With this year marking a celebration of the Air Jordan 12, another colorway of the classic silhouette will be offered this summer 2016.

Sporting a simplistic palette overall, wolf grey dominates the majority of its leather upper, tongue and laces, while pristine white converges along its forefoot and midsole unit. Pops of blue are applied on the rear, lining of its pull tabs and miniature branded side panels to nicely complement the theme, as metallic silver eyelets offer a subtle shimmering finish.

You can expect to find this pair at select JB and Nike accounts on June 25th for a retail price tag of $190.

I like the simplicity of the silhouette?s profile. In this colorway, it?s solid, but I would have preferred it more without the touches of Blue. It?ll still sell well though.

Joining the revival of the popular Varsity Red colorway this summer 2016 will be another appealing iteration of the Air Jordan 11 Low.

Flaunting an understated hue of navy covering the mesh upper, laces, tongue, eye stays, distinctive patent leather mudguard and inner lining, smooth tonal leather is also utilized for the heel tab.

Offset against a crisp white midsole unit and classic gum outsole to finish off the profile, additional accents of white are evidenced on the rear, which consists of the number ?23? embroidery and a mini version of the iconic Jumpman logo.

Priced at $170, you can expect to find this pair at select JB and Nike retailers sometime this spring/summer 2016.

I really like this pair in varsity red only, but this pair is alright. The color combo is great and it should still garner some attention.

Michael Jordan’s 6 Championship rings serve as a constant reminder for those current players trying to usurp his label as the greatest basketball player of all time. Not even Kobe Bryant could tie the tally or awe that came with a signature sneaker release, but Nike Basketball’s Kobe imprint tried its hardest to replicate some of the success found in no.23’s lineage. Jordan Brand continues to pay homage to Mike’s on-court success with the Air Jordan 8 Champagne and Air Jordan 8 Cigar releases headed to retailers on June 25th for $250 each. The premium pairs utilize different premium accents from gold patent leather or black confetti print to nod at the celebratory bottle popping and cigar smoking after MJ’s third straight championship in 1993 to clinch his first three-peat. Be sure to head over to our Jordan release dates page for a better look at the Jumpman’s latest scheduled slate and let us know what you think of this year’s Cigar & Champagne Collection by taking your thoughts to the comments section.

I’m generally a fan of the silhouette. I like the colorway overall but mostly how the upper was kept all-white. This is a nice offering for the young ones.

Following luxurious croc iterations, the Air Jordan Horizon is introduced in another colorway for the season, this time utilizing popular shades.

Essentially a hybrid lifestyle silhouette which is reminiscent of the classic AJ 13, the sneaker is defined by its one-piece woven upper. Colored in black and red, the vibrant hue is continued on to its outsole, while a clean white midsole unit finishes off the profile.

Additional details include leather lining for premium flair and matching black laces. Priced at $150, you can purchase a pair at select JB and Nike accounts now.

Author’s Take

I’m not a fan of hybrid models much. This design is alright, but it’s more appealing because of the classic colorway. Still a pass for me though.

Alongside the AJ 1 High OG David Letterman, a new colorway of the Air Jordan 6 GS will make its arrival to retailers as well this weekend.

Exclusive to kids only, the silhouette is rendered in a monochromatic color scheme with dark and light grey utilized for its plush nubuck-based upper. Complementing the understated theme consists of the defining vivid greenish tone, which are applied on the midsole, lace lock and heel tab.

Additionally detailed with perforations on the side panels and ankle portion for breathability, the sneaker is topped off by icy blue translucent outsole.

Fans can purchase a pair at select JB and Nike accounts this Saturday, April 30th for $140.

In late 2015 we were hit with the news that the Air Jordan 1 High OG Banned was going to be making a return in 2016.

Today we get a look at what is believed to be a first leaked image of the Air Jordan 1 that features a red and black leather upper with a contrasting white midsole and a red outsole. As you can see the sneaker does come with the OG Nike Air branding on the tongue but from this lone image it’s pretty hard to tell if the “X” has been placed on the heel like it was on the 2011 Banned release. Whether this will be known as the Banned or Bred colorway is still unclear, but we’ll keep you updated here at Kicks On Fire.

This Air Jordan 1 is scheduled to release during Labor Day Weekend on September 3rd for $160. Make sure to bookmark our Air Jordan 1 High OG Banned launch page to stay updated with the latest images, release information and other important updates.

Whether this is the Banned or Bred release doesn’t matter too much to me. I would just love to add a pair to my collection because I’ve always wanted this colorway of the Air Jordan 1.

The Air Jordan 8 Championship Pack now has a release date and it’s coming at us quick.

Celebrating the third championship from Michael Jordan’s 1st threepeat, this pack will include two colorways of the Air Jordan 8, the sneaker he wore while capturing his 3rd NBA Championship. This first Air Jordan 8 comes with a predominantly White upper and gold detailing on the heel counter that is believed to represent the Larry O?Brien trophy. The second pair comes in all-black with confetti detailing on the heel to represent the celebrating moment of capturing the NBA title.

At the moment these are the only two teaser images that have surfaced but make sure you stay tuned to Kicks On Fire to see more. The Air Jordan 8 Championship Pack is currently expected to release on June 25th but if anything changes we’ll be sure to let you know. To stay in the loop with this release make sure you keep up with our Air Jordan 8 Championship Pack launch page for the latest updates.

Author’s Take

The gold heel counter on the white pair is a nice detail that represents the Larry O’Brien trophy. I’m not a fan of the Air Jordan 8 so I don’t anticipate picking up either pair from this pack.

The Air Jordan Spike 40 didn’t do as well as Jordan Brand expected when the new Spike Lee silhouette made its debut last year. They even tried switching things up and created a low-top version to appeal to the masses, but even that didn’t work.

Now Spike and the Jumpman will be trying something else as we take a look at this grade school colorway that you see above. Utilizing the low-top version in an all-black upper, a checkerboard print and a polka dot print can be seen covering the upper along with contrasting red and white accents.

Do the subtle prints on the upper make you like the Air Jordan Spike 40 more than before or are these still a pass for you? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Author’s Take

No matter if it’s a low-top or a high-top or if it has print or no prints, I just don’t like this silhouette. Jordan Brand needs to just stop making new colorways and give up on the Spike 40.

While Jordan Brand’s on-court footwear products continue to raise the bar in terms of design and performance, their lifestyle product begins to etch its place in casual wear. With silhouettes like the Jordan Eclipse and the newly-launched Jordan Reveal leading the charge, off-the-court Jays are no longer limited to Retros. The Reveal, styled here by Jordan athlete Jimmy Butler, features a mesh upper for supreme breathability for the looming hot summer months, while the super-comfy sole featuring Air, herringbone traction, and flex grooves provides all the comfort your feel will ever need. You can purchase either the “Vachetta Tan” or the cooler all-black colorway right now directly from Nike, so check out this sweet look-book with Butler in the black/white colorway below.

Summer 2016 is sure to be a hot one in terms of both the weather and sneaker releases.

With the hottest time of the year growing closer and closer it’s the ideal time to release low-top sneakers. One of those low-top shoes that will be releasing in a couple of different colorwas is the Air Jordan 11. Today we take a closer look at the Navy/Gum colorway that will be dropping Summer Sixteen (shout out to Drake). Covered in Navy on the entire upper including the nylon mesh and the patent leather mudguard, this Summer colorway of the Air Jordan 11 Low is complemented by a White midsole and classic gum outsole.

There is no exact release date for this colorway of the Air Jordan 11 yet but make sure you bookmark our Air Jordan 11 Navy/Gum launch page to stay updated with the latest images and release information.

Author’s Take

The more I see this Air Jordan 11 the more I like it. The combination of the Navy upper and the gum outsole is just a clean look that you don’t see very often. They remind me of the Air Jordan 4 Dunk From Above.

With Drake sporting a pair back in 2014, the silhouette was officially revealed to the public this past February 2016, as this luxurious rendition of the Air Jordan 12 will finally make its arrival to retailers later this summer.

Given that this year celebrates the iconic silhouette, as we’ve already seen the new Wings, revived French Blue, forthcoming remastered Flu Game iteration amongst many others, this particular variation is essentially an extravagant build with stingray leather utilized across the forefoot, alongside premium tumbled leather dominating the entire upper.

To finish off its lavish detailing, gold accents are applied on the eyelets, side panels and outsole with co-branding.

If you still weren’t impressed with all the OG Air Jordan re-issues coming your way this year, feast your eyes on the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Banned” aka “Bred”. This devilish black/red colorway was rumored for a Fall release, and this first look at an early pair may seal the deal that the Bred 1s will indeed come back despite hitting stores in December of 2013. Certainly an essential an any Air Jordan rotation, the original high-tops bearing the Jumpman Wings logo will be a must-have if it drops later this year. Based on this image, this upcoming release doesn’t feature any “X” detailing as seen on the actual “Banned” release from 2011. Grab a first look at this early pair below and stay tuned for updates. Note: the above photo is of the 2013 release.

Midnight Navy lands on the tongue, ankle, inner liner, outsole and the Wings logo by the ankle. Capping things off is University Blue detailing on the Nike Air branding on the tongue and a White midsole.

Scheduled to release on April 30th for $160, is this Air Jordan 1 a cop or pass for you? Make sure to head over to our Air Jordan 1 High OG David Letterman launch page for the latest images, videos and release updates.

When I first saw pictures of this Air Jordan 1 I didn?t like it at all. Now that I see better pictures it?s actually not that bad at all. The only thing I don?t like is the University Blue hits on the tongue.
