Unless you were down to spend big money on the Kubo x Air Jordan 15, chances you don’t have a pair of these. With the being the case, I guess the next best thing is simply look at the shoe, right?

Created as a tribute to the animated film Kubo and the Two Strings, the Kubo x Air Jordan 15 rocks a mismatched look as the left shoe comes in Black and Blue, while the right pair comes in Black and Red. Notable features on the shoe include the quilted detailing. A ?Raiden the Moon King? graphic is placed on the ankle, an of course, take a look at the heel! Rocking a furry construction, the back portion of the shoe is said to represent the protagonist?s monkey friend. Yeah, I know it’s a crazy look! Thoughts on the shoe? If these were to be GRs, would you have copped? Let us know in the comments below.

The Air Jordan 13 Low Brave Blue Drops Spring Of 2017

It looks like the Air Jordan 13 Low in the Chutney colorway will not be the only pair of 13 Lows dropping next year. Also getting the retro treatment is the return of the Air Jordan 13 Low Brave Blue.

Once simply known as the Air Jordan 13 Low Navy, Jordan Brand changes up the name but the aesthetics of the shoe remains the same. Above you will see a first look at the shoe that shows the back portion of the 2017 drop. For those not familiar with this colorway, it made its initial debut back in 1998 as the Air Jordan 13 Low Navy. The upper consists of a Carolina Blue sitting on top of a Black base. From this point of view, it appears as if mesh and suede/nubuck make up the construction of the shoe. White accents on the sole and branding round out the look of the shoe. Said to be dropping sometime in December for $175, are you low-key excited about this release?

Author’s Take

I’ve never been too big on the 13 Lows, but if I had to choose a colorway, it would definitely be the Air Jordan 13 Low Brave Blue. It reminds me of the Air Jordan 13 Fling which I’m a big fan of.

Surprise: The Air Jordan 1 High OG Storm Blue Is Releasing In December!

Did you think that the Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred was the last OG colorway of the Jordan 1 to drop this year? Think again! We just got word that Jordan Brand is also planning on bringing back the Air Jordan 1 High OG Storm Blue. Yup, more OG goodness is right around the corner.

Aboe you will see a first look at the Storm Blue colorway of the Jordan 1. For those of you not to familiar with this OG rendition of the Jordan 1, it comes constructed out of a White leather base accented by the Storm Blue placed throughout the shoe. Nike Air Branding on the tongue makes this an OG retro, while the Wings branding on the color complete the look of the upper. Below you will find a White midsole paired up with a Storm Blue outsole. Where would you rank this colorway when it comes to other OG colorways on the Jordan 1s? Said to be dropping on December 23rd for $160 (we assume), are you excited about this release? Let us know in the comments below.

Dope OG colorway of the Jordan 1 to bring back. I will definitely be picking up a pair if the quality is similar to the Jordan 1 Breds that just dropped. Nice surprise!

After seeing the release of the Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred and the Air Jordan 31 Banned this past weekend, Jordan Brand will be shifting their attention back to the Air Jordan 12 this upcoming weekend.

A White rubber outsole and a Gym Red Jumpman on the tongue complete the look on this Jordan 12 that arrives at retailers on September 10th for $190. Full family sizing will be offered as well ? GS (3.5Y ? 7Y), PS (10.5c ? 3Y) and TD (2c ? 10c) sizes are listed for $140, $80 and $60 respectively.

Author’s Take

I like this colorway of the Air Jordan 12, but not enough to pay $190 for it. Plus I’d have to try it on and see how that nylon materials feels on your feet. I don’t plan on picking up a pair at the moment.

Russell Westbrook was in China this past weekend promoting the release of the Air Jordan 1 and Air Jordan 31 Banned. But he wasn’t just wearing the two new releases on his feet for the festivities, the NBA superstar was also spotted wearing what is believed to be his 2nd lifestyle signature shoe with Jordan Brand.

Known as the Jordan Westbrook 0.2, Russell wore two different colorways of the shoe – one featuring a black/green/brown camo upper and another with a full olive makeup. The Jordan Westbrook 0.2 features a suede construction on the upper with Jordan 1 tooling on the sole. Westbrook’s “RW” logo has been placed on the tongue with the Jumpman landing on the heel.

No official unveiling has taken place for the Jordan Westbrook 0.2 just yet, but stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates. In the meantime let us know your thoughts on the shoe.

Author’s Take

My initial take is that I like this pair better than the first. The Jordan 1 tooling is a nice touch. The toebox and tongue also kind of reminds me of the Jordan 6.

I love the Air Jordan 4 but I’m not really convinced with this colorway. If more color would have been added I think it may have looked better.

The Air Jordan 12 Nylon (Neoprene) won’t be the only Air Jordan 12 arriving at retailers this weekend. Also releasing exclusively for the ladies will be a new colorway known as the Plum Fog pair that is part of Jordan Brand’s Heiress Collection.

Looking at this new colorway of the Air Jordan 12, we can see that it comes colored with Light Bone on the majority of the upper that is constructed out of a premium leather material. Plum Fog is then placed on the inner liner, outsole, branding, and heel. Gold upper eyelets have been added to provide a nice pop to this colorway.

Look for the Air Jordan 12 GS Plum Fog at select Jordan Brand retailers beginning on September 10th for $160.

Author’s Take

Much like the neon pink pair that released earlier this year, I feel that this colorway is suited more for the women. Easy pass on these for me.

Russell Westbrook Debuts New Jordan Lifestyle Shoe During China Tour

It looks like a new PE colorway of the Air Jordan 31 isn’t the only sneaker of note Russell Westbrook is breaking out during his current Flight Tour in Asia. Just spotted is an all-new Jordan Brand lifestyle shoe on his feet, which could be the sequel to the Westbrook 0. From what we can tell, the at this point unknown shoe is built atop the sole of the Vandal/Jordan 1 KO, and the upper seems to go for a militaristic aesthetic, at least for the camo and olive suede colorways we get a first look at. They also feature Westbrook’s “RW” logo on the tongue, further giving us reason to believe that they could be his next signature off-court model. Stay tuned to Sneaker News for more details.

The Air Jordan 13 Chinese Singles Day Debuts This Fall

Air Jordan 13 Air Jordan 13 1 Air Jordan 13 2 Air Jordan 13 3 Air Jordan 13 4 Air Jordan 13 5 Air Jordan 13 6 Air Jordan 13 7

A new variation of the Air Jordan 13 is suggested to make its debut this Fall 2016, as it’s rumored to pay tribute to Chinese Singles Day, which is essentially a holiday that celebrates the status of being single.

While it’s colored in a more Valentine’s Day-appropriate colorway of red with black accents, the sneaker also bears special insoles and a leather upper that reveals a unique graphic when rubbed off — similar to the previous ?Wings? release.

Set to release on November 11th, the same day that Singles? Day is celebrated, it’s still unclear if this pair will be a China-exclusive only.

Stay tuned to KicksOnFire for more updates.

Author’s Take

Hopefully it’s not exclusive overseas. This color combo is a classic and it looks solid on the silhouette. I’m sure a lot of fans will appreciate a pair, even if they’re not single (haha).
