We just came across another image of the Air Jordan 3 Trophy Room, courtesy of dnpsneakz. I know we just went over the shoe, but for people who can’t get enough of these beautiful looking 3s, here is some more eye-candy for you.

It’s not every day you see a suede constructed Jordan 3 as clean as this pair, so whenever you come across one, make sure you put some respek on it. The tonal upper minimally contrasted by the hits of Black and Gold make this a very versatile looking shoe. As we’ve mentioned before, this is Trophy Room’s 1-of-1 exclusive, that means if you like the shoe, the odds of you getting a pair are slim to none. You can look, but you can’t touch. Check these out at the grand opening of Trophy Room this coming Monday.

One of my favorite retros from the Trophy Room collection.

Aside from the AJ 2 Low Chicago, AJ 12 GS University Blue, Swooshles AJ 1 Lows and the standout AJ 4 PRM Snakeskin that released earlier today, this Gym Red colorway of the new Air Jordan 30 has dropped at select retailers as well.

Essentially flaunting the defining vivid tone across its mixed material woven upper in a sleek gradient finish, the brightest is prominent along the toe box, medial section and distinctive ?XXX? motif located on the heel.

Complemented with black directed at the rear and heel unit, additional tonal hits are applied on the tongue, inner lining, laces and collar to solidify a BRED-inspired palette.

Finished off with a subtle galaxy theme on a portion of the midsole and an icy translucent outsole, you can purchase a pair at select JB and Nike stockists today, for $200.

These latest colorways on the silhouette have been superb. I know a lot of fans are disappointed with the design (I?m not), but this upcoming colorway is pretty solid. I?m just biased.

Last seen in 1994, the Air Jordan 2 Low Chicago will be making its triumphant return 22 years later.

Worn by Michael Jordan back in his early days in the NBA, the Air Jordan 2 Low Chicago is one of the few low-top sneakers that Michael actually wore on the court. Dressed in a White leather upper with textured detailing around the ankle, the Chicago theme is then completed with Varsity Red and Black detailing throughout the shoe. If you’re a person that likes to collect classic sneakers that MJ actually wore then this is a pair that you don’t wanna pass up on.

Cop yours at select Jordan Brand retailers on May 21st for $160. Also make sure you visit our Air Jordan 2 Low Chicago launch page for all of the images, news and release information we have on this release.

I’m still mad that these are releasing in low-top form and not the original Mid version. If that were the case I would have grabbed these without thinking twice.

Finishing off the Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh collection is the Trooper (olive) colorway. Today we bring you some on-feet shots courtesy of Lapstone & Hammer so you have an idea of what they’ll look like if you’re looking to cop.

Just like the other two pairs from this collection, this Air Jordan 1 comes with a premium tumbled leather upper in a nice shade of green that makes it easy for you to wear with a variety of fits. Added details include gold aglets, Nike Air branding on the tongue, and a Sail unit to provide the perfect touch of contrast.

Just like the black pair, I think this is a super clean colorway that you can match up with lots of different things and still have it look good.

The second colorway from the Air Jordan 1 Low No Swoosh collection is this Arctic Orange pair that is clearly the best option for the Summer thanks to its vibrant upper.

Equipped with a premium tumbled leather all throughout the upper that looks like something we would usually see on a designer shoe, this low-top version of the Air Jordan 1 is then covered in an Arctic Orange hue that screams Spring/Summer. As you already know there is no Swoosh on this pair of 1s so the only branding comes with the Nike Air on the tongue and Wings logo on the heel. Last we see a Sail sole unit added for contrast.

If you wanna cop a pair just to rock for the Spring and Summer this is the one to go with. That pink/orange upper is too clean.

Tomorrow Jordan Brand will be giving the iconic Air Jordan 1 a completely new look as they plan on releasing three tonal colorways of the Air Jordan 1 Low.

If you were planning on picking up either of the three colorways today we show you some on-feet pictures of all three to get you ready for the release. First we have the Black pair which features tumbled leather all over the upper with a contrasting Sail midsole and Nike Air branding on the tongue. A nice finishing touch is the gold aglets that give a nice pop of contrast. And of course we can’t forget about the absence of the Swoosh branding.

I expect this to be the pair that sell out the fastest because you can match up black with anything and have it look good. I still can’t get over how nice that leather is.

It doesn’t look like Jordan Brand will be following the “champagne & cigar” theme on the Championship which I think it a good thing. Time to switch things up.

Many people are looking forward to the release of the Air Jordan 12 Flu Game next week, but there is also another Air Jordan 12 that features a heavy dose of red that will be dropping this Summer.

What many people have been calling the “reverse Cherry” pair, this new colorway of the Air Jordan 12 features a Gym Red tumbled leather on the majority of the upper with White accents on the mudguard, heel, midsole, outsole and branding. The shoe is then finished off with a black inner liner.

You’ll be able to get your hands on the Air Jordan 12 Gym Red when it hits retailers on July 2nd for a retail price of $190. Make sure you bookmark our Air Jordan 12 Gym Red launch page to keep up with the latest updates on this release.

I’m kind of stuck between grabbing these or the Cherry 12s. I haven’t heard updates on the Cherrys releasing this year so I may have to pick up these Gym Reds.

In September of 2009, Michael Jordan’s and his countless career accomplishments were finally enshrined into the Hall of Fame. What followed was a long speech from the man himself, who revealed a rare bit of emotion as tears began to stream down his face. This moment of Jordan in his most human form, however, went on to become one of the most viral memes in the history of the internet, acting as the chief option for depicting a loss, failure, and anything the like. So what does the photography who actually took the photo think of this whole thing? AP photographer Stephan Savoia finally spoke out about experiencing this moment and how this image took on a life of its own, and gladly, he was able to take it lightly because he himself thinks its absolutely hilarious. Do you think the Jordan Crying Meme will ever die? Check out this great piece of journalism by 2 Point Lead below.

Arriving at select retailers tomorrow is the most luxurious Air Jordan 4 ever. Along with the all-black pair that released earlier this year, Jordan Brand has placed the premium tag on this colorway of the Air Jordan 4 along with a premium price tag of $400.

Looking at this Air Jordan 4 we can see that it comes draped in a luxurious upper that features a snakeskin print/pattern on a large portion of the upper. The light bone premium leather upper is then accented by copper detailing on the eyelets and heel tab, wax laces and a de-bossed Jumpman on the tongue.

Releasing on May 21st for a retail price of $400, how many of you will dish out the cash to add this Air Jordan 4 to your collection. Make sure you check in with our Air Jordan 4 PRM Snakeskin launch page to see the latest images, videos, news and other updates.

Author’s Take

I love the Air Jordan 4 but it’s hard to justify spending $400 on any colorway that drops. I’ll admit that the snakeskin leather does look nice on this pair, but it’s not worth $400 in my personal opinion.

Although a pioneer of the mid-top silhouette with the Air Jordan III that helped lower the height of most basketball sneakers from the high-tops common during the 1980’s, Michael Jordan never went all the way down to a low very often. Along with the Air Jordan XI Low IE that he wore sporadically in 1996, the most notable low-tops MJ wore on court are the Air Jordan II’s. Released in 1987, Jordan wore the shoe fairly often during that season, making it the most-worn low-top model of his career. Not released in its original white, black, and red colorway since 1994 with the first-ever run of Air Jordan retros, the underrated Air Jordan 2 Low is finally back again this weekend. The historic low-tops are on the shelves tomorrow at select Jordan Brand retailers like Rock City Kicks.

Jordan Brand’s Pinnacle Series is back this weekend with the release of the Air Jordan 4 Pinnacle “Snakeskin”. It seems like quite some time since we last saw the customization game upping the ante with this iconic Jordan silhouette wrapped in python skin, but the Jumpman took notice. Gone are the accents of 24K gold and instead this release focuses on premium leather paired with detailed serpent textures throughout for what promises to be the boldest take on the Air Jordan 4 yet. Grab your pair this Saturday, May 21st for $400 or search for your size right now via eBay.

Michael Jordan’s first three-peat with the Chicago Bulls ended after a victory over Charles Barkley and the Phoenix Suns and the surprising off-season decision to retire from the game of basketball to pursue his father’s dream – playing professional baseball. In honor of the 23rd anniversary of the feat, Jordan Brand is releasing two premium Air Jordan 8 colorways as a part of the ongoing “Champagne and Cigar Pack” referencing the two celebratory treats after taking home the Larry O’Brien trophy. Today we get a detailed look at the Air Jordan 8 “Champagne”, a pair that boasts a premium Light Bone leather upper complete with a contrasting Metallic Gold patent leather on the mudguard to match the strap accents. Expect this pair to hit select retailers in a limited quantity on June 25th for a premium price point of $250 USD. Will you be picking up a pair? Let us know in the comments section.

I?ve shared before that I?m a fan of the silhouette. I like the simplicity of this palette, especially since the upper is all-white. A nice pair for the youngsters or ladies.

Joining alongside the notable AJ 2 Low Chicago, AJ 4 PRM Snakeskin and AJ 12 GS University Blue this weekend will be the latest variation of the new Air Jordan 30.

The defining gym red hue essentially covers the basketball sneaker’s mixed material woven upper, while it’s treated in gradient finish to emit a sleeker look. The brightest portion is along its medial, toe box and distinctive “XXX” motif on the heel, while it subtly fades to black on the rear.

Further detailed with a reinforcing toe cap, additional black accents grace the tongue, laces, inner lining, collar and heel unit to solidify its “BRED” palette, while a subtle galaxy theme is evident on a portion of the midsole.

All resting atop an icy translucent outsole, you can purchase this pair at select JB and Nike stockists on Saturday, May 21st for $200.
