It’s baaaaaackkkkkk!!!!

In less than 24 hours we’ll be seeing the return of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Bred. Considered by many as the shoe that started the craze for sneakers, this Air Jordan 1 will be returning after last being seen in 2013. This time around the sneaker gets a premium look as a tumbled leather has been placed on the Varsity Red portions of the shoe that land on the toebox, heel, ankle, and the Swoosh. The Black leather areas are not tumbled leather, but are an upgrade in comparison to the 2013 version. A White midsole and Varsity Red outsole finish off the legendary sneaker.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Bred will be releasing tomorrow, September 3rd, in Men’s ($160) and GS ($120) sizes. Will you try to cop or are you happy with your 2013 pair?

After getting a first look at this upcoming Wheat colorway of the Air Jordan 4, we’re back with some more pictures of the shoe that seems to take inspiration from the popular Timberland boot.

With the Fall season right around the corner, Jordan Brand has decided to cover the Air Jordan 4 with a Ginger premium leather upper for that “Wheat” look that has become a trend during the Fall season. Leather laces along with special quilted insoles add to the premium look of this Air Jordan 4. A gum outsole has been added as a finishing touch.

No release date is available at the moment but stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

I?m a really big fan of the Air Jordan 4 but my first opinion is that I don?t like this colorway. Maybe when I see more images I may change my mind, but right now I?m not a fan.

A few weeks ago we heard rumblings that the highly sought after Air Jordan 1 Royal could be returning some time in 2017. On the eve of the release of the Air Jordan 1 High OG Bred, it is now being confirmed by The Shoe Game that the Royals will indeed be returning next year.

The Royal 1s will be joining the Chicagos, Breds, and possibly the Black Toes, as OG Air Jordan 1s that will be getting the remastered treatment. The Royal 1s are expected to release some time during the Summer of 2017 and will do so with a new premium look and of course the beloved Nike Air branding on the tongue.

How excited are you about this news? Many people have been waiting for the Royal 1s to return being that the last time they released they were so limited. And considering how crazy resell prices have gotten these days, it’s nice to have a chance to buy them at retail. Stay tuned to Kicks On Fire for updates.

I’ve never owned a pair of Royal 1s and it would be nice to be able to have a pair. Hopefully they’re not that limited this time around and I’m able to grab a pair.

Russell Westbrook is currently in China with Jordan Brand for the Flight Tour, spreading hoops love across the world. And there’s something special you’ll want to take note of: the new Air Jordan 31 PE on his feet. The never before seen colorway features a stealthy blacked out upper with metallic green detailing at the heel and his “RW” stamped on each tongue. Since this isn’t a colorway matching his team uniform in Oklahoma City, we assume this may be a colorway made just for the Flight Tour. Would you like to see these hit retail? Get a closeup look here, and you can also spot Russell wearing the PE XXX1’s on the @Jumpman23 Snapchat and Instagram Stories.

The Air Jordan 1 Rare Air model made its debut over a year ago. Jordan Brand released this version of the Jordan 1 as a way to celebrate the Jordan 1’s 30 year anniversary. Although we’re now on anniversary 31, it looks like the celebration will continue with brand new colorways such as the Air Jordan 1 Rare Air Alternate Royal you see above.

First look at the shoe and it appears as if the Air Jordan 1 Rare Air Alternate Royal could be the child of the Air Jordan 1 Royal and Air Jordan 1 Fragment if shoes could ever have babies. Of course that could never happen since shoes don’t have babies, but you know what I mean! Constructed out of a leather upper, Royal Blue takes care of most of the shoe, while White is seen on the side panels and Black takes care of the collar, tongue, laces, toe and Nike Swoosh. A White midsole and Royal Blue outsole can be seen below. “AIR JORDAN” branding is placed on the side of the ankle, tonal Nike Air branding is on the heel, while a Royal Jumpman is noted on the tongue. Thoughts on the shoe? Keep it locked to find out when you can get a pair.

Not bad. I do see a little bit of Royal-inspiration behind it. This is a pair I would get if I were not able to get the Royals that drop next year.

Although it was officially revealed in July, the newly-introduced Air Jordan 31 Banned edition will finally be available to the public starting this weekend.

Essentially a design inspired by the iconic Air Jordan 1, the model is treated in the classic black and red colorway which first debuted in 1985. Composed of flyweave throughout the majority of its upper, leather accents converge on the rear to solidify its build. Signature Jordan elements such as the wings logo and a subtle Swoosh are evident on the side panels, while a large Jumpman is placed across its heel.

Rounded out with FlightSpeed technology with full-length Zoom Air that enhances court feel, responsiveness and lateral support, you can purchase this pair at select JB and Nike retailers tomorrow, September 3 for a price tag of $185.

GS sizing (4y – 7y) will be offered as well and retail for $160.

I?m not really crazy about it, but, I really do like refined makeup. The only thing that bothers me is the large Jumpman branding. It should?ve been removed or just sized smaller.

The iconic Air Jordan 1 in its classic Bred/Banned colorway will finally be available to the public once again, starting tomorrow.

Initially introduced back in 1985, the sneaker was renowned for violating the league?s uniform code when worn on the court. Donning the now ubiquitous black and red color scheme across its premium leather construction, this 2016 variation, however, does not incorporate the distinctive ?X? detail on the heel, which was a prominent element on the 2011 edition. Although, the classic ?Nike Air? branding has been implemented on the tongue and insoles for its retro appeal.

With the iconic wings logo also gracing across its ankles, the model is finished off with a clean white midsole unit and red outsole. You can purchase a pair at JB and Nike accounts worldwide starting tomorrow, Saturday, September 3 for $160.

GS sizes (3.5y ? 7y) will be offered as well and retail for $120.

Way back in December of 2015, there were rumors circulating that the Air Jordan 13 Low Chutney would be making its return sometime this year (2016). That turned out to be false reports. We now got word that the shoe will still be releasing, but it will be doing so in 2017.

Said to be returning in the Summer of 2017, the Jordan 13 Low Chutney will release alongside the Air Jordan 13 Low Navy, which will be renamed the Brave Blue. The Chutney 13 Lows made their debut back in 1998 and haven’t released again even since. Are you happy to see these making a return? Let us know in the comments below.

I really like the look of the shoe. I really hate the price tag on it. This is a shoe I like, but I also don’t see myself wearing it a lot. It’s a little too fancy for my taste.
