First teased via mock-up in late October, the Air Jordan 3 “Cardinal” has recently appeared through unauthorized, in-hand images. Just under two years removed from what’ll likely be a highly-visible 35th anniversary, the pair has taken the last year to experiment with handfuls of non-original colorways, among them, A Ma Maniére‘s leading “Sneaker of the Year” candidate. The “Cardinal Red”-accented retro was confirmed as arriving in February 2022 during the Air Jordan Spring 2022 Preview that took place on Friday, December 10th, via the Nike SNKRS app. While far from the collection’s most-anticipated release, the upcoming take on Tinker Hatfield’s first-ever design for Michael Jordan further blends heritage with modern-day flair by following the silhouette’s inaugural color-blocking. The titular shade of ruby arrives at the midsole, collar and tongue lining, eyelets and Jumpman logos on the heel. Elephant print reprises its role in the “Cement Grey” it helped make synonymous with the Ai

Set to celebrate its 30th anniversary in 2022, the Air Jordan 7 is expected to release in a handful of original colorways throughout the year. In addition to some beloved styles, the 1992-design is also expected to launch in modern-day makeovers like a newly-surfaced “Sapphire” one. At a glance, the upcoming sneakers indulge in a 1990s-Nike ACG aesthetic, as a sand-like base sets the stage for vibrant purple and pink hits on the tongue, heel and inner-bootie. Mid-foot and collar panels deviate from standard construction, favoring a semi-translucent mesh build that not only helps accentuate the aforementioned hues, but also propels the Air Jordan line into the next 37-years. Underfoot, the tried-and-proven sole unit opts for a muted greyscale arrangement, though geometric shapes across the outsole revel in some of the bold tones found up-top. An official Nike SNKRS release date hasn’t been confirmed by the brand, but the pair is set to arrive in March. In any case, hang tight as you wai

Nike‘s holiday range is heating up with a velvety rendition of the women’s Air Jordan OG silhouette, which draws on the Jordan 13 featuring dimpled details that call out to Michael Jordan‘s love for golf. Arriving in “Black/Metallic Gold,” the sneaker boasts a festive black and gold color scheme, with the latter appearing as speckles beneath the mesh overlays. Known fondly as the “Sheryl Swoopes,” this footwear style was the first women’s basketball shoe created by Nike, coinciding with the dawn of the WNBA. While Swoopes certainly popularized the OG, she received her signature shoe, the Air Swoopes, in 1995. The Air Jordan OG “Black/Metallic Gold” for women retails for $140 USD and will be available on November 30 via Nike’s website.

Before the eye-catching “Atmosphere” tone lands on a kids-exclusive Air Jordan 6 Low in January 2022, the pink tone will appear on the Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG “Bubble Gum” tomorrow, December 22nd. Stylized in a similar fashion as the original “Black Toe” colorway of Michael Jordan’s first signature sneaker, the pair boasts a rose hue that hasn’t historically appeared across many retreat the toe box, ankle panels and lower heel overlays. And while the “Atmosphere” tone would be enough for the Air Jordan 1‘s upcoming release to garner a “Bubble Gum” moniker, it plays a supporting role to the gum-like graphic printed on the outsoles. Hits of “Obsidian” throughout the upper help deliver further modern-flair, while creating a women’s-exclusive offering not overly-reliant on colors and makeovers traditionally associated with the feminine. Enjoy detailed images of the pair here below, as you wait to try your luck via Nike SNKRS tomorrow, December 22nd. Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Bubb

  Borrowing elements from the iconic “Black Cat” Air Jordan 4 and Olivia Kim’s pony hair-clad “No Cover,” the Air Jordan 4 Golf “Black Cat” brings a Jumpman classic to the green. These premium golf shoes come with pony hair paneling, tonal branding and mesh underlays. Glossy hardware adds interest throughout, while the heel counter sees tonal paint splatter details. The all-black colorway extends to the midsole and treading where seven removable spikes provide superior traction.  The Air Jordan 4 Golf “Black Cat” releases December 4 via Nike and at select retailers with a $220 USD price tag. The “Black Cat” joins other highly anticipated holiday releases including the Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey,” Jordan 1 “Bred Patent” and the animal print Air Jordan 11 “Black and White.”
