Aside from the limited edition Air Jordan Kobe Pack that debuted earlier this year, MJ continues to celebrate Kobe Bryant’s illustrious 20-year career in the NBA with this special take on the classic Air Jordan 9.

Dressed in the Los Angeles Lakers’ signature colors, its white leather upper is pronounced with bold purple adorning the patent leather overlay encompassing its midsole unit and spans throughout the rear and along its collar section. Capping of the respective theme consists of bright yellow accents implemented on the branding across its tongue tab, miniature Jumpman logos prominently located across its heels and outsole, in addition to more respective branding on the rear with the number “23” and circular globe badge.

Finished off with matching white laces with metallic silver eye stays, you can expect to find this standout pair at select Nike and JB accounts on November 2016 for a price tag of $190.

Stay tuned for more updates.

I really like this silhouette in olive/black, but this colorway is pretty solid too. It?s a nice gesture and solid tribute. I?m sure a lot of fans will be pleased.

This weekend we won’t be seeing Jordan Brand release a retro that we’ve known about for months or even weeks. Instead they have decided to give us two tonal colorways of the Air Jordan 1.

First seen last week in White and Black, this new Air Jordan 1 High features leather uppers with engineered perforation detailing on the side panels and toe box. Both colorways are then highlighted by the Vachetta Tan leather that lands on the inner liner. Both pairs also come with tonal Swooshes, Jumpman logos on the tongue, outsoles, and White midsoles.

Releasing on July 9th for $160 each, do you plan on picking up either of these Air Jordan 1 Highs?

The perforation detailing and the Vachetta Tan hits are a nice touch, but I don’t see anything special that would make me want to buy a pair.

Fat Joe is no stranger to having some exclusive and rare sneakers. He even took to the gram a couple of weeks ago to show off some exclusive Air Jordan 8s that resembled the new Championship Pack.

This week Joe was cleaning his “dungeon” when he came across this unique pair of Air Jordan 4s. According to him this is a Derek Anderson PE from back in the day when he used to play for the Miami Heat. The shoe features a black suede upper with red accents and Anderson’s “Loyal 1″ branding on the ankles.

Even though this will probably never hit retailers, would you cop if they ever did? Let us know in the comments below.

Last year we saw Jordan Brand release a new lifestyle/casual runner with the Jordan Eclipse. Immediately drawing comparisons to the Roshe Run, it seems that people have been on the fence on whether or not to embrace the silhouette.

For those of you that are fans of the sneaker there’s a new colorway right now that’s up for grabs. This Jordan Eclipse features a pristine all-white mesh upper with subtle hits of Metallic Silver and Pure Platinum landing on various parts of the sneaker including the branding on the tongue and heel, as well as the pull tabs.

Fans of the Jordan Eclipse can pick up this colorway now at select JB retailers for $110.

There has been a couple of colorways of the Jordan Eclipse that have caught my eye but this all-white pair isn’t one of them. I just can’t do white mesh.

The Air Jordan 12 Gym Red released not to long ago. Now Jordan Brand is getting ready to use a very similar color scheme on the classic Air Jordan 1 High. Set to drop early next month, let’s get a close at the latest images of the Air Jordan 1 High Gym Red.

Dressed in an all leather upper, the shoe comes in a White and Gym Red color scheme. Giving the shoe some nice pop is the Pure Platinum utilized on the Nike Swoosh and Wings branding on the collar. A couple of Jumpman hits can be seen on the heel and tongue. Finally, Gym Red laces and an all-White sole unit round out the aesthetics of the shoe. Dropping on August 1st, is this a pair of Jordan 1s you’re looking to pick up?

Author’s Take

It kind of has a retro feel to them. They’re dope. Since it doesn’t have a Nike tongue tag, you should have no problem picking up a pair.

Not too nice, not too bad. Just alright. I actually think it would look better without the Pure Platinum. To each their own.

Reflective silver with black and neon red accents and speckles? If the color scheme for this new ASICS GEL-Lyte III sounds familiar, that’s because it’s almost exactly the same as the recent Air Jordan 5 Low by soccer star Neymar. The coincidental colorway for this latest GEL-Lyte III may be eerily similar to Neymar’s Air Jordan 5’s, but they do come with their own distinct feature: star perforations across the premium black leather base. Get a good look at the Neymar-esque GEL-Lyte III’s here, and expect them at select ASICS Tiger retailers soon.

I?m not that big fan of the higher placement of the patent leather overlay, but this one of my favorite sneakers ever. I?m just glad it?s being released again and hopefully in lots of quantities.

Jordan Brand continues to push their off-the-court styles this summer, with the iconic Air Jordan 1 model ditching the patented Swoosh side panel branding to transform into unrecognizable territory. Mike’s first model has seen a number of revamps over the past year and a half whether it be the Pinnacle series or this weekend’s Air Jordan 1 Retro High EP featuring added perforations. After a trio of monochromatic offerings a few months back, the Air Jordan 1 Low Swooshless is now available in a clean all white colorway. The tumbled leather construction is complimented by a leather ‘Nike Air’ branded tongue tag and classic ‘Wings’ branding on the heel, each camouflaged by a matching shade of white. Available today for $150 USD via Rock City Kicks.

I like both colorways but I?ll side with this more since it?s more versatile and less maintenance on cleaning. I like the overall build.

You can?t go wrong with the classic silhouette. This revamped take is a clean offering and I like the colorway. The only downside is keeping it clean.

Back in May we saw Jordan Brand release three tonal colorways of the Air Jordan 1 Low that were distinguished by the absence of the worldly renown Swoosh logo on the side panels. All three colorways were greeted with open arms as the shoes featured premium tumbled leather uppers that left everyone wanting more.

Now we’ll see a new colorway releasing for the Summer of 2016 with this all-white option that you see above. Today we get our first look at the latest Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh that takes on the same tonal upper with a premium leather upper but this time in white, the ideal colorway of the Summer. The shoe is finished off with Nike Air branding on the tongue and the Wings logo on the heel.

At the moment this white Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh is expected to release on July 16, 2016 for $150. Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

I like any of the other three colorways that already released better than this one. Materials are dope again but these are a pass for me.

How may of you got a pair of the Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh that dropped a while back? While we wait for more colorways to drop, today we take a look at the PSNY x Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh, which is said to be a Friends & Family only release.

The PSNY x Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh comes dressed in a Black tumbled leather upper offset by the Gold/Yellow hits placed on the sole unit and tongue branding. Additional details include the Gold lace tips on the Black laces. So who owns this pair? Jordan brand employee @FrankCooker posted this image on his IG, so there’s a good chance that this is going to be a Friends & Family exclusive colorway. Hot or not? Let us know in the comment below.

Author’s Take

The Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh was created to be a lifestlye sneaker. In my opinion, subtle colorways look best on the shoe. If these were to drop, I’d still choose one of the inaugural colorways before this pair.
