The Air Jordan 1 Hi Nouveau definitely has a type this spring: solid-leather midfoot and heel; contrast seamless toe and collar; further-contrasting (often iridescent) die-cut Swoosh.You can see it on the Dunk From Above and BHM editions in a matter of weeks, or dispense with the waiting; the Air Jordan 1 Hi Nouveau Militia Green, an archetype of that design style, is now available.Yesterday we broke the news that the Jordan Sky High, that obscure, occasionally forgotten model from the ’80s, has returned to shelves once again following its 2010 revival. Today, get your first look at the second (or possibly Nike Air Huarache Damen third) colorway in the retro run — the Jordan Sky High Sail.The vintage silhouette dons off-white over the canvas upper, a perfect shade to embody the Sky High’s ’80s lineage, with pops of red and grey delivering a subtle nod to Jordan Brand tradition.Carmelo Anthony’s twelfth signature shoe is set to deliver its best colorway yet. And in a matter of hours, really. The Jordan Melo M12 Wolf Grey releases tomorrow, January 6, at Jordan accounts nationwide. The clean, contrast-heavy look starts medium grey over the mesh upper, before pale orange starkly offsets on the leather heel and stabilizing heel-counter, even spreading down through the midsole. There haven’t been many M12s yet, but this has to be at the top of the rankings.With Nike and Jordan’s Black History Month collection set to debut later this month, we’re finally Nike Air Max 90 Femme starting to get some good looks at the shoes involved, piece by piece. Today, say hello to the Air Jordan 1 Nouveau Nike Air Max 90 Heren BHM.One of a couple of Air Jordan 1s dropping as part of the collection — Exhibit B — The Air Jordan 1 Nouveau BHM opts for a simpler look than some of its contemporaries. The now-familiar cool multicolored tribal pattern is present, sure, but it’s largely confined to accent work, appearing on the Swoosh, the tongue, the inlaid collar.Instead, the predominantly black leather construction takes a starring role, appearing just about everywhere else. The result is perfect, as the colorful prints are still plenty prominent, but the focus on premium understated leather imparts a more luxe, almost designer feel.In 2016, a number of Jordan Brand releases will celebrate Spike Lee’s classic film Do the Right Thing with subtly Adidas ZX Flux Femme themed colorways. And the motif gets its debut this weekend, with the debut of the Air Jordan 2 Radio Raheem.Launching Nike Air Max Zero Femme January 9, the shoe rocks a black leather-and-nubuck upper contrasted by blue piping and multicolored eyelets, a palette that draws from the famous T-shirt of the aptly named Radio Raheem, one of the movie’s prominent characters.Jordan Brand just unearthed a rather arcane old model. They had to dig deep in the archives for this one.Last seen on shelves five or so years ago, the Air Jordan Sky High OG is making its grand return in a clean, classically-styled (although brand new) grey canvas colorway accented with touches of black. Sort of in the same vein as the AJKO — in terms of a vintage silhouette executed in canvas construction, anyway — the Air Jordan Sky High OG also debuted back in the ’80s, but virtually Adidas Superstar Femme Fleur disappeared until resurfacing back in 2010.Well, we’re still over three weeks from the Air Jordan 5 Low Alternate Nike Air Max 1 Mens 90 release date, but that relative distance just makes today’s official photos all the sweeter.You likely know the deal by now. Black suede blends with red accents and a silver tongue on the lowtop AJ5 upper, a throwback palette inspired by how an old Michael Jordan PE could have looked. Back again for the first time, as it were.Tar Heel PE? Nope. The Air Jordan XX9 Low University Blue, better known as the Air Jordan XX9 Low UNC, is now available at retailers like Nike.com.The second colorway of the lowtop XX9 boasts the same lined elephant print over its knit upper that was featured on the first colorway, but executes it in a black-to-pale blue gradient effect. Cool and colorful, the shoe perfectly embodies the Air Adidas Superstar Femme Rose Jordan XX9 — cutting edge technology, aesthetic nod to the past.Shades of iconic Jordan design in the brand’s Nike Air Max 2015 Donne latest lifestyle look, the Jordan Executive.Seen here in its lowtop iteration — there’s a mid as well — the Jordan Executive wears a relatively simple design, as a throwback leather upper is set atop a sleek rubber sole.But the devil’s in the details and, in this case, the details are classic through and through. That sole is borrowed straight off the Air Jordan 1, a shoe that’s somewhat present in the upper’s paneling, while the strap-style eyelets vaguely align with upper with the Air Jordan 10 or 11.Jordan Brand gets 2016 off to a bang this weekend — besides last weekend’s releases, naturally — launching the first of several shoes inspired by Spike Lee’s classic film Do the Right Thing.Rather than incorporating an overarching movie theme, the Air Jordan 2 Radio Raheem instead draws particularly from Radio Raheem, one of the Nike Air Max 1 Dam film’s important if doomed characters. Tumbled leather pairs with tonal nubuck on the largely blacked-out upper, with blue piping and colorful eyelets that reflect the colors in Raheem’s omnipresent “Bed-Stuy Do or Die” T-shirt.
