jordan Brand created the Air Jordan Kobe Pack that featured the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 8 in Lakers colorways, we were all excited hoping that maybe we would be able to get our hands on a pair. But as more and more time passes it’s starting to feel like they were only given out to friends and family of the brand.

Sneaker customizer Jack The Ripper decided to take matters into his own hands and created an extremely luxurious version of the Air Jordan 3 Kobe PE. This custom Air Jordan 3 that we see above features a matte white python upper with genuine elephant placed on the toecap and heel. A gold lamb liner and additional gold accents on the tongue branding provide a pop while hits of purple complete the Lakers theme. Additional details include purple suede insoles which have “1996-2016″ printed in gold to commemorate the Black Mamba’s amazing 20 year career in the NBA, and Nike Air heel tabs provided by @beat2heatrestorations. This Air Jordan 3 Kobe PE custom will be releasing in October via Jack The Ripper’s web store.

What are your thoughts? Are you feeling this custom Air Jordan 3 covered in python or do you prefer the original?

Wow! These are so nice that I don’t think that I would even wear them. I would just put them up on display in my room. Great custom by Jack The Ripper!

Jordan Brand continues its expansion into casual wear with two brand new styles of the Air Jordan 1 slated to release this Saturday, August 13th. The Jordan 1 Deconstructed aims at taking the simple design of Michael Jordan’s first signature silhouette and revamping it to near Chuck Taylor-like proportions. Not only are the numerous leather panels ditched, but an AJKO-like aesthetic graces the one-piece canvas upper while stitching makes up the Swoosh branding and pays homage to the original contours. Both a black and off-white Sail colorway are available for $123 USD.

The Air Jordan 1 High Ultra takes a different route, adding a high-top inner sock liner for a lockdown fit to add a touch of futurism to the classic 1985 icon. Not only does the upper ditch the traditional leather for a ventilated mesh, but new rope laces match the overhauled look. A simple White/Metallic Gold Coin and Black/Ghost Green will be available for $150 USD. Which pair do you prefer? Be sure to check out more detailed photos after the break and know that shops like Packer Shoes will be stocking each colorway this Saturday.

I never really liked the silhouette much before, but, I think it?s growing on me since I?ve also grown older, haha. This colorway is appealing and classic. It should get the attention it deserves.
