Official Images Of The Air Jordan 1 High Suede Collection Red

Also a part of the Air Jordan 1 High Suede Collection is this all-Red pair. We initially thought these suede Jordan 1s were going to be GS exclusives, but the official images show the shoe in adult sizes, so everyone who was itching to get a pair, it looks like you’ll be able to after all.

Said to release sometime this Spring season, this Air Jordan 1 High comes in a smooth all-Red suede upper accompanied by even more Red placed on the laces, branding, lining and the entire sole unit. The all-Red sneaker hype is not quite what it used to be but there’s no denying that the shoe still manages to make a loud statement. If you’re looking for a sneaker that will do all the talking for you, this is definitely a one that can do that. Will you be picking up the Red pair from the Air Jordan 1 High Suede Collection?

Official Images Of The Air Jordan 1 High Suede Collection Blue

A few days ago we shared new images with you of a brand new Air Jordan 1 High. The new look on the model had it covered in a tonal suede from top to bottom. People were diggin’ the look, the it was believed that the shoe would only be dropping in GS sizes. We can now confirm that that is not true and that Jordan Brand also plans on releasing the Air Jordan 1 High Suede Collection in adult sizes.

Above you will find official images of the Blue air from the Air Jordan 1 High Suede Collection. Just like the GS pair, this one rocks the same motif consisting of a Blue suede upper accented by the additional Blue on the laces, branding, lining and sole unit. The images above shoe the Blue pair paired up with the Red one. We only hope that the Grey pair we initially previewed will also be a part of the collection. Stay tuned as more info begins to surface.

The Red October and Blue Suede Air Jordan 1s Are Releasing In Adult Sizes, Too


Good news for those of you that wanted a pair of the coming Air Jordan 1 “Red October” but were a bit worried about the colorway being a GS exclusive: today we get an official look at more monochromatic suede renditions in adult sizes slated to arrive later this Spring 2017 season as part of the Air Jordan 1 Suede Collection.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG has been featured in plenty of original 1985 colorways lately, and with the Royal 1s slated to release April 1st and steal most of the deserved limelight, these lifestyle inspirations might go under the radar. We’re still unsure if the “Cool Grey” version will be available in adult sizes, but it seems rather likely given the appearance of these two colorways (and that might just be the best colorway in the Air Jordan 1 Suede Collection given the KAWS-esque vibe and the simple, understated tonal quality of the light grey shade). Other features include Jumpman branding on the premium togue tag instead of the OG ‘Nike Air’ branding while a matching logo is stitched onto the heel.

What do you think about the Air Jordan 1 Suede Collection featuring more vibrant standouts? Check out more detailed shots below and stay tuned for a Release Date right here on Sneaker News in the near future.

Author’s Take:

Renz Ofiaza, News: The AJ 4 is one of my top favorite silhouettes of all time. This colorway is pretty versatile, but I’m not that tempted into acquiring a pair. Maybe for a much lower price I’d consider. Nonetheless, still a solid offering.

Michigan Plays In Practice Uniforms And Jordan PEs After Plane Scare

mighigan-wolverines-plane-scare-jordan-pes

The Michigan Wolverines had a bit of a travel scare on their way to the Big Ten Conference Tournament in Washington D.C. yesterday. The team’s plane slid off of the runway causing travel complications and despite this, Big Blue didn’t want to push their game back earlier today – they were that ready to play. There was a bit of a uniform snafu though, as the Wolverines had to settle for wearing their practice jerseys against the Fighting Illini during today’s game because they couldn’t access their regular threads in the damaged aircraft. That didn’t stop the squad from lacing up their best Michigan Jordan PEs as a number of players showed off the Air Jordan 31 “Coaches vs. Cancer” PE from earlier in the season and others opted for the recently released Air Jordan 31 Low “Michigan”. But highlighting the bunch was the best look yet at the Air Jordan 13 Low Michigan. Check out some of the Wolverine’s best selections to match their practice gear and know the story should have a happy ending – they’re currently up 11 with just 5 minutes to go in the game.
