Images of Billie Eilish’s Air Jordan 15 Collab Have Emerged

Billie Eilish and Jordan Brand have a new Air Jordan 15 collab on the way and the release could happen sooner than fans may think.

Today, images of Michael Jordan’s fifteenth signature shoe surfaced in a new colorway that was created with the help of the singer-songwriter. According to sneaker leak social media account @zSneakerheadz, the Billie Eilish x Air Jordan 15 will hit shelves before month’s end.

The Billie Eilish x Air Jordan 15 dons a tonal light brown colorway dressing the premium leather upper including on the protruding mesh tongue and matching shoelaces. Confirming that this iteration of the shoe was designed in partnership with Eilish is the co-branded footbed as well as Eilish’s signature Bloshsh logo on the ankle collar. Rounding out the look is a brown midsole. The Air Jordan 15 was designed by the industry veteran Tinker Hatfield in ’99 and is modeled after the fastest manned aircraft, the X-15 fighter jet.

According to @zSneakerheadz on Instagram, the Billie Eilish x Air Jordan 15 will be available exclusively in women’s sizing when it releases on Sept. 30 via SNKRS and at select retailers but the launch has not been confirmed by the brand.

Animal print is making a strong comeback over at Nike, thanks to the recently unveiled Solefly Air Jordan 1 Low and the newly released Air Jordan 11 "Animal Instinct."

Prints borrowed from various four-legged beasts have been commonplace within the Swoosh arsenal, most notably with the atmos Air Max 1 "Safari," Air Safari, and Dunk Low "Safari."

Recently, it's been a little quiet for these finishes, and those we have seen haven't hit the mark.

Netflix's documentary, The Last Dance, showcased the team, moments, and qualities that cemented the legacy of Michael Jordan – one such quality being his animal instincts, the instincts of a champion.

Taking inspiration from the winning quality and the Air Jordan 3 “Animal Instinct," this new Air Jordan 11 acts as an inverted take on the classic "Concord" colorway.

The "Concord" – the silhouette's most recognizable colorway – pairs a white base with a black patent leather overlay, whereas the "Animal Instinct" opts for a black base and animal print overlay. In place of patent leather is a "Sail" pony hair mudguard that pairs zebra and leopard prints together.

First Look: Air Jordan 1 Low FlyEase Bio Hack

Nike’s FlyEase technology lands on the Air Jordan 1 Low. Said to be making its debut in the next few months, here is a first look at the Air Jordan 1 Low FlyEase in the Bio Hack colorway.

This FlyEase iteration of the Air Jordan 1 Low features a medial zipper and velcro adjustments for a personalized fit and feel. Done in a color scheme that has many of us thinking about the Bio Hack 1s that dropped back in 2020, design details include a Baroque Brown, Black, Laser Orange, and Racer Pink upper placed atop a Mint Green midsole and Black outsole.

The Air Jordan 36 was officially unveiled by Jordan Brand today, but it already has an Olympic gold medal on its resume. Jayson Tatum wore the model, the latest from Michael Jordan’s multi-decade-spanning signature line, for this summer’s Tokyo Olympics—including during his 19-point and 7-rebound performance in USAB’s gold medal game.

For this latest entry of the game shoe, Tate Kuerbis, a 26-year Nike veteran, once again got the call to lead the team. The 36 marks the sixth-straight Air Jordan that Kuerbis has designed and his eighth overall. The shoe builds on a platform that began with the Air Jordan 34, and focuses on a theme of “light” this time around. The concept is multi-faceted, referring to both the shoe’s weight, and the fact that daylight can actually pass through it thanks to a new upper technology.

“The idea of taking back the courts, that’s been our big sole mission over the years,” Kuerbis says. “Looking back at it, the Air Jordan 34 was really the starting point of something new for the Jordan Brand and the Air Jordan.” That model introduced Eclipse Plate, a technology that built off the brand’s existing Flight Plate tech, aiming at maximizing the effectiveness of existing Zoom Air while also removing material from the shoe’s midsole.  “When we moved on to the 36 we felt like if there was one thing we could do, we could really focus on creating one of the lightest weight Air Jordans we’ve ever done before.”

This weight reduction was led by Jordan Brand materials designer Jacqueline Lefferts, who brought an upper created using jacquard leno-weave. Lefferts obtained a master’s in textile design from the Royal College of Art in London and has been with Jordan Brand for four years. She’s touched nearly every performance silhouette the brand has produced in that period.

“When you look at [the 34], it is so light looking and lightweight, so we were like, ‘How do we make material that’s lighter than that?’” she explains. “Tate and I decided in order to do that we really needed a new method of making material and a new innovation.”

Lefferts says that weaving is an obscure thing to be obsessed with in the first place, “but even within the weaving world, leno-weave is a type of weaving that most weavers don’t even know about. In my last year of university I became really fascinated with it and explored and experimented for about a year.”

She explains that it’s a specialized technique that utilizes yarns that are twisted around themselves. “What that’s doing is creating these really open structures. Because it’s twisting, we’re able to remove a lot of yarn, and any time you take away material you’re making something lighter. But even though you’re removing yarn, it’s just as strong—if not stronger.”

The result was a material that came in at 33% lighter than the upper material used on the 34. It’s also extremely translucent and allows for color shifts based on the viewing angle.

On the cushioning front, Eclipse Plate is back on the 36, but has undergone an evolution.

“Going along with the lightweight story, we really wanted to reduce the material of the Eclipse Plate as much as possible, so we really focused the plate just in the arch, and we actually separated it into two different pieces,” says Kuerbis.

Despite being almost two decades removed from playing, this refinement to the cushioning came from a direct insight from Michael Jordan.

“He always challenges us to be low to the ground,” Chad Troyer, senior footwear product line manager for Jordan Brand, says. “You know he loves his sports cars, so he gives us lots of references there. One of the ways we were able to do that is by using this Zoom Strobel. It reduces layers, it gets your foot closer to the ground and closer to cushioning. We have the most exposure to Zoom, by a millimeter, that we’ve ever had in a game shoe.” A second Zoom bag in the forefoot adds an additional level of responsiveness once engaged with the Eclipse plate.

Historically, one of Jordan Brand’s best attributes when it comes to performance is not getting too cute when tried and true methodologies already exist. That ethos is especially important with a shoe’s traction and was carried into the pattern found on the 36. “Chad told me not to F it up,” Kuerbis laughs. “With this one we really didn’t overthink it. We were really just focused on creating the best. We know that herringbone traction, with our athletes, is the most preferred, so we went that route.”

As with many recent game shoes, there are nods to models from Jordan’s playing days “We like to give a little homage to legacy shoes of the past, especially the Air Jordan 6,” says Kuerbis, of the latest. The wing on the heel and lace cover are both derived from MJ’s first championship model. Even the outsole gets a functional tribute to the shoe, with a weight-reducing cutout coming in the shape of the Air Jordan 6 tongue’s iconic finger holes. A six-link chain graphic on the heel provides one final signature touch in honor of the Bulls legend’s gold necklaces and six championship rings.

The public got its first glimpse of the AJ36 this past May when Dallas Wings star Satou Sabally shared the “First Light” edition on her social media. The colorway will drop on September 2 and aims to showcase the shoe’s material and theme with a story on the spectrum of light, leading to a bold look with color shifting on full display. First up though is a white and gold edition, dubbed “Glory,” releasing today. The model retails for $185, and player exclusives will follow for Guo Ailun in China on August 17, Kia Nurse in EMEA and Canada on August 17, Jayson Tatum in North America on August 21, Rui Hachimura in APLA on August 22, and Luka Doncic in APLA and EMEA on September 4. Finally, a white/black/red Bulls-style colorway called “Psychic Energy” is scheduled to drop on September 16.

First Look at Doernbecher Air Jordan 5 Low

Before the 2022 Doernbecher Freestyle collection is officially unveiled this month, it appears that one of the sneakers from the latest capsule has hit the net.

Newly leaked images from both @zSneakerheadz and @Erickjanlu0 show what could be the Air Jordan 5 Low Doernbecher designed by patient Michael Wilson. The sneaker features a multicolored upper, including a blue toe box and collar that’s covered with a macaroni graphic as a nod to Wilson’s affinity for mac and cheese. Additional details include an eye underneath the mesh netting at the midfoot that’s inspired by the designer’s favorite superpower, laser eyes.

First rumored in June 2021, the Air Jordan 5 “Racer Blue” finally releases on February 12th.

Arriving in sizes for adults and kids, the latest retro favors a predominantly “Black” color scheme that enables contrasting “Racer Blue” and reflective silver tones throughout to revel in the spotlight. Suede construction across most of the upper works in-tandem with semi-translucent mesh netting at the profiles for a build rooted in Air Jordan heritage, while the aforementioned detailing cement themselves in the same. While some sneaker purists will overlook the upcoming drop because it forgoes “NIKE AIR”-branding at the spine in favor of a Jumpman logo, old and new fans alike have consistently expressed their interest in the pair across social media since it first emerged via mock-up last summer. Underfoot, icy blue, semi-translucent traction adds a modern-touch to Tinker Hatfield’s 1990 design.

Enjoy detailed shots of the shoes here below, and find a full family size run arriving to Nike SNKRS on Saturday, February 12th.

The Air Jordan 3 Retro "Fire Red" is Rumored to Return in 2022

According to reports, Jordan Brand is now expected to bring back the Air Jordan 3 Retro “Fire Red” next year.

Rumored to arrive sometime in 2022, the potential retro release of the beloved sneaker is believed to feature the classic “Nike Air” branding at the rear. Originally introduced back in 1988, the Air Jordan 3 Retro “Fire Red” came alongside the original “White Cement,” “Black Cement” and “True Blue” colorways. The “Fire Red” look for the AJ3 last received the retro treatment in 2007 and 2013, although both releases featured the unfavored Jumpman logos at the rear.
