Jordan Brand Brings Back Another Space Jam Classic With The Air Jordan 9 OG


Jordan Brand is prepping for a full on Space Jam overhaul in the coming weeks, but don’t forget about this weekend’s release of the Jordan 9 OG. The classic White/Black Chicago inspired colorway will be available at retailers this Saturday, December 3rd for $190 USD and features a remastered upper with an unparalleled attention to detail when compared to past retros.

Michael Jordan didn’t get a chance to wear the Air Jordan 9 until his days with the Wizards when he started breaking out the Cool Grey colorway on the regular, but he did feature this exact pair prominently in Space Jam when Bugs and Daffy had to go retrieve the pair from Mike’s study so that he could train for his big game against the Monstars. Will you pick up a pair of the Jordan 9 OG this weekend?

Find your pair via Nike.com and on eBay.

You Wont Miss The Patent Leather With The Air Jordan 11 Heiress


Sure, the Space Jam 11s are the most captivating Jumpman release of the Holiday 2016 season, but there’s another Air Jordan 11 colorway that has people talking, and it’s not an OG, but an entirely new creation. We’re talking about the upcoming grade school exclusive Air Jordan 11 “Heiress”, of course, with its premium Red Velvet mudguard, no trace of patent leather whatsoever, and an updated Jumpman pendant as serving as the branding in a premium dose of Metallic Gold.

The Air Jordan 11 Heiress showcases Jordan Brand’s updated attention to detail for their ever-growing women’s line, with a lifestyle takedown of one of the most popular Air Jordan signatures of all-time. While the pair ditches the traditional Cordura mesh fabric on the upper and that dress shoe-inspired patent leather, we hardly doubt anyone will mind given the premium aesthetic championed throughout. The Air Jordan 11 Heiress will be available on December 17th for a premium price of $220 USD in a girl’s size run only.

Be sure to check out more official Nike images after the break and grab your pair (if you can fit into a size 9.5 given the nature of this girl’s exclusive release) via select shops and on Nike.com.

Following its True Blue release, the classic Air Jordan 3 will be offered in another premium iteration as part of JB?s standout Holiday 2016 lineup.

With this iteration evoking lifestyle flair and functionality, the sneaker is defined by a cohesive textile fiber construction that provides more warmth during the colder months.

Release Reminder: Air Jordan 9 Space Jam

Air Jordan 9 2 Air Jordan 9 Air Jordan 9 1

With this rendition of the Air Jordan 9 introduced in 1993, the classic model will be offered once again and treated with the ?Space Jam? moniker since it was also featured in the 1996 cult classic film to commemorate its 20th anniversary.

Previous retro releases occurred in 2002 and 2010, while this 2016 edition will essentially stay true to the OG vibe. Timeless shades of black and white graces its leather upper, and upon closer inspection, the mudguard, heel and collar section bears a slight glimmer effect for subtle flair. Additionally, vibrant hits of red adorn the tongue branding, Jumpman logo across the heel and more branding on the rear to perfectly complement its respective theme.

Priced at $190, you can purchase a pair at select JB and Nike retailers starting tomorrow, Saturday, December 3.

Priced at $220, you can purchase this standout pair at select Nike and JB stockists starting December 17 for $220.

Jordan Brand is aiming to cap off its women’s exclusive line in a high point for 2016, as this Air Jordan 6 GS dubbed “Purple Dynasty,” will close out the month of December.

Treated in a tonal finish, the defining dark purplish hue essentially covers the sneaker’s nubuck composition, midsole unit, tongue, laces, inner lining and heel tab. A crisp white outsole solidifies its overall construction, as well as topping off its simplistic two-tone color scheme.

Retailing for $140, this pair is suggested to make its debut at select JB and Nike stockists starting Friday, December 30th.


Author’s Take

I really like the colorway and the sneaker looks great in a monochromatic finish. This should be an easy option for the ladies.

To many people’s surprise, the Air Jordan 3 True Blue that released last week on Black Friday is still sitting on shelves (and online) in practically a full size run. Shocker right?

SoleFlys Air Jordan 16 Could Come With Michael Jordans Autograph

SoleFly’s close collaborative relationship with Jordan Brand has given us a number of instant classics that have all been rather limited. Earlier this year we saw them bring out an all-teal Air Jordan XX3 inspired by the Florida Marlins, but this weekend the Miami boutique has something special planned in honor of the international art extravaganza known as Art Basel: the Solefly Jordan 16 out in incredibly limited quantities on December 3rd for $275 USD.

We got an exclusive look at the upcoming release as a premium all-white construction is meant to pay homage to the theme of blank canvases. The Air Jordan 16 retro comes with its own touches of South Beach flare with subdued accents of Miami Vice-like teal and pink arriving on the shroud and outsole. The SoleFly Air Jordan 16 will even feature a special surprise: select pairs will be autographed by Michael Jordan himself for those that are waiting in line this coming Saturday!

Check out our full unboxing video below and stay tuned for more of the latest Jordan Release Dates right here on Sneaker News.

The Air Jordan 15 Obsidian Is Releasing In 2017

Jordan Brand continues to dig deeper into the archives for their upcoming 2017 release slate, as the Air Jordan 15 Obsidian will return this coming Spring season.

The Air Jordan 15 was perhaps one of the strangest post-retirement silhouettes thanks to the design cues throughout. The Jordan 15’s main inspiration was NASA’s X-15 aircraft for space exploration, but the silhouette also had a major controversy when many attributed the design of the sneaker to high-fashion brand Prada. The model championed a quick-lace system with Kevlar mesh creating the woven lifestyle aesthetic throughout. A comfortable Zoom Air system added just the right amount of cushioning. There’s no word yet on how much the pair will cost, but we’ll also see the original Black/Red Air Jordan 15 return in January.

You can expect this Air Jordan 15 retro to arrive come Spring of 2017, but be sure to head over to our Jordan Release Dates page for an updated look at all of the coming Jumpman attractions throughout the Holiday 2016 season.

Michael B. Jordans Response To The HyperAdapt: Oh S&%t!

Nike is making noise this Holiday 2016 by releasing their first-ever self-lacing sneaker in limited numbers with the introduction of the Nike HyperAdapt 1.0. A lucky select few have already gotten their hands on a pair, from basketball star Kyrie Irving to the movie star Michael B. Jordan, and they all share a similar response – a mixture of disbelief and youthful surprise. Nike is making a once fictitious technology real, afterall.

Jordan’s relationship with the Jumpman and Nike can be seen all throughout the latest Rocky spin-off Creed in which he’s decked out in Swoosh and Jordan Brand apparel throughout the movie, so that might explain his hookup for an early look at the Nike HyperAdapt 1.0. MBJ even got to try on the friends and family version, or as he likes to call them ‘the crispy all-white joints’.

Check out Michael B. Jordan’s exclusive look at the futuristic release below and view our own video where we take the Nike HyperAdapt 1.0 for a test run here.

Are you ready for the return of the Space Jam 11? Jordan Brand is pulling out all the stops in honor of Space Jam‘s 20th-anniversary celebration, and their latest endeavor pairs Blake Griffin and Jimmy Butler in an original video that could be considered Space Jam 2.

Of course, they made a pitstop at Footlocker to pick up their latest Air Jordan 11 Space Jam and Air Jordan 31 Space Jam gear, all of which are being heavily featured throughout the Jumpman catalog this Holiday 2016 season.
