Author’s Take

Nike/Jordan Brand continues to release great USA-themed sneakers this year with Air Jordan 31 being another one we can add to the list. The only thing stopping me from buying this shoe is the white Flyweave material since it’s so hard to keep clean.

Golden Child: Kawhi Leonard Seen Wearing An All-Gold Air Jordan 12

AIR JORDAN 12 2 AIR JORDAN 12 1

Being a member of Jordan Brand has its perks, such as being able to have certain sneakers that nobody else in the world can get their hands on.

Kawhi Leonard is one of the biggest names on the Jordan Brand team right now and he was recently spotted wearing one of the craziest Jordan retros ever. In the image above Leonard is seen wearing an all-gold colorway of the Air Jordan 12. The shoe feature a metallic gold upper with black accents and a translucent outsole. There’s no doubt that these are FIRE! Let’s not get too excited though because the possibility of these ever hitting retailers is probably very very slim.

What are your thoughts on this colorway of the Air Jordan 12? Would you cop if they ever did hit retailers?

These look beautiful! However I don’t think I would actually wear these, I’d probably have them up on display.

The Air Jordan 12 GS Barons will be the latest edition of the silhouette’s grade school variation this summer, as the distinctive palette is reminiscent of MJ?s days with the Birmingham Barons in 1994, which is essentially a minor league baseball team and Double-A affiliate of the Chicago White Sox major-league club.

Comprised of premium leather, the sneaker flaunts a traditional palette of white/grey, while it’s pronounced with pops of black notably evident on the upper eyelets, side panels, tongue, heel tabs and branding on the rear.

Additional imagery of the upcoming Air Jordan 31 Rio (Green Abyss) is provided, as the model is set to make its debut in a couple of more days.

Essentially paying tribute to the host nation of the 2016 Summer Olympics, the basketball sneaker is treated in Brazil’s signature colors with ghost green and green abyss covering its flyweave and synthetic leather upper. Juxtaposed nicely against a clean white midsole unit and icy translucent outsole, the model is topped off with an enlarged Jumpman branding on the heel, alongside more branding on the tongue and bottom.

Retailing for $185, you can purchase a pair at select Nike and Jordan Brand retailers nationwide starting Friday, August 12th.


Author’s Take

I?m not really against the shoe?s design. I?m a fan of the simple makeup but the large Jumpman bothers me a bit. This is a nice commemorative colorway though for the host country though.

The Air Jordan 1 Gets Deconstructed For The Summer

AIR JORDAN 1 5 AIR JORDAN 1 6 AIR JORDAN 1 7 AIR JORDAN 1 8

After giving you a first look last week, we now get better images of the upcoming Air Jordan 1 Retro High Deconstructed.

Just as the name implies, this Air Jordan 1 has basically been stripped down. The classic silhouette has been deconstructed to look like the upper is made out of a thin canvas material. The most notable features are the stitching detailing all over the upper and white sole unit. This pair comes with a tonal Ivory upper and will release on August 13th for $123.

Author’s Take

The material on these 1s looks too flimsy. I don’t really like them based off the pictures. But maybe they look better in person.

Jordan Brand is giving the Air Jordan 1 its most simple and stripped down look ever this Summer.

Known as the Air Jordan 1 Retro High Deconstructed, this revamped and chopped down version of the Air Jordan 1 takes a simple approach by getting rid of the traditional leather upper. Instead we see a thin canvas material takes its place that features stitched detailing throughout with Wings branding on the ankle and Nike Air branding on the tongue. This black pair that features a white sole unit will join the Ivory pair and will release on August 13, 2016 for $123.

Author’s Take

I’m not really sure how I feel about the deconstructed look on the Air Jordan 1. The shoe looks unfinished to me.
