Just yesterday we received our first glimpse of the Air Jordan 6 Black Cat that is currently scheduled to close out 2016 and release on New Year’s Eve. A day later we get our first full look at the shoe courtesy of the image above.

The Air Jordan 6 Black Cat features an all-black leather upper with 3M detailing on the laces and side panels. The shoe also features perforations on the ankle, side panels, and the toebox. A white midsole and translucent black outsole are the finishing touches on this Air Jordan 6 that is expected to release on December 31, 2016 for $190. Will you be looking to cop or are these a pass for you?

Author’s Take

Based off of these pictures I have to say that I’m disappointed. I expected more. The perforations on the toe are not a good look on this shoe. As of now I can say that I’ll be easily passing on this release.

The wait is finally over. Tomorrow, July 23rd, Jordan Brand is bringing back the iconic Air Jordan 5 Black Metallic with enough original details through the remastering process to be nearly identical to Tinker Hatfield’s creation from 1990. An updated Durabuck upper contrasts a smoother reflective 3M tongue while Fire Red accents work wonderfully with a pre-aged yellow visible air unit. Of course, the main attraction here is the original white ‘Nike Air’ stitching found on the heel which continues the Jumpman’s return to the Swoosh branding that’s been a major asset since late last year. With that remastering process comes an increase of price – retail before tax will be $220 USD. Is it worth it? Check out more detailed photos below and if you don’t want to wait in line for this Air Jordan 5 retro offering, know that you can find select sizes right now on eBay.

I’m biased towards the silhouette and I really like this revamped makeup. It has more lifestyle appeal, plus offering more warmth in the colder months. You can’t go wrong with the colorway.

Dominated by a stealthy black hue across its nubuck upper and midsole unit, the versatile pair is subtly pronounced with grey adorning the signature netting and reflective tongue, alongside shimmering silver accents prominent on the shark teeth-inspired component on the midsole.

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.

Jordan Brand officially unveiled the Air Jordan 1 Bred and Air Jordan 31 Banned yesterday in Las Vegas and we can now add a third silhouette to the black/red collection.

The Jordan Trainer 1 will also be getting the Banned look as you can see with the official images above. The shoe uses a black and red elephant print upper done in a woven jacquard textile material. White accents have then been added on the branding on the tongue and side panels, as well as on the midsole. What makes this pair unique is the word “BANNED” that has been added on the translucent red outsole just like we saw on the Air Jordan 31.

Arriving at select retailers this Summer, will you be picking up the Jordan Trainer 1 Banned? Let us know in the comments below.

Were you able to get your hands on the Jordan Reveal that released as a part of the Quai 54 collection? If you weren’t then here’s in alternate option that has a pretty similar look.

This colorway of the Jordan Reveal takes on the Triple Black color scheme as the entire breathable mesh upper has been done in black as well as the heel, tongue, midsole, outsole, and laces. The only hit of colors lands on the insoles as they’ve been colored in Infrared.

Author’s Take

Another decent all-black sneaker that you can rock on the daily this Summer (or Fall or Winter). If the branding was done in red r silver it would have given the shoe a nice pop.

Meanwhile, over at Jordan Brand…

Las Vegas has been the place to be if you’re basketball junkie looking for to satisfy your hoops diet during the summer months. With Summer League, Team USA Basketball and a whole lot more NBA-related stuff going down this week, it’s the perfect the time for the brands to show off their wares and that includes the all-new Air Jordan 31 (or Air Jordan XXX1 if you want to follow their numbering conventions).

Revealed last night during a special event at the same time the adidas Basketball LVL3 showcase was going down, the concepts behind the Air Jordan 31 and why it bears so much similarities to the iconic Air Jordan 1 was also touched upon. Touted as reboot of the Air Jordan franchise, you can see the literal transition of the shoe and what worked in the 80s with the leather upper and slowly move into the present day and the Flyweave performance woven upper.

But what was also surprising was attendees of the event were also treated to a pair of the Air Jordan 1 Banned that will be set to release later this year. Check out both kicks above that we broadcast poolside from Encore on Facebook Live.

It looks like the “Banned” theme is going to be big for Jordan Brand this fall, as we now spot a third colorway bearing the concept to go along with the Air Jordan 1 and Air Jordan 31. It’s the all-new Jordan Trainer 1 that gets the “Banned” colorway in black and red, referencing the original black and red Air Jordan 1 that was banned by the NBA due to team uniform rules in 1985. Just like the upcoming Air Jordan 31, the Trainer 1 features bold “BANNED” text underneath the translucent red outsole of the shoe, while the upper gets the added bonus of an elephant print jacquard textile. Check out the official images here, and expect the Jordan Trainer 1 to his retailers around the same time as the Air Jordan 31 on September 3rd.

An OG colorway of the Air Jordan 5, the basketball sneaker is essentially dipped in a versatile palette with black across its nubuck upper and midsole unit.

A classic ?Nike Air? logo is seen across the heel, unlike the typical Jumpman logo, while pops of fire red are placed across the tongue and lace locks for a touch of more vibrance.

Finished off with an icy blue translucent outsole and a visible air bubble unit in the heel, you can purchase the model at select JB and Nike retailers on Saturday, July 23 for a price tag of $220.
