I was a fan of these 11s when I first saw them but then I realized that if I were to buy them I probably wouldn?t wear them that much. I?ll just save my $170 and pick up the Bred 1s next week instead.

I?m not that really into the silhouette in a low-cut profile aside from the recent varsity red and navy/gum colorways, but, I like this style even more in this finish. I also like how leather is applied on the upper.

Aside from the standout AJ 11 Low Closing Ceremony, the Air Jordan 1 KO High Obsidian will be dropping at retailers starting this weekend as well.

You can?t go wrong with this silhouette. The construction and colorway on this pair is pretty solid. I?m just a fan of the palette and this is a clean-looking iteration overall.

We’re only a week from the return of one of the most iconic sneakers of all time – the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Banned”. Michael Jordan took the league by storm his rookie season and it wasn’t just his elite play, but in the famous words of Spike Lee’s Mars Blackmon character, “It’s gotta be the shoes.” At the time, what’s now considered the iconic “Bred” look of Black and Varsity Red throughout the Air Jordan 1‘s leather upper was deemed a bit too flashy by NBA standards, so the league office let MJ know that he’d be fined every game that he wore the colorway. Nike capitalized on the controversy and then some with clever advertisements and an all press is good press mantra. Now over 30 years later, the Air Jordan 1 Banned is a lifestyle icon.

This year’s Jordan 1 Banned retro features a premium tumbled leather on the toebox and Swoosh branding for a Remastered attention to detail missing in past releases. The quality control should please traditionalists with touches of ‘Nike Air’ branding landing on the tongue tag and a crisp white insole to match the original 1985 release. Three lace options of black, red, and white will come with the pair. Be sure to check out Nike’s official images of the Air Jordan 1 Banned after the break, and if you can’t wait until next Saturday, find your size on eBay.

Marcus Jordan will be celebrating the three month anniversary of his new retail space, Trophy Room, by releasing a new collaboration with Jordan Brand.

Trophy Room has taken the new lifestyle-inclined Jordan Reveal and dressed it up with a black mesh upper with green and yellow accents. At first glance it may look like an Oregon collaboration, but the inspiration actually comes from the Rio Olympics and the Brazilian population in Orlando, the hometown of Trophy Room. As you can see above, the shoe will comes in sizing for the entire family and will retail in men’s sizes for $130. Along with the Trophy Room x Jordan Reveal, there will also be some special Jordan Slides releasing in black and white for $65 each. Both the sneakers and slides will be releasing excluisvely at Trophy Room on August 27th.

If this were a different silhouette perhaps more people would have payed attention, but not many people care for the Jordan Reveal.

The timeless Air Jordan 1 in the iconic Bred/Banned colorway which first debuted in 1985, will be returning once again, as additional official imagery of the forthcoming remastered silhouette continue to be unveiled.

Renowned for violating the league?s uniform code with a $5,000 fine when worn on the court, black and red essentially covers its its premium leather composition. While this pair mimics its 1985 counterpart, this 2016 variation, however, does not incorporate the distinctive ?X? detailing on the heel which was seen on the 2011 rendition. Although, the classic ?Nike Air? branding has been implemented on the tongue.

Finished off with the iconic wings logo across its ankles, a clean white midsole unit and red outsole — you can buy this pair at select JB and Nike accounts on September 3 for a price tag of $160.

Like I shared before, it?ll be interesting to see how this model does. This variation looks really solid. I always wondered if the brand would explore new materials and apply it on classics just to see how it would be received. For example, the utilization of flyknit or engineered mesh as well.

The “Banned” colorway of the Air Jordan 1, set to release alongside the Air Jordan 31 on September 3rd, is most certainly a must-have sneaker of the Fall season. Unlike the late 2013 release of the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG, the upcoming 2016 version won’t be a limited release as it played a major role in the marketing and unveiling of the newest Jordan shoe. Quite frankly we’re surprised (and relieved) that Jordan Brand didn’t release the shoes in a pack to boost the struggling sales of the XXX1, but what makes this even sweeter is that the AJ1s are releasing in a LOT of doors. Footaction and Finishline are stocking them nationwide, and we expect the same for Foot Locker, Eastbay, and even your local sneaker boutique. Stay tuned for more updates on the release as we near September 3rd.
