The Air Jordan 12 keeps the party going this weekend with the release of the all-new Barons colorways. Unfortunately for lots of guys, this pair will only be offered in grade school sizing.

Looking at this Air Jordan 12 we see that it features a White tumbled leather upper with Wolf Grey detailing on the mudguard, outsole, and heel. Hits of Black complete the Barons theme by being placed on the upper eyelets, and the branding on the midsole, tongue, and heel. This colorway is said to be inspired by the Birmingham Barons, the minor league baseball team that Michael Jordan played for during his first retirement from the NBA.

Look for this Jordan retro on August 13, 2016 for $140. Make sure you click and bookmark our Air Jordan 12 GS Barons launch page for the latest images, release information and important updates.

In the past few days we saw the release of the new Jordan Trainer 1 Low in both the Michigan and Neymar colorways. Up next to arrive at retailers will be the Banned colorway that we’ve already taken a look at.

This new Jordan Trainer takes on the classic Bred/Banned look as the upper is covered in Black with Gym Red elephant print all throughout. White accents then appear on the tongue and side panel branding along with the midsole. A translucent Gym Red outsole with “BANNED” written on it completes the look.

You’ll be able to purchase the Jordan Trainer 1 Low Banned at select retailers beginning on September 3rd for $125.

Clean colorway and the added “BANNED” branding on the outsole is a nice touch. If you were thinking about picking up a colorway then you definitely can’t go wrong with this one.

It appears that mid-August is the weekend of the transformed Air Jordan 1. This icon is already getting the ‘Ultra’ treatment, which consists of a classic silhouette with an inner ankle bootie and lighter materials, but it appears that the Deconstructed look is arriving on store shelves too. Simply out, the Air Jordan 1 High Deconstructed strips down to the barest materials, with a one-piece upper achieving the AJ1 look through stitched patterns. It’s almost like the Air Jordan 1 got transformed into a Chuck Taylor. Catch the Air Jordan 1 High Deconstructed at stores this Saturday, August 13th, with a $123 MSRP.

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.

With Team USA basketball dominating the Summer Games in Rio, the newly-introduced Air Jordan 31 in its respective USA-themed colorway will be available to the public very soon to celebrate the international sporting event.

I?m a fan of the theme, but, not the sneaker much. I do like the cleaner look overall, but, I?m not even tempted in purchasing a pair.

The gold hits on the shoe are nice, I just wish there was more of them. Adding more gold in places such as the netting, eyelets and/or laces would definitely help give the shoe some more pop.

By the time this shoe releases, Team USA will have racked up plenty of gold medals at the Olympics in Rio. For all of us Air Jordan fans who aren’t world-class athletes, we can still get some gold of our own with the all-new “gold medal” edition of the Air Jordan 5. Why the Air Jordan 5 since its history is not really related to the Olympic games in any way? We’re not sure, but they still look great anyway with their metallic gold tongues and clean black and white upper. Get your best look yet at the Air Jordan 5 Retro “Gold Tongue” here, and don’t forget that they drop on August 20th at Jordan Brand retailers like SoleFly.

If the tongue wasn’t patent leather/glossy I’m pretty sure I would have bought these. I love the combination of black and gold but that shiny tongue just makes these look too extravagant.

The post Look For The Air Jordan 5 Olympic Later This Month appeared first on KicksOnFire.com.

The wait is almost over. Jordan Brand’s rollout of the Air Jordan 31 featured both an international theme in honor of the Rio Olympics and an homage to the past given the inspiration behind the latest Jordan signature – the iconic Air Jordan 1. This Wednesday, August 10th, The Jordan XXX1 will debut in both a patriotic “USA” colorway and a “Brazil” look at select retailers.

The Jordan 31 is the third straight signature Jumpman model to champion a Flywave woven upper, but this time around, the contours of the silhouette are more lifestyle friendly than ever, taking design cues from the Air Jordan 1. You can find the similarities most notably on the ankle collar and tongue, but the colorways are what truly help this model stand out. The Air Jordan 31 “USA” utilizes a simple white base while accents of University Red and a Deep Royal Blue adds a clean finish.

The Jordan 31 “Brazil” has already released at select international retailers, but stateside availability is overdue. A vibrant touch of royal blue fades into a Volt-like gradient for a vibrant colorway in honor of the Olympics host country. Are you a fan of either colorway?

The Jordan XXX1 “USA” Olympic pair will release on August 10th for $185 USD. Stay updated on more Jordan release dates right here on Sneaker News.
