After a two year hiatus from production, the iconic Air Jordan 3 is returning in an all-new colorway this Fall 2016.

As the moniker suggests, the theme coincides with the Monday after the Thanksgiving holiday, which was first evident on the AJ 1 from 2015. Although, this pair is expected to make its debut in the coming weeks ahead instead. Flaunting a simple two-tone finish, the sneaker?s smooth and textured leather is rendered in black, while it?s juxtaposed atop a clean white rubber sole unit.

Classic Jumpman embroidery adorning the tongue and insoles, in addition to a Jumpman branded patch treated in a matte finish rounds out its notable details.

Priced at $190, you can purchase this pair at select JB and Nike retailers on October 15th.

Author’s Take

I?m biased towards the silhouette and even though it looks somewhat boring, the colorway is a classic. I?m not really into it that much yet, but, I?ll still probably purchase since it?s a simple and clean offering.

Wool uppers are coming to Air Jordan Retros starting this weekend as the Air Jordan 12 is first up to get the “sweater weather” look. Later this year, the Air Jordan 3 Retro follow as will the Air Jordan 11. However, today we get a look at the Air Jordan 11 “Suede” features a full grey suede upper while ditching translucent soles for a solid white. The source that posted the image states that these are wool, and an Air Jordan 11 “Wool” is indeed releasing, but these are indeed a suede version. These are expected to release later this year. What are your thoughts? Get a first look here and stay tuned for updates.

Following a teaser video of another Solefly and Jordan Brand collaboration, the first images of the purported design is unveiled with this SoleFly x Air Jordan 23.

As previously reported, the basketball silhouette has been inspired by the MLB’s Florida Marlins and their first World Series victory in 1997 against the Cleveland Indians. The sneaker is treated in the Marlins’ signature colorway with teal, while notable details such as the number ?23? are on the right tongue and ?SF? for SoleFly on the left tongue. In addition, the model is limited to 1,500 pairs only.

You can expect this standout pair to make its debut on October 22nd.

Stay tuned for more updates.

I’m not that inclined on this silhouette, but, I do like the colorway so far. This should garner a lot of attention nonetheless.

Following a teaser yesterday, the first full reveal of the forthcoming Air Jordan 11 Wool is finally showcased.

Interestingly, it appears that the sneaker flaunts a premium hairy suede construction instead of wool. In addition, the signature jumpman logo is embossed across the heels, alongside another stamped embroidery that features the letters, “R.S”. Finally, a crisp white rubber sole unit offsets the dark grey upper for a simple two-tone design.

Expect this pair to debut sometime during Holiday 2016 for a price tag of $400.

I like it. It actually doesn’t look that bad, but, I would’ve preferred more woolen materials. It’s nice to see new materials being applied on the silhouette, but, I’m against that price tag.

There are no words to comprehend what may be going through the minds of Jose Fernandez’s family and the Marlins organization. The sudden passing of the ace pitcher has left the city of Miami in shock, but the outpour of support has proven to be valuable solace to those affected the most.

Two weeks ago, SoleFly dropped a teaser for an upcoming collaboration with Jordan Brand inspired by the Florida Marlins organization and its 1997 World Series victory – the first of the franchise’s history. It unpredictably arrives at a time of mourning and sad remembrance, so iIf anything, this collaboration could not have arrived at a better time. It takes a lot to bring a city known for bright lights and unabashed celebrating to its knees, and although Jose’s passing was a big blow to South Beach, the Marlins showed last night that the city would bounce back with ease.

The SoleFly x Air Jordan 23 will release on October 22nd, 2016, limited to 1,500 pairs. Full images of the shoes and pricing info will be revealed soon.

We always knew that LeBron James wanted to be like Michael Jordan. Look at the video up top from early on in his career and you can see the Jordan influence runs deep. From wearing the same jersey number for most of his career to signing with Nike to possibly starring in a Space Jam sequel, James has made no secret about his desire to be “Like Mike” even if he never said it out loud. What’s (slightly) different this time is that he wants to not only reach MJ’s level but go beyond it and go down in history as the game’s greatest player.

Cue the Jordan stans in 5, 4, 3, 2…

During an interview with the Associated Press, James said that it was his “personal goal to be able to be greater than great. I think that should be everybody’s personal goal.” He goes on to say that his desire to chase Jordan’s shadow shouldn’t be seen as unusual because he uses Jordan as the standard of where he wants to be and what he eventually wants to surpass. It’s not about imitation like people want to always make it about, but rather an individual setting a goal and reaching it and jumping over the Jumpman it in time. Huh, sounds like something our boss said a while back.

With three championships, James still has a long way to go if he wants to reach the seven he would need to pass Jordan, but in terms of being basketball’s – especially now that Kobe’s gone – biggest name currently, he has the title hands down. Now the shoes might be a different matter. For all the great kicks James has, he might not have a pair that even comes close to the Space Jam 11s that he would have live up in a Space Jam 2.

Jordan Brand will be giving us yet another new colorway of the Air Jordan 12 (actually two counting the White OVO pair). Just like the Nylon pair that made its retail debut a couple of weeks ago, this new Air Jordan 12 also does away with the traditional leather upper and instead uses something a little more cozy for the upcoming cold weather.

This Air Jordan 12 comes outfitted with a new wool construction all over the upper. All of the wool material on the upper has been done in Dark Grey with Black leather overlays on the mudguard. Metallic Silver accents also appear on the upper eyelets to give the shoe a finishing touch.

Releasing on Saturday, October 1st for $200, will you be picking up a pair? Click and bookmark our official Air Jordan 12 Wool launch page now for more images, the latest info and release details.

I like the new wool construction on the Air Jordan 12 but I think it would have looked better in all-black. So I won?t be spending $200 plus tax since I don?t ?really? like it.

Although their partnership has been short-lived thus far, Drake’s OVO camp and Jordan Brand have produced some of the cleanest Retro releases yet – and it all has to do with the sublime white/gold or black/gold color-combination. On the Air Jordan 12, white and gold look absolutely impeccable, with the treasured huge being placed on key detail points of the silhouette (the eyelets, Jumpman logos, and mid-foot TPU lip). There’s no question that Jordan Brand is owning the best sneaker release of tomorrow, so the question is – how do you purchase? For now, the Air Jordan 12 OVO will release on Saturday morning on Nike SNKRS Drawing, while the OVO online store will release a very limited quantity online. Currently, the OVO flagship stores in Toronto are running in-store raffles and are accepting entries through Thursday, with winners chosen on Friday. Good luck on the release, and get one last detailed look here.

With the changing of the seasons, we also see sneakers switch things up by being covered in a variety of different materials that are more suitable with the change in weather.

Coming into the picture is the Jordan Eclipse which we see here is covered in a thicker type mesh that provides more protection and warmth in comparison to the original mesh versions. Cool Grey dominates the upper of this Eclipse with Black present on the branding. Last but not least we have a Wolf Grey sole unit that finishes off the Fall-inspired colorway that which retailers in the near future. Are any fans of the Jordan Eclipse looking to cop?

The different shades of grey provide a nice look to this Eclipse. It really has that Fall look.

How many of you have a pair of the Air Jordan 1 High Pinnacle in the Vachetta Tan colorway? If you’ve already began to wear the shoe, you will notice that the more miles you put on it, the more the vachetta tan begins to change. The end result is a beautiful looking shoe with that perfect worn in premium leather look.

Taking inspiration from that worn-in look, the Shoe Surgeon creates this dope custom known as the Air Jordan 1 Worn Veg Tan. Using premium and high quality materials, the Shoe Surgeon uses a veg tan leather upper that has the natural worn look and feel. A set of matching leather laces tie up the entire look of the upper together. Below you will find a crepe sole to help give the model even more of a grown and mature look. Check out the images above and the Shoe Surgeons IG here to see more of his dope work!

Keeping your phone charged throughout the day is difficult enough when you’re busy flaunting your latest kicks on Instagram, roasting someone on Twitter, and simultaneously trying to track down the latest Yeezy release via the adidas Confirmed App. Keeping your phone at a full charge while on the go and in style, though? Nearly impossible. At least we thought it was until we stumbled upon this Air Jordan 1 Phone Charger that features an 8,000mah portable charging station hidden in the confines of either the fragment design Air Jordan 1 or the recently released Air Jordan 1 “Banned”.

This Air Jordan 1 Phone Charger easily secures onto your bag or belt loop thanks to a conveniently placed clip on the heel loop and is good for at least one full phone charge on your iPhone or Android device. There’s no word yet on stateside availability, but for now, you can purchase the Fragment 1s and Bred 1 colorways via Yahoo Japan.

I?m biased towards the silhouette and I really like this revamped makeup. It has more lifestyle appeal, plus offering more warmth in the colder months. You can?t go wrong with the colorway. I also like how it looks in various lighting conditions.

The Air Jordan 1 Reverse Shattered Backboard will be making its arrival soon, as more images of the silhouette continue to be unveiled.

Donning a color coordination that is similar to the iconic ?Chicago? theme, the palette is essentially inspired by the infamous jersey that MJ wore during an exhibition match in Italy during 1985. However, this variation, flaunts a reverse finish of its original counterpart. Premium tumbled and smooth leather comprises the sneaker?s build, while contrasting black accents implemented on the Swooshes, wings logo, collar section and laces to cap off its respective theme.

Priced at $160, you can purchase this standout pair at select JB and Nike retailers starting Saturday, October 8th.

While a rendering of the Air Jordan 11 Wool was recently featured, a teaser image of the purported model has now surfaced online.

The silhouette is suggested to bear the same woolen construction that is also evident on the forthcoming AJ 3 Wool and AJ 12 Wool. On this particular imagery, it seems that sneaker will also incorporate suede overlays along the heels, while the iconic jumpman logo is embossed.

With its retail price suggested at $400, you can expect to purchase this pair at select JB and Nike stockists sometime during Holiday 2016.

I?m liking the woolen upper. It?s just nice seeing other materials being applied on the sneaker. The colorway overall is pretty versatile, but, I?ll have to disagree with that price tag ? just like everyone else.
