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.

Air Jordan 5 “White/Metallic”

Could the Air Jordan 5 “White/Metallic” be included in the remastered Air Jordan retros that are coming in 2015? At this point, rumors are flying about the possible return of that colorway. It’s certainly within the realm of possibility seeing as how other Retro+ creations like the “Oreo” Jordan 4 and the “French Blue” Jordan 7 have been confirmed for next year. Tell us in the comments if you’d be happy to see this Air Jordan 5 return and stick with us for updates. Note that the pair pictured here is the original Air Jordan 5 “White/Metallic” from 2000.

Air Jordan 1 Mid “Tropical Teal”

How much more successful would the Air Jordan 1 Mid be if it featured that premium Nike Air branding on the tongue that we all covet from the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG? One thing’s for sure, the mid-top variation of the Air Jordan 1 is the most experimental in terms of colorways when compared to other takedowns of Mike’s first signature. Today that tradition continues as a Tropical Teal clashes with an Infrared 23 accent throughout. Usually when cotton candy-esque colors arrive on a Jumpman it means that the release will be delegated to strictly the kids and ladies.

Air Jordan 3 “Bape x Ice Cream”

The lab of JBF Customs is again the source of the sort of sneaker team up that you would never see at retail. This time around he’s lifted the aesthetics of couple streetwear juggernauts, that would be Bape and Ice Cream, for this Air Jordan 3 creation. The sneakers feature a particularly impressive replacement of the Nike Air logo on the back side with a cleverly fitted Bathing Ape logo. See the rest of the details on this pair by checking in below the break and then get in touch with JBF Customs for inquiries.

Air Jordan 4Lab1 Enters the Elements Series

It looks like the next sneaker to show up from the Elements Series of Air Jordans that has certain silhouettes borrowing heavily from others is the Air Jordan 4Lab1. As you can see, the model pulls the side netting from the Air Jordan 4 and dips the Air Jordan 1 with that detail. Kind of curious here is the use of icy soles on bottom, but we’re assuming those were just tossed in for good measure and not meant as a real reference to the Jordan 4.

27 Air Jordans “Chicago” Colorway

Spotted at the Nike World Basketball Festival in Chicago last month with this jaw-dropping display of Air Jordans from 1 through 2012. It makes complete sense that Jordan Brand selected this base of White and Red, because Chicago is, after all, Michael Jordan’s “home” city. You may have seen similar iterations of the Air Jordan Legacy in this pristine white/red composition, and if you happened to stop by the Nike WBF in the Chi, you probably caught these in the Jordan Brand experience space. Get a look at all 27 Air Jordans below and let us know which pair looks best in this “Home” look!

Air Jordan Future – Burgundy – Metallic Gold

There have been a few Jordan Future pairs popping up that weren’t involved with that 16-colorway image earlier in the summer that spoiled a good lot of what’s coming for the model. This time around the Jordan 11 tribute again goes the mesh route and features a burgundy coloring for the upper (We assume they’ve got the reflective touch too but it’s a bit difficult to spot here).

Air Jordan 1 ’99 “Last Shot”

We have a feeling that a lot more folks will appreciate the Air Jordan 14 after this year, as the model is currently making quite a bit of noise with that upcoming “Ferrari” pair. Whether or not that appreciation will trickle down to hybrid styles like the Air Jordan 1 ’99 here remains to be seen, but if any pair could pique interests than the OG “Last Shot” one here would be it.
