Luxury Details On The Air Jordan 12 Wings

Air Jordan 12 Air Jordan 12 1 Air Jordan 12 3 Air Jordan 12 2

Compared to the popular “Playoffs” colorway, this forthcoming rendition of the Air Jordan 12 is treated with a midas touch instead for a more luxurious appeal.

Flaunting a simple two tone color scheme of black and white, the upper is comprised of premium leather, with a smoother build along the eye stays and rear portion, followed by a textured detail across the forefoot. Lavish detailing are evidenced by metallic gold accents gracing the top eyelets and miniature panels on the midsole, which also bears the defining theme.

This latest reveal of the pair showcases that the silhouette will be packaged in a special dust bag as well and detailed with a gold Jumpman logo. Suggested to be extremely limited to only 12,000 pairs, the sneaker is reportedly arriving sometime during April.

Stay tuned in to our official Air Jordan 12 Wings launch page for further updates.

Author’s Take

I’m just a fan of the model overall and the simplicity. The application of gold has been really well placed and I like the outcome. If the quantities are true, then this will obviously be sought after.

Releasing next week will be this brand new colorway of the Air Jordan 5 Low. Previously believed to be inspired by the New York Knicks, it turns out that this colorway of the Air Jordan is actually inspired by the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The date was March 28, 1990 and the Chicago Bulls were facing the Cleveland Cavaliers. This went on to be one of, if not Michael’s greatest game ever as far as stats go as he scored a career-high 69 points and also pulled down 18 rebounds. The shoe he was wearing for that game? The Air Jordan 5. This colorway of the Air Jordan 5 Low features a Deep Royal Blue nubuck upper with Midnight Navy detailing on the midsole and inner liner, and Atomic Orange and Team Orange on the shark teeth, Jumpman branding, the inside of the tongue and the lace lock.

You’ll be able to find this Air Jordan 5 Low at select retailers on March 28th as Jordan Brand will celebrate the 26th anniversary of Michael’s amazing game in Cleveland. Take a look at the official images above and pick up your pair next week for a retail price of $175. Also don’t forget to check out our Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks launch page for the latest images and updates.

Author’s Take

One of the better colorways of the Air Jordan 5 Low that will release this year. If these were made in the original mid-top cut people would like them a lot more.

Will You Be Picking Up The Air Jordan 5 Low Neymar

I think it’s safe to say at this point that 2016 is unofficially the year of the Air Jordan 5 Low. Whether they’re flying off shelves or not is a different story, but Jordan Brand has and will continue to release a handful of colorways of the low-top model.

One of those colorways that will probably not sit on shelves for too long is this upcoming collaboration with soccer star Neymar. The Air Jordan 5 Low Neymar comes with a cement print upper that features black speckling and is also 3m reflective. In addition to the flashy 3M upper we also see Infrared detailing on the outsole, the inside of the tongue, and the “10” and “23” branding on each of the ankles that represent Neymar and Michael Jordan’s numbers respectively. The rest of the shoe including the tongue, laces, inner liner, eyelets, midsole and side panel mesh netting are all done in black. Capping things off is an icy blue translucent outsole.

There is no exact release date for the Air Jordan 5 Low Neymar yet but they are expected to release some time in June for a retail price of $175. Stay tuned for more here at Kicks On Fire.

The only pretty cool thing about this colorway is the full 3M upper. Other than that I don?t expect this colorway to sell very well.

Another Look At The Air Jordan 5 OG 90 Black/Metallic Silver

Air Jordan 5 OG 90 1 Air Jordan 5 OG 90 2 Air Jordan 5 OG 90 3 Air Jordan 5 OG 90 4 Air Jordan 5 OG 90 5 Air Jordan 5 OG 90 6 Air Jordan 5 OG 90 7 Air Jordan 5 OG 90 8

The Air Jordan 4 OG 89 White Cement will not be the only Jordan Brand sneaker getting the OG treatment in 2016. Scheduled to release later this Summer will be OG Black/Metallic Silver colorway of the Air Jordan 5.

Covered in a Black nubuck all throughout the upper, this Air Jordan 5 sticks true to the original and also features a Black midsole with Metallic Silver detailing on the shark teeth. Additional Metallic Silver hits have also been added on the tongue which will most likely be 3M. The Jumpman on the tongue has been colored in Fire Red while the OG Nike Air branding on the heel is done in White.

Are you interested in picking up a pair? If you are then know that this Air Jordan 5 will release on July 23, 2016 for a retail price of $220. Make sure you visit our Air Jordan 5 OG 90 Black/Metallic Silver launch page for the latest updates.

I?ve always wanted a pair of Black/Metallic 5s, but if it means having to spend $220 plus tax I may just have to pass. *Sigh*

The Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks Drops In Less Than One Week

Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  1 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  2 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  3 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  4 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  5 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  6 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  7 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  8 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  9 Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks  10

Let’s tell it like it is, the Air Jordan 5 Low is not doing as well as Jordan Brand anticipated. Most of the colorways that have released end up getting a price cut withing a week of the release date. Even the Air Jordan 5 Low Fire Red  that released not too long ago did not do that well considering it was an OG colorway. Up next is the Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks. Does this colorway have what it takes the give the Air Jordan 5 Low some good recognition.

Dubbed the “Knicks” due to similarity in colors between the shoes and the professional NBA team, the shoe comes dressed in a Deep Royal Blue nubuck upper nicely contrasted by the hits of Orange placed on the inside of the tongue, Jumpman on the tongue, shark teeth on the midsole, lace lock and Jumpman on the heel. In addition, a white sole unit and reflective tongue gives the shoe more of a Knicks feel. Lastly, clear netting on the side panels and tongue and the icy translucent outsole complete the look of the shoe. What do you think of the shoe? Priced at $175 and releasing on March 28th (Monday), does this shoe have what it takes to be considered a success?

Need more info on the shoe, be sure to visit our Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks launch page for additional images and details regarding this upcoming release.

Author’s Take

The more I see it, the less I dislike it. That doesn’t mean I like the model, it just means that I can tolerate this colorway.  All in all I rate it a 6 out of 10.

So the ladies are pretty much getting the same release as last year but just making it a low-top instead of a mid? Not sure how they feel about it but I feel that these will sit on shelves for a long time.

Jordan Brand With Another Monday Release With The Air Jordan 5 Low Knicks


Has an opposing fanbase ever loved a foe as much as New York Knicks fans love Michael Jordan? They might admit to booing MJ and egging him on toward a double-nickel performance in his first game back to MSG post-retirement, but Knickerbocker fans have as profound a respect for His Airness as any NBA fanbase, perhaps because MJ enjoyed beating up on them so much. Jordan Brand is returning late this March with yet another Knicks reference atop the now frequently featured Air Jordan 5 Low. The bold Deep Royal Blue, Team Orange, and Midnight Navy combination keeps a bit of traditionalism in the form of translucent mesh side panels and an icy blue outsole. The Jordan 5 Low “Knicks” is slated to release on March 28th for $175. Check out a better view below and know that you can grab these Knicks Jordan 5 Lows from spots like Politics and right now on eBay.

Black Cat Air Jordan 6 Releasing On New Years Eve

Marcus Jordan hinted last week that this upcoming Holiday 2016 was going to be insane. We already knew about True Blue 3s, Cyber Monday 3s, and Space Jam 11s, but what else could there possibly be to top those three hits? According to Balt Sneaker Show, who disclosed the information in an interview with The Shoe Game, Jordan Brand will release a “Black Cat” Air Jordan 6 on New Years Eve. There are no photos for reference, but this is indication that an all-black Air Jordan 6 is in the works. The only other outright “Black Cat” releases are the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 4, so there’s a chance that the upcoming Air Jordan 6 “Black Cat” will feature some minor details like its predecessors. Stay tuned for more updates.

This Air Jordan 4 PRM Snakeskin Gets A High-End Upgrade (Video)

The Air Jordan 4 PRM Snakeskin is not like any Air Jordan 4 you have seen before. From the premium snakeskin upper to the tumbled leather overlays and tongue, it’s a unique look that will have sneakerheads talking. But what will also have everybody buzzing is the rumored low production run of 5,000 pairs and the $400 price tag. While sneakerheads might be happy to see such a bold and dramatically new interpretation of the Air Jordan 4, will it be worth the hassle and jump in price once they drop later this summer as expected?

The Most Expensive Air Jordan 4 At Retail Is Releasing This Weekend

The Air Jordan shoe that many of us mistakenly labeled a “Pinnacle” release is headed to stores this Saturday with a whopping $400 price-tag. Featuring a premium mix of materials on the upper such as a smooth tumbled leather and pony hair, this Air Jordan 4 Retro has been the subject of an ongoing debate regarding the rising prices of Jordan Retro shoes. Perhaps this release is why the French Blue 12s got postponed, because to justify $600 on two pairs of sneakers in one Saturday morning is tough to do. If you’re looking to cop, Oneness be one of the few retailers stocking them this coming weekend.

Air Jordan 9 Low 2 Air Jordan 9 Low Air Jordan 9 Low 1 Air Jordan 9 Low 3 Air Jordan 9 Low 4 Air Jordan 9 Low 5

While the Air Jordan 9 Low Black/White is scheduled to drop next month, this Pantone variation of the silhouette will follow a couple of months after.

Essentially taking its colorway from the standardized color reproduction system, the defining tone consists of University Blue, which prominently graces the smooth leather upper, textured leather mudguard, tongue, laces and heel tab. Complementing accents of black are applied on the inner lining, tongue label and rear, while it all rests atop a clean white rubber sole unit.

Rounded out with additional branding on the rear with an embroidered “23,” you can purchase this pair at select JB and Nike accounts on June 11 for a retail price tag of $170.

Stay tuned in to our official Air Jordan 9 Low Pantone launch page for even more details.

I don’t hate how it looks in low-cut form, but I’d really prefer the model in its original form. The colorway isn’t for me, but it’s pretty appealing. This should get some attention.
