By SoleInsider
Following its official look, more detailed images of the upcoming Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Pure Platinum are revealed, as it’s set to make its debut next week.
Defined by a weather-resistant upper in the pristine-like hue and black inner bootie construction that offers more support, the silhouette’s sleek design is further detailed with the recognizable Swooshes across its side panels and iconic wings logo on the ankle portion.

I?m not into high-cut silhouettes much, but, this offering is pretty solid. The build and inner bootie construction looks great, and the colorway is versatile overall.

Catch Olympic Fever With The Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate
By SoleInsider
The long wait for the 2016 Summer Olympics is finally over as the opening ceremony takes place today which will be followed by the first day of competition tomorrow.
To kickoff the international celebration Jordan Brand will be launching a new colorway of the Air Jordan 7. Known as the Tinker Alternate colorway, this Air Jordan 7 was originally designed by Tinker Hatfield at the same time he created the original Olympic colorway. Michael Jordan had the option to choose from the two designs and he ultimately went with the Olympic pair. The Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate uses the patriotic color scheme of white, red and blue and also ads hits of gold that provide a nice pop.
The entire family will be able to pick up their pair on August 6th for a retail price of $190 for men, $140 for GS, $80 for PS, and $60 for TD.

Add The Air Jordan 1 High Premium Essentials To Your Rotation This Weekend
By SoleInsider
The Air Jordan 1 has long-since been a staple of anyone’s footwear rotation. The iconic silhouette will go down in history as one of the pairs that birthed the modern day sneaker industry for its head turning “Banned” colorway, Michael Jordan’s on-court exploits, and the fact that it was the first in the signature Jumpman series. It’s transitioned flawlessly into the lifestyle realm as a status symbol of fashion statement. This weekend, Jordan Brand will pay homage to that lineage with the Jordan 1 Premium Essentials Pack due out Saturday, August 6th.
The Air Jordan 1 High “Premium Essentials” takes the model and gives it two simple, understated high-contrast colorways in either White/Black or Black/White. It’s hard to believe that Jordan Brand didn’t release these offerings earlier in the three-decade span of Jordan 1 dominance. Each pair will retail for $160 USD and feature classic ‘Nike Air’ branding on the tongue in red for a standout feature.
The Jordan 1 Premium Essentials is available right now on eBay.
Celebrate Team USAs Quest For Gold With The Jordan 7 Olympic Alternate
By SoleInsider
Team USA takes on China tomorrow August 6th at 6:00 PM, so what better way to celebrate than with the timely release of the Jordan 7 Olympic Alternate? This Olympic season, Jordan Brand decided to skip over the pair actually worn by Michael Jordan during the 1992 Barcelona Games for an alternate sample created by Tinker Hatfield that never released, until now.
The Air Jordan 7 “Olympic Alternate” features a Deep Royal Blue shade throughout the upper that more closely resembles this year’s Team USA Nike Basketball uniforms than any other kit that preceded it. A white tumbled leather base adds a premium Remastered feel to the offering while Metallic Gold Coin lands on the Jumpman branding throughout in honor of the team’s pursuit of gold. A unique gradient midsole adds speckling throughout in Fire Red while a bold American flag graphic features Mike’s Olympic number 9 on the heel.
Are you a fan of Saturday’s Jordan 7 Olympic Alternate? Check out more photos below and if you can’t wait until then, know that you can find your pair right now on eBay.
Those who love the Air Jordan 3 and live in cold winter climates should take note, because the ultimate winter edition of the famous silhouette is coming soon. Just like the wool-constructed Air Jordan 12, the Air Jordan 3 gets a wool makeover to battle the cold months ahead, which we get a quick preview of here today. The wooly winter Air Jordan 3 features a tonal dark grey upper with the sole in solid off-white. Is this the ultimate winter Air Jordan release, or will you just stick to boots once the snow starts falling? If you do like what you see, anticipate the Air Jordan 3 “Wool” to hit select Jordan Brand retailers on December 17th for $200.
To coincide with the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (August 5 – 21), an alternate iteration of the iconic Air Jordan 7 Olympic is scheduled to be offered.
Designed by Nike designer extraordinaire, Tinker Hatfield, this particular colorway slight differs from its predecessor. While compared to its original counterpart, hits of blue are more prominent across its underlays. Comprised of premium leather, the overall aesthetic is essentially filled with patriotic flair. Pristine white dominates the upper, as navy-colored nubuck is utilized for its underlays, in addition to more applied on the ankle portion and outsole.
To encapsulate the USA-inspired palette, vibrant pops of red adorn the midsole unit more prominently, while additional accents are applied on the heel and inner lining. Finishing touches of metallic gold are seen on the tongue label, lace tips and jumpman logo across the ankle to coordinate with its respective theme.
Latest News:
Update: (8/03) Tinker Hatfield acknowledges that this Alternate pair was 1 of 2 variations that he designed for the 1992 Summer Olympics and MJ had chosen the white-based version as his preferred pair.
Update: (8/03) PS and TD sizes will be offered as well, and retail for $80 and $60 respectively.
Update: (7/30) More official images are featured. GS sizes (3.5y ? 7y) will be offered and listed at $140.
Renz Ofiaza, News: I like the original version better. The colorway is still appealing, but I prefer the all-white upper instead. It should still get a lot of attention none the less.

Finally, a sail white rubber sole unit finishes off the simple two-tone design.

I’m all for applying new materials on classic JB silhouettes. This pair doesn’t look that bad. The colorway is versatile and it’ll be suitable for the colder weather.

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.
Following a pure platinum release, the Air Jordan 1 KO High will be offered in another colorway, this time consisting of obsidian.
Bearing almost the same material makeup as the aforementioned pair, canvas overlays and what seems to be quilted suede essentially covers its entire makeup to exude its lifestyle appeal.
