Air Jordan XX9 “Oreo”

The Air Jordan XX9 makes its way back to stores next weekend with the release of the “Oreo” colorway Saturday, October 25th, 2014. Most notably seen on the feet of Brooklyn Nets Joe Johnson during NBA pre-season play, the monochromatic black and white style takes elephant print to new heights by way of the latest performance technology and Tinker Hatfield design cues. Following its predecessor in black and gym red tones, the “Oreo” is much bolder in a sense that it features a more sartorially pleasing aesthetic, where wears will likely be just as high off court as they are on it. That said, are those early stances that leveraged the enlarged Jumpman XX9′s over the elephant printed pairs beginning to fade? Give us your thoughts and also let us know if you plan to pick up the “Oreos” on October 25th.

To finish, a black midsole rest slightly atop an icy translucent outer. Of course among the last colorways of Air Jordan’s designed by the legendary Tinker Hatfield, will you be picking up a pair this weekend? Let us know after the break.

Air Jordan 1 Low – Cool Grey/Fusion Pink/Space Blue

The Air Jordan 1 Low is going to be a featured player in Jordan Brand’s 2015 retro slate, as the silhouette will return to nostalgic glory with a number of OG looks that feature that coveted Nike Air branding on the tongue. In the meantime, the shoe seems content playing around with new colorways. The latest dons a Cool Grey and Black base while Fusion Pink and Space Blue come together in accents in a rather subdued look for such vibrant hues. The last time we saw each come together is on the Riverwalk pairs referencing the 1996 San Antonio All-Star Game.

Air Jordan 6 GS “Seahawks”

We’re getting a brand new Air Jordan 6 this weekend, but this time around the pair will be exclusive to the kids and ladies. In a year that’s seen plenty of old school renditions of the shoe that Mike wore during his first championship run, we’ve gotten an equal amount of eye-catching aesthetics new to the silhouette, and this “Seahawks” variety has etched out its place among them. The pair skips over the usual vibrant base seen on GS exclusives for a clean white, while Deep Royal and Fierce Green tie into the unofficial Seattle theme.

Air Jordan XX9 “Riverwalk”

We’re only a few days away from another Air Jordan XX9 release, as this “Riverwalk” pair will be arriving at retailers this Saturday, October 11th. When looking at the upcoming Jordan release slate, there are a number of pairs referencing the 1996 NBA All-Star Game in San Antonio, an event that saw Mike break out the Air Jordan 11 “Columbia” on court. So it shouldn’t come as a surprise or a coincidence that alongside that patent leather gem’s Holiday 2014 release date, Jordan Brand is doling out a number of other San Antonio themed sneakers. The Air Jordan 29 features that gradient digital elephant print as fusion pink and tropical teal work together to match the Spurs colorful home court back in the 90s. Be sure to stay tuned for more updates in our release dates page and catch a better glimpse of this upcoming Air Jordan XX9 after the break.

Air Jordan 1 Mid “Melo”

Air Jordan 1 Mid “Melo”, a sneaker whose existence was first hinted at over the weekend. The pair stays away from a straightforward New York Knicks colorway, and instead features a black and burnt gold mixture on the upper, along with a “Melo” tongue tag. Word has it that this isn’t the only pair of this sort out there – Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, and Russell Westbrook all have their own on the way too.

Air Jordan 13 GS “Reflective”

There have been certain Air Jordan 13 releases over the years that have earned some complaints due to their lack of reflective materials embedded in the upper’s dimpled panel. It’s safe to say that the upcoming Air Jordan 13 “Reflective” won’t have to worry about that, as the entirety of that panel, as well as the toebox, has the 3M look going on. They’ll of course be available in GS sizes when they show up on October 4th, and we’ve got a preview of that smaller build for you right here.
