Sneaker Fiend Saturday: Jordan Edition

It's SNKRFND SATURDAY if you didn't know. Here some future releases for this week.

Air Jordan Accolades

Way back in early January, images of the Air Jordan Accolades leaked (and like everything Jordan Brand, word quickly turned to wildfire as fan interest grew). Earlier this month, the Jumpman unleashed the first of the Jordan Accolades to retail in the form of the aptly titled Premier (Black / Varsity Red). Jordan Brand have since announced the White / Black-Cement Grey (featuring their famous elephant print) and the Black / Varsity Red-White editions. Both have received mix reviews from various outlets in the blog-o-sphere but that chatter has ceased now that the triangle has become a square with the inclusion of the White / Gold-Red version - which recently landed online. This mid-cut Accolade, complete with white leather and two varsity red Jumpman logos, features gold laser-etchings (based on Michael Jordan’s greatest hardwood accomplishments) which have been lifted from the Air Jordan XX. Combined with the Air Jordan X’s midsole / outsole, the Accolade is now the hybrid that we hoped it would be – and you’ve gotta love the intentional 2010 reference.

Air Jordan 12 Rising Sun

The Air Jordan 12 is set for a comeback a month from now and this time it’s going to be an all OG affair. This particular colourway brings out the rising red Japanese sun that inspired the upper paneling. His Airness wore his 12s on the way to his fifth NBA championship. You can wear yours come December 19th.

Jordan VI Doernbecher

Designed by twelve-year-old-patient Jordan Dark, sales of the shoe will help raise much needed funds for the center. Jordan's design is inspired by the colours of his home team, the Kennedy Trojans, and features the Chicago Bull's famous “What time is it?… Game time!” pre-match cry on the inner tongue. For the full story on Jordan and the inspiration behind his shoe check out this interview. Look out for these in selected outlets come November.
