Next week we’ll be seeing the arrival of a new colorway of the Air Jordan 4 that will be releasing exclusively in grade-school sizes.

Covered in a White leather upper with Deep Royal Blue, Wolf Grey and Hyper Orange accents, this Air Jordan 4 is scheduled to drop on March 9th for $140. In addition to the White leather on the upper we see Deep Royal Blue accents on the tongue patch, waffle eyelets, midsole, heel, and the reinforcement wings by the ankle. Wolf Grey can then be seen on the toecap and inner liner while Hyper Orange adds a spark of color on the Jumpman branding on the heel and tongue.

Any women plan on scooping up a pair next week at select Jordan Brand retailers? Let us know in the comments below.

Author’s Take

In my opinion this colorway would have looked better without the Hyper Orange accents and with a bit more Wolf Grey detailing. It’s not that bad but if I wore GS sizes I wouldn’t cop.

An upcoming Air Jordan 4 Pinnacle in Black is scheduled to arrive later this year, as the model is essentially labeled as a premium iteration of the iconic silhouette.

Inheriting a tumbled leather build dipped in Black, the understated profile is complemented with tonal faux pony hair across its tongue and vamp section. The utilization of these materials essentially places an emphasis on its luxurious makeup for lifestyle flair compared to its traditional iterations.

To round out its style, the silhouette is equipped with matching quilted insoles, waxed laces and a leather Jumpman hang tag. A blacked-out box with elephant print, an extra set of laces, dust bag and a special card finishes off the offering.

Author’s Take:

Renz Ofiaza, News: I like the approach of this line in general, but I?ll have to pass on this pair. The AJ 1 iteration in Vachetta Tan was my favorite so far and while this pair seems versatile, I?m just not a fan of the hairy detailing.

One of the most expensive Air Jordan 4s ever will be hitting retailers later this month in what is expected be the first of a few different luxurious Air Jordan 4s in 2016.

This premium colorway of the Air Jordan 4 comes in a tonal black upper featuring a premium textured leather all throughout with pony hair landing on the tongue and side panels. Contrasting off-white accents then cover the outsole while a leather inner liner adds to the luxurious look.

Releasing on March 26th for a massive price of $400, do you hope to pick up a pair? Head over to our Air Jordan 4 Pinnacle Black launch page for additional images and other important updates regarding this release.

Author?s Take

I would have preferred to see some contrast on the upper instead of just all-black. While the Air Jordan 4 is probably my favorite Air Jordan silhouette of all-time, it?s hard to justify spending $400 on a pair, especially one as bland as this one.

Valentine’s Day is long and gone but Jordan Brand has no plans of cancelling the release of this Air Jordan 12 for the ladies. It’s unclear why JB decided to postpone this release until March instead of releasing them around Valentine’s Day, but what we do know is that they’re here now.

The Air Jordan 12 GS Vivid Pink will feature a White leather upper with bright Vivid Pink detailing on the outsole, side panels, inner liner, heel and on the Jumpman and “T W O 3″ branding on the tongue. Capping things off are Metallic Silver upper eyelets.

Releasing on March 5th for a retail price of $140 in grade-school sizes, will this be a cop or drop for you? Make sure to visit our Air Jordan 12 GS Dynamic Pink launch page for additional images and important updates.

Author?s Take

In my opinion I think this will be one of the most popular pink Air Jordans that will ever release. I already know lots of women that are looking forward to pick up a pair and as the release grows closer the anticipation will continue to grow.

In case you didn’t already know, the Air Jordan 17 is set to receive the retro treatment for the first time ever this year since its original release back in 2002. The first colorway that will be hitting retailers is the OG Copper colorway when it touches down at retailers on April 10th for a whopping retail price of $250.

Today we have learned that not only will OG colorways will be releasing but also brand new colorways that will be making their debut in 2016. One of those colorways will feature a Black upper with Gym Red and White detailing which is rumored to be inspired by Michael Jordan?s 30,000th point he scored as a Wizard while playing the Chicago Bulls on January 4th, 2002.

This Air Jordan 17+ Bulls is currently expected to release on May 29, 2016 for a retail price of $250. They are also expected to release with the accompanying metal briefcase and CD like the originals.

Author’s Take

A red Air Jordan 17? I’m definitely interested to see what the shoe will look like since the Air Jordan 17 is the first ever Air Jordan that I bought. That $250 price tag is ridiculous though.

It appears that the Air Jordan 3 OG 88 True Blue won’t be the only Air Jordan 3 releasing this year. There is now rumors that a new colorway of the Air Jordan 3 will also be releasing a few days after the True Blues on Cyber Monday.

This will be much like the Air Jordan 1 Cyber Monday that we saw release in 2015. There is no word on what the colorway of the shoe is yet, but all that is being reported at the moment is that it will release on Monday, November 28th. Retail price is expected to be $190 like most other retros which means we should be seeing the Jumpman and not Nike Air on the heel.

Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for developing news on this potential release.

A rumor surfaced today that there will be a “What The” colorway of the Air Jordan 1.

This mash-up version of the Air Jordan 1 will reportedly feature a “Bred” toe, “Chicago” mid and “Royal” heel putting together the three most popular colorways of the shoe all into one. There is no release information or pricing yet but once more information is available we will be sure to get that to you.

What are your thoughts on this potential What The Air Jordan 1? Is it a good idea or has the idea/colorway been overdone by Nike?

Author’s Take

I’m not really sure what to think if this is true. I’ll save my judgment until we see pictures of the real pair that will be releasing.

The Air Jordan 4 is already off to an awesome start to the new year thanks to the ‘Nike Air’ branding found on All-Star Weekend’s “White/Cement” 4s release and an “Alternate ’89” release that showed new takes on the Chicago-theme could still be found in 2016. But how will the Jumpman follow up those two releases for the kids? How about a rather Knicks-centric colorway? This White/Hyper Orange-Deep Royal Blue combination manages to captivate thanks to a familiar combination for Gotham’s main basketball club that keeps things classy with a Wolf Grey toecap for some added depth. While we’d love to see a full family size run, this grade school exclusive will hit retailers on March 9th, 2016 for $140 USD. Check out more detailed shots below and stay tuned for more Jordan release date updates right here on Sneaker News.

The Spring and Summer are when we typically see sneaker brands release their most colorful shoes that catch our attention the most. Not that colorful kicks aren’t release all year long, but things get extra flashy when the weather is hot.

Releasing this Spring as a part of the Air Jordan 10 City Pack that features four different colorways is this flashy colorway of the Air Jordan 10. Drawing inspiration from the city and specifically the flag of Chicago, this Air Jordan 10 features White leather throughout the majority of the upper with University Blue and Bright Crimson detailing on the tongue, laces, eyestay, ankle, outsole, the Jumpman branding on the heel and the “CHI” writing by the ankle. Capping things off is a Black inner liner.

Look for this Chicago-inspired colorway of the Air Jordan 10 to release on May 14th for $190. Also make sure you head over to our Air Jordan 10 Chicago Flag launch page for the latest images and information regarding this release.

Author?s Take

The only reason I would pick up this pair of 10s is if I were from the city of Chicago or lived there because the inspiration/theme looks to be on point. But since I don?t these are a pass for me.

“It’s all in the imagination” are the final lines of that classic Air Jordan 2 commercial featuring the beautiful rock-a-bye-baby dunk that MJ made famous. Imagination is also used in the “Wing It” poster that would serve as the inspiration for the eponymous new Air Jordan 2 colorway that is dropping this weekend. The greatness of Michael Jordan and the Air Jordan line is that we rarely have to imagine for too long because either MJ pulled off whatever crazy move we were thinking of in our minds or Jordan Brand is already in the lab thinking of different ways to breathe new life into these iconic silhouettes. This year has already seen the release of different “packed” takes on retros like the Alternate and the Dunk From Above collections, and the Air Jordan 2 Wing It is the second half of the Poster collection, alongside the Air Jordan 12 The Master.

As it turns out, there is a common thread between the two posters, and in turn, the two sneakers, and that they both revel in what is possible. You know, imagination. The Wing It poster actually a leaves lot to the imagination because all you see are the shoes. Who knows what amazing contortion of his body MJ put himself through to make that pose with the sneakers happen? Meanwhile, the Air Jordan 12 The Master is an older, wiser take on His Airness but the implication is still the same: he might not have the same athleticism in 1997 like he did in 1987 but you can still imagine him doing just about anything to blow by his opponent in that position.

Enjoy this quick look at the Air Jordan Poster Collection, featuring both the Air Jordan 2 Wing It dropping this weekend (so follow our launch page for all the news) and the Air Jordan 12 The Master.

This upcoming weekend we’ll be seeing the release of the 2nd Air Jordan XXX colorway with the University Blue version that pays homage to Michael Jordan’s college days.

But before we get ahead of ourselves today we get another look at the Cosmos colorway that was first seen during the official unveiling of the Air Jordan XXX in Chicago. It turns out that Tinker Hatfield and Mark Smith designed this colorway of the Air Jordan XXX specifically for the event and did so without the knowledge of Jordan Brand. There is no expected release date for the shoe but today we get a new look at the intergalactic colorway courtesy of @ernny_the_man.

Interesting colorway of the Air Jordan XXX. But would I actually buy a pair? Probably not.

Many NFL players have worn PE Air Jordan 7 cleats in the past but today we get one of the best looks ever at two pairs that were made exclusively for Alshon Jeffery of the Chicago Bears.

Both pairs come in a combination of white, blue and orange (Chicago Bears team colors) in what are presumably the home and road colorways. Jordan Brand created player exclusive Air Jordan 7 cleats for a handful of JB athletes but these two colorways that you see above are two rare alternate versions that not many people have seen before.

Which pair do you like better from the two? Let us know your pick down in the comments below.

It’s cool to see PE Air Jordan 7 Cleats but I’m not a of cleats or the Chicago Bears (Go Vikings!). I’m sure fans of the team and silhouette would love to own these though.
