Author’s Take

Like I shared before, it?ll be interesting to see how this model does. This variation looks really solid. 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.

I know we have a lot of sneakerheads out there, but how many of you are considered box heads? You know, the type of people who care as much for the box/packaging as they do for the shoe. If you’re one of those people, here is your first look at the box/packaging of the Air Jordan 31.

Courtesy of @J23app, we now have our first images of the packaging. What you see above is box that closely resembles the look style of the Air Jordan 1 box. Not only does it also come in a Black and Red motif, but the Nike branding is placed on the shoe, except this time around it’s found on the inside of the box. XXXI branding is spotted on the side and top of the box. The lid comes in Black, while the base of the box is done in Red with hits of Black that give the shoe somewhat of a gradient motif. Are you a fan of the box? You’ll be able to get the box and the shoes that comes with it on September 3rd.

If you were in Las Vegas these last couple of days, you had the opportunity of picking up the Air Jordan 31 Olympic. The Air Jordan 31 Experience event that was being held at the Brooklyn Bowl gave people in attendance the chance on scooping up the Olympic colorway of Michael Jordan’s 31st signature shoe. Rocking an Olympic theme of White, Red and Blue, this sneaker joins the many other Nike/Jordan brand models that utilize the patriotic motif. The pair you see above is actually for sale on eBay as we speak, but it’s going to cost you a pretty penny if you don’t want to wait for the upcoming wider release on August 6th. Are you a fan of this colorway? Are you a fan of the model? Let us know what are your initial thoughts in the comments below.

Author’s Take

I like the Air Jordan 31. I would not get it in this colorway, but I’m definitely going to keep a close eye on upcoming colorways. The Black and Red version is pretty clean, so I may just pick up that pair.

Our First Look At The Jordan Ultra.Fly Space Jam

While the majority of the sneaker world is patiently waiting for the Air Jordan 11 Space Jam to drop at the end of the year, Jordan Brand is throwing us a bone by releasing another model rocking the Space Jam motif. It’s not a retro, it’s actually one of their newest basketball shoes. Let’s take a look at the Jordan Ultra.Fly Space Jam.

The Jordan Ultra.Fly Space Jam comes in a Black Kurim construction combined with a Concord mesh placed on the underlay. Even more Concord is visibly noted on the Jumpman branding placed on th tognue, ankle and icy translucent sole. The tonal look is broken up by utilizing a White midsole. Thoughts on this Space Jam colorway on the Super.Fly? Expect these to drop in the near future.

 


Author’s Take

Unfortunately, I’ve yet to see the Jordan Ultra.Fly in person. The Kurim upper is trippy, but I definitely like what I see. This Spake Jam colorway is pretty clean. I may just have to try these on and see how they look on-feet.

Who Managed To Get A Pair Of The Europe Exclusive Air Jordan 2 Quai 54

Air Jordan 2 1 Air Jordan 2 2 Air Jordan 2 3 Air Jordan 2 4 Air Jordan 2 5

One of the latest Jordan retros to drop also happened to be a Europe exclusive. In other words, no retailers in the US were going to have them in stock. Although I wouldn’t say it’s impossible to be able to pick up a pair if you live in the states, you may have to put in a little extra effort and pay a little more if you wanted to own a pair of the Air Jordan 2 Quai 54.

This Air Jordan 2 Quai 54 pays homage to this year?s popular world streetball tournament. The tonal look of the nubuck and leather upper are contrasted nicely by the Metallic Gold hits placed on the Jordan/Quai 54 branding found throughout the shoe. The shoe was priced at $180 and was available at select international retailers such as Germany’s BSTN. Did you manage to pick up a pair.

Author’s Take

I’m a fan of the colorway, but I actually prefer it without the Quai 54 branding on the tongue and heel.

If you read the latest installment of Buy, Pass, Wait, you probably already knew that I’m one of the people who chose to not even try to pick up a pair of the Air Jordan 5 Metallic Silver this morning. But, what about you? Did you manage to pick up a pair of this OG version of the Jordan 5.

Priced at $220, the shoe managed to get a lot of hype due to the Nike Air branding placed on the heels and insoles. To many people, that Nike Air is definitely a game changer. I haven’t had the time to see if they sold out online, so I’ll just ask you guys, how ward was it to pick up a pair? Let us know if you struck out and were able to get a pair in the comments below.

Author’s Take

It’s a cool shoe, but it’s one that I feel like I don’t need in my collection. The Nike Air branding is not a game changer for me.
