LOTS of sneakers released in this first Saturday of December, but the biggest was probably the Air Jordan 9 Space Jam.

Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 1 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 2 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 3 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 4 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 5 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 6 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 7 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 8 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 9 Air Jordan 1 Ultra High Space Jam 10

As you probably already know by now, Jordan Brand began releasing their Space Jam Collection this week with the arrival of the OG White/Black Air Jordan 9 as well as the all-new Air Jordan 31.

But one silhouette that is being overlooked is the Air Jordan 1 Ultra High that is also part of the collection. This Air Jordan 1  features textile and patent leather upper done in Black with Concord accents landing on the Jumpman logo on the tongue and insoles, the Wings branding on the ankle, and the Swoosh on the side panels. A White midsole and icy blue translucent outsole finish off the look.

Check out the detailed images above and pick up your pair at select Jordan Brand retailers now for $150.

Author?s Take

If this were a regular Air Jordan 1 and not the Ultra version with the new ankle/collar, I?m pretty sure I would have liked it better. I?m not a fan of the new look.

The Air Jordan 15 will be returning next year not only in the OG Stealth colorway, but also in the OG Obsidian colorway.

After finding out the news earlier this week, we now have new images to show you of what’s believed to be the 2017 version of the Obsidian 15s. The shoe features a blue leather and woven upper with white accents on the inner lining, tongue, laces, heel, and outsole. The shoe is then finished off with metallic silver lace tips for that premium look.

There is no confirmed release date for the remastered Air Jordan 15 Obsidian yet, though it is expected to release some time during the Spring of 2017. Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for more details.

Author’s Take

I like this pair much better than the Stealth colorway, but I just don’t really like the 15 silhouette overall. I don’t see myself picking up a pair.

More Wingless Air Jordan 1s Are Headed To Retailers

When the sneakers were still in development before their original release in 1984, the Air Jordan 1 went through a few different tweaks and sample stages before becoming the icon it is today. One of the more famous prototype designs featured a wingless “Air Jordan” logo on the ankle. After over 30 years in the dark, the wingless Air Jordan 1 made its first retail debut last year, and now three new colorways of the wingless design are set to release, including one quite similar to the OG “Chicago” colorway, as well as a fragment-like royal blue rendition. In addition to the unique logo at the ankle, the sneakers also include a “Nike Air” logo on the heel, which as far as we know, was never featured on an early sample of the shoe but makes for an interesting addition now.

Expect the new round of Air Jordan 1 “Wingless” colorways to arrive in early 2017.

As some of you may know, the Air Jordan 6 Chameleon is currently scheduled to release during NBA All-Star Weekend next year (2/17/17). Now we just came across a rumor stating that another Jordan retro with a Chameleon theme could also be releasing that very same weekend. That shoe happens to be the Air Jordan 1 Retro High Chameleon.

According to 2muchsol3, the Jordan 1 Chameleon you see above comes in a Black Toe color blocking pattern utilizing Green, White and Black. The Green parts of the shoe are said to come in 3M fashion to fit the Chameleon theme of the shoe. No other pictures, price info or solid release dates have been provided, but keep it locked as we’ll hook you up with that and more as soon as it becomes available.

I like it. Very nice color scheme and the Chameleon theme looks clean. It they’re limited, I’m sure they’ll fly off the shelves.

Detailed Unboxing Of The Air Jordan 3 Wool

The Air Jordan 3 will be offered in a premium iteration as well to follow up on the recent True Blue release.

With this iteration evoking more lifestyle appeal and functionality for the colder season, the sneaker strays from its traditional leather build and instead, features a cohesive textile fiber construction that enables more thermal insulation. The distinctive woolen component essentially covers its upper, which is nicely complemented by a sail white rubber sole unit to cap off the classic, yet simple two-tone design.

Priced at $200, the sneaker will be packaged in a classic black/red Jordan Brand box with the signature cement detailing throughout.

Find this pair at select JB and Nike stockists starting Saturday, December 17th.

Author’s Take

I?m all for applying new materials on classic JB silhouettes. This pair doesn?t look that bad. Maybe I?m just biased but, the colorway is versatile and it?ll be suitable for the colder weather.

A Closer Look At The Air Jordan 1 Ultra High BRED

Aside from the Space Jam iteration, the Air Jordan 1 Ultra High is also treated in a favorable finish of black/red for its latest take this season.

Sporting a durable textile construction that also features an extended bootie and pull-tab system, the stealthy hue is simply prominent across the majority of its upper, while vibrant red is focalized on the toe box, heel, outlining of the Swooshes, ankle section and outsole.

All sandwiched in between a crisp white midsole unit, select Nike and JB retailers nationwide have the pair available now for $150.

Stay tuned for a wider release in the near future.

Author’s Take

I?m not into high-cut silhouettes much, but, this new build and inner bootie construction looks great. The colorway is a classic as well and you can?t go wrong with it.

More detailed images of this Air Jordan 3 GS is featured, as it’ll cap off Jordan Brand’s kids-exclusive offerings for 2016.

Flaunting a tonal black leather base, the defining element consists of rio teal accents gracing the inner lining, midsole and signature elephant print detailing prominent on the heel and toe cap.

Additionally, gold accents adorning the Jumpman logos across its tongue and heel, as well as the lower eyelets provide additional vibrance, as well as complementing its overall color scheme. Finally, a clean white midsole and black rubber outsole caps off the profile.

Retailing for $140, this pair is set to debut at select Nike and Jordan Brand retailers nationwide starting December 10th, while more retailers will stock the model by Christmas Eve, December 24th.

Author’s Take

I don?t think the colorway is that bad, but, I?m not too keen on this variation of the silhouette. It?s a cool option for the kids though.

The Air Jordan 11 Low Barons Debuts Next Year

Air Jordan 11 Low 1 Air Jordan 11 Low Air Jordan 11 Low 2 Air Jordan 11 Low 3 Air Jordan 11 Low 4 Air Jordan 11 Low 5 Air Jordan 11 Low 6

The Air Jordan 11 Low Barons is showcased in another detailed gallery, which is defined by an understated color scheme that is reminiscent of MJ?s days with the Birmingham Barons in 1994 ? essentially a minor league baseball team and Double-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox major-league club.

Covered in a mixture of black, metallic silver and white — the sneaker?s defining element is focalized on its patent leather overlays in ash grey, while tonal black nubuck comprises the remainder of its upper. Notable ?23? and Jumpman logos are embroidered on the heel tab, as it’s all adhered atop a crisp white sole unit to round out its composition.

Retailing for $175, this pair is suggested to make its official debut at select JB and Nike retailers sometime during April 2017.

h/t: SBD


Author’s Take

It does somewhat evoke the 72-10s a bit. I?m generally not a fan of the sneaker in low-cut I?m not really a fan of the silhouette in low-top form, but, it?s always an appealing profile.

KoF Live: Jordan Brand Brings Space Jam To Life Inside Warner Bros. Studios (Video)

Stepping inside a Hollywood studio never gets old. Sure, it’s a familiar sight for those of us who live in the Los Angeles area, but there’s still a magic to it that’s hard to convey unless you’re walking from one studio to the next. If you grew up watching movies like Batman or Ghostbusters or watched TV shows like Friends (heads up, I found Central Perk and may or may not have taken a gratuitous selfie there), know that this is where that work happened. And if you grew up a big Space Jam or Michael Jordan fan, know that this is where MJ really got his groove back during his first return to the NBA, playing pickup games between takes with fellow castmates and players.

This week, Jordan Brand and Warner Bros. began what we like to affectionately call Space Jam Season. The film is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year and to coincide with that, we are getting a retro release of the Air Jordan 11, a rebranding of the Air Jordan 9 that MJ wore in the movie and a brand new Air Jordan XXX1 that borrows quite liberally from the 11. But more than that, the movie is getting a renewed lease on life with a 20th anniversary Blu-Ray release, constant talk about a sequel which may or may not star LeBron James, and a brand new #MonstarsBack campaign featuring Blake Griffin and Jimmy Butler. Oh, and there’s the amazing Space Jam-themed court inside Warner Bros. Studios that’s being hosted by Jordan Brand. That’s kind of a big deal, right?

Last night, we got to check out the space that features all sorts of Space Jam memorabilia, a working OG Playstation with the eponymous game running, the shoes dropping over the next few weeks and a high school basketball game featuring the city’s top teams. We also got some time to check out the Air Jordan XXX1 Space Jam that’s dropping tomorrow, which you can watch up top via our Facebook Live replay.
