Air Jordan 1 Mid “Inspired By The Greatest” Official Images And Release Date Revealed

Overall, the Air Jordan 1 Mid is one of the best sneakers on the market. Although it doesn’t have the same allure as the Air Jordan 1 High OG, it is still a great option. It is more cost-effective and there is a wider variety of colorways on the market. Not to mention, since the hype for these is significantly lower, sneakerheads are actually able to get their hands on a pair. This is a crucial point that has made the Jordan 1 Mid an impeccable option. As the years go by, it becomes that much more of a phenomenal alternative to its bigger brother.

That said, over the years, we have seen a plethora of amazing colorways. Furthermore, a lot of these color schemes have been made in grade school sizes. After all, the kids have to be laced up as well. Jumpman has done a great job of jumping around demographics, and this is a great example of that. Well, below, you can find another new Air Jordan 1 Mid. This time, it is simply called “Inspired By The Greatest” and there are a ton of great colors to behold here.

7 Modern Takes On Classic Air Jordans

Overall, there are quite a few amazing Air Jordans out on the market right now. However, fans always seem to go for the classics. This makes a whole lot of sense considering how great these classics are. In recent years, Jordan Brand has been making some new versions of these iconic shoes, and they have all been received well by sneakerheads. Today, we are looking at seven reimagined classics that continue to leave us amazed.

Air Jordan 3 “White Cement Reimagined”

Firstly, we have the Air Jordan 3 in the “White Cement Reimagined” colorway. Overall, this shoe takes an iconic color scheme and gives it some updated materials. Furthermore, we get a bit of an aged look on the midsole that brings it all together. This is an offering that a lot of people absolutely adore and that won’t change anytime soon. Ultimately, it is a great addition to the “Reimagined” line.

AJ1 High OG “Lost & Found”

Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG "Chicago Lost and Found"

Secondly, we have the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Lost & Found.” Of course, this is a very obvious reference to the OG “Chicago” color scheme. However, the big difference here is the cracking on the back heel, as well as the aged midsole. Essentially, the shoe is made to look like it had been sitting in an attic for years. It is a concept that pays off and they prove to be a must-have for any collector.

Air Jordan 4 “Red Cement”

Subsequently, the “Red Cement” model is a worthy addition to the Air Joran 4 library. It is a new take on the “White Cement” colorway that is so popular with this silhouette. However, what we get here is a shoe that swaps out cement grey for red. If you love Chicago colors, then these will definitely be the kicks for you.

AJ3 “Wizards”

Next up, we have this Air Jordan 3 “Wizards” model. The special part about this shoe is that it was originally a PE for Michael Jordan. However, fans eventually got these on the market, 20 years later. It turned out to be a huge win for fans, and we still love these, to this day. Not to mention, those blue and gold Wizards colors bring forth a ton of early to mid-2000s nostalgia for us 90s kids.

Air Jordan 1 High OG “Patent Bred”

Patent leather is extremely flashy and it looks great on sneakers. That is absolutely true of the Air Jordan 1 High OG “Patent Bred.” This take on the OG “Bred” colorway feels lavish, and fans have loved wearing these on-feet. Just watch out for those pesky creases though. With patent leather, they can prove to be quite gnarly.

AJ12 “Royalty Taxi”

The “Royalty Taxi” model is also an amazing take on a classic Air Jordan 12. From the white and black base to the gold highlights, what more can you say? It would prove to be a solid addition to any collection. The Jordan 12 has gained a considerable amount of popularity as of late, and these are a contributor to that.

Air Jordan 4 Golf “White Cement”

Lastly, we have a golf shoe. Michael Jordan loves to play golf, so it only makes sense to turn his iconic shoes into golfing sneakers. The “White Cement” Air Jordan 4 was a great sneaker to do this with. It is nice and clean for the course, and it is already the same colors as your standard old-school golf shoe. If you like to play a round of golf once in a while, definitely be sure to grab these.

Utah Jazz Stop Selling Bizarre Jumpman Shirt After Fan Backlash

The Utah Jazz has confirmed that they will no longer sell a shirt that appeared to show Michael Jordan dunking over the team name. The shirt was part of a minimalistic overhaul of the team identity last season driven by Nike and the Jordan Brand. However, the shirt riled up Jazz fans after its discovery given the painful memories of the two 90s Finals the Malone-Stockton Jazz lost to Jordan’s Bulls. The design can be found leaguewide, with each team having their own variation of the shirt. However, it’s one that unfortunately will get very little love amongst the Jazz faithful.

The Jazz lost back-to-back Finals against Jordan’s Bulls in 1997 and 1998. Jordan averaged 32.3 points per game in 1997 (4-2 Bulls) and 33.5 points per game in 1998 (4-2 Bulls). The two-season stretch also included perhaps Jordan’s most iconic game – Game 5 of the ’97 Finals, aka “The Flu Game”. Jordan put up 38 points despite being visibly ill. In subsequent years, Jordan has floated the idea that he was poisoned by a Jazz-supporting pizzeria the night before. Regardless, it’s a particularly painful stretch of Jazz history that is not best served by a minimalist t-shirt celebrating Jordan.

Jazz Quietly Confident About 2023-24

The upcoming NBA season is a chance for the Jazz to bounce back after a down year in 2022/23. The Jazz finished 37-45 amid something of a roster rebuild, having traded away Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell. This is now Lauri Markkanen’s team. The Jazz have three rookies on the roster after making three picks in the first round of this year’s NBA draft. If everyone takes the developmental steps they need to, the Jazz could be a Play-In team this year.

However, they have the misfortune of being in the Western Conference. That means regular meetings with the defending champion Nuggets and the conference superteams in the Suns and Warriors. Furthermore, teams like the Lakers and Grizzlies will be eager to keep up their forward momentum. Despite fans, have are quietly confident that the team is finally in a place to truly move on from the losses of Gobert and Mitchell.

Today, we will be taking a look at five colorways of this shoe that you are going to need this Fall.

Air Jordan 2 Low “UNC”

Air Jordan 2 Low "UNC"

Firstly, we have the Air Jordan 2 Low in the “UNC” color scheme. At this point, the North Carolina colors are well-known within the Jordan Brand ranks. On this sneaker, we get a white leather upper with some powder blue sprinkled throughout. This comes together extremely well, and you can’t help but love how this looks on the low-top silhouette.

AJ2 Low “Responsibility”

With this “Responsibility” color scheme, we get a colorway that is much more reserved. As you can see, the shoe is mostly black with an aged midsole for some contrast. Furthermore, there is some elephant print around the cuff of the shoe, which will give you some Jordan 3 vibes. It makes for a great sneaker that a lot of people are going to adore.

Air Jordan 2 Low “Cherrywood”

Air Jordan 2 Low "Cherrywood"

Next up, we have this gorgeous “Cherrywood” model. Overall, the concept here is fairly simple. There is a white leather upper that makes up the majority of the shoe, all while beige nubuck is found on the sides. To top it all off, a burgundy hue is placed on the back heel and cuff to give you that cherry aesthetic. The fall vibes are very strong with these. (Image via Stadium Goods)

AJ2 Low “Sail”

Air Jordan 2 Low Craft "Sail"

The next colorway on our list is part of the new Craft line. With this shoe, we get a white leather upper, some grey on the sides, and then orange on the back heel and the cuff. Overall, this orange coloring is going to be perfect for Halloween. If these had a black upper, they would be the ultimate Halloween shoe. Regardless, they are still great for the Fall season.

Air Jordan 2 Low “Two 18”

Lastly, we have the Air Jordan 2 Low “Two 18.” This sneaker breaks away from the trend of white leather uppers. Instead, this shoe is constructed with brown suede, that eventually transitions into a darker brown on the sides. Moreover, we get a little bit of blue and red that pokes through. Ultimately, these are a sure-thing in the colder weather. (Image via Stadium Goods)

Air Jordan 1 KO “True Blue/Topaz Gold” Revealed

For those who may not know, the Air Jordan 1 KO is one of the more interesting releases to come from Jordan Brand. Overall, this is actually a pretty old model. It was created years ago as a means to poke fun at the sheer amount of knockoffs the Air Jordan 1 had. Although these kicks were authentic, there were enough changes to make you think this shoe was unofficial. The shoe has definitely caught on over the years, and it has led to some very cool colorways. Ultimately, it is one of those models you cannot go wrong with.

In recent years, Jumpman has brought this silhouette back. We have seen a ton of new offerings, and it seems like they have no plans to slow down.

Firstly, the upper here is mainly comprised of white leather. Furthermore, we get a little rocket sign near the back heel. Additionally, the inclusion of “Rocket Power” written out in stars is actually very cool. This is a detail that went over some heads, but it looks great here.

Air Jordan 17 Low “University Blue” To Get New Retro

When it comes to underrated Jordan Brand models, there is certainly a case to be made about the Air Jordan 17 Low. In fact, there are a lot of underrated Jumpman models out there.
