Both pairs are cool. I’m not crazy about the confetti print, but the Champagne pair is nice throughout. Price is a bit high, but it is what it is.

A Premium Version Of The Air Jordan 5 Is In The Works

According to iamchickenwop, Jordan Brand appears to currently be working on a special premium version of the Air Jordan 5. He recently shared a “first look” of the shoe, and as you can see, it’s definitely in its early stages of design.

All the images shoes is a White base paired up with a Black midsole and translucent outsole. While it’s still hard to tell what kind of material will be used on the top, I would not be surprised if they cover the shoe in similar materials that we’ve seen on the premium versions of the Air Jordan 4. The Jumpman branding on the tongue also appears to come in embossed fashion. Thoughts on this new version of the Air Jordan 5? Let us know what you think in the comments below.

Renz Ofiaza, News: The color combo is essentially a classic, but I’m not really fond of this model. Although it hasn’t been seen since ’99, I’m sure fans of the silhouette are elated for the revival.

It?s a cool colorway on the 10. I agree, this is definitely one of the better options from the City Pack. Would I cop? No. But that?s only because I don?t get down with the 10s like that.

With all of the dope 12s that dropped this year, this is a colorway that doesn’t really garner my attention. It’s just too plain in my opinion.
