Solefly x Air Jordan 3

Hello classs, today I will be talking about the Solefly x Air Jordan 3. Solefly is a sneaker and streetwear store in Miami, Florida. This shoe was a collab between the owner of Solefly and Jordan. This shoe is white, a kind of peach color on the heel tab and sole, and  a dark green midsole. The thing that makes this shoe special is when you pull the top of the heel tab back, you'll see Miami's area code "305" and you'll also see the state florida. This shoe was not a general release, this shoe had an unveiling on July 19th, 2014. Only a very limited amount of people have this shoe. The shoe went for sale on eBay and its going for $6,705.00. It's a size 12, so if you wear a size 12 you're in luck!

Air Jordan 12 OVO White

Hello class, today I will be talking about the Air Jordan 12 OVO White. This shoe is a collab with Drake. A black version of this shoe was released last year. This shoe is all white tumbled leather, and a sort of polka dot design along the mid of the shoe to the toe box. This shoe has some gold around the shoe lace loops, which give it a nice look. On the sole of the shoe we see Drakes brand OVO, with a nice designed carbon fiber plate. This shoe has no official price, and is set to release July 30, 2016, but it can be changed.

Air Jordan 8 Championship Pack

Hello class, today I will be talking about a very cool Air Jordan Pack releasing in June 2016. The Air Jordan 8 Championship Pack includes two Air Jordan 8 shoes to commemorate Jordans six rings he won with the Bulls. This shoe model was worn when he won a championship. These two shoes come in a unique colorway. One shoe is all black but in the midsole there is a confetti design to show the celebration that happens when you win a championship. The second shoe is an all white shoe with the midsole being gold, and it features jordans finger prints. These shoes will run $250 each! Crazy price, but the shoe has a great meaning behind it.

The shoe is made up of a black patant leather for the upper, white foam material for the mid-sole, and white "icy bottoms" for the soles. Also can't forget about the blue jumpman on the side of the heel.

Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate

Hello class, today I'll be speaking about the Air Jordan 7 Tinker Alternate. There is a similar shoe to this one called the Air Jordan 7 "Olympic", but the great designer Tinker Hatfield put his own twist on this shoe.  This shoe is actually inspired by the Summer Olympics this summer. This shoe features a red, white and blue colorway, the material is made out of leather. The shoe is going to be $190.00 and is releasing August 16, 2016. I like the shoe, but I probably won't get them.

Air Jordan True Blue 3

Hello class, today I will be talking about one of my favorite pairs of Jordans I own. The Air Jordan "True Blue" 3 is easily one of my favorite pairs. The shoe is made of a leather material and is mainly white, with a blue jumpman on the heel tab, a blue midsole and a blue sock liner. On the tongue it does have a red jump man, and also on the holes that the laces run through. This sneaker also have the famous "elephant print" around it. This is one shoe I plan on keeping crisp for a very long time.

Air Jordan Bred 4 2016

In 1999 the original Air Jordan 4 Breds came out with the Nike Logo on the heel tab. In 2012 they were released again but with the Jumpman logo on the heel tab and were priced at $160. There is a rumour that they will be releasing again this year but this time with the Nike tab again. They are rumoured to be priced at $220!.Theres that crazy price increase I talked about. I currently own the 2012 pair, and I don't think I'll be going for this pair.  It is all about the hype of the Nike tab that are going to make people buy the shoe.


2012 Version


2016 Version

Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian

Hello class, today I will be talking about a new Jordan 4 releasing later this fall. This Jordan is called the Air Jordan 4 Premium Obsidian, these are priced at $400.00! This Jordan is made out of premium leather, the Jordan brand is trying to come out with luxurious shoes for high end buyers. A similar shoe came out earlier this year in an all black colorway made out of leather. This could potentially sky rocket the jordan brand up or bring it down. We'll have to wait and see.

Air Jordan Kobe Pack

Hello everyone, today I'll be talking about a new Air Jordan pack that a lot of people, including myself, are excited about. The Air Jordan Kobe Pack consists of two Jordan shoes, the Jordan 3 and the Jordan 8, in the lakers color way. These two shoes are still a rumor, so there is no set release date, and no set price, but it is rumored to be around $500 for the pack. Of course this pack will not be easy to get, and I'm already assuming that the re sale price is going to go through the roof. I'll be on a look out for the pack, hopefully I'm lucky!

Air Jordan 1 "Chicago"

Let's look back at the shoe that started everything. The Air Jordan 1 "Chicago". This shoe was originally released in 1985 for $64.99, now these shoes are re sold around $1,000. These shoes represented the Bulls red, black and white colorway. Jordan was fined $5,000 per game everytime he wore them, but that didn't stop him. Every since then, Jordan and Nike have expanded their line up. Now there are Jordans numbered from 1-30.

They started at $225, but were being re sold from $300-$500. Each shoe had its number inside of the tongue. For example it would say 105/12,000. The most sought out pairs were number 1, 23 and 12,000. The 12,000th shoe was finally revealed as a size 10.5 and is up on ebay for $4,500.00! Crazy! But eventually someone will add it to their collection.

His has a sponsership with Nike, and has been part of the Nike family for 13 years. Nike decided to come out with a Kobe "Mamba" Pack, which includes 13 sneakers, slowly fading into a black colorway.
