Another weekend, another Saturday full of dope drops from Jordan Brand and Nike Basketball. That Jordan pair in particular . . .
I speak, of course, of the Air Jordan 5 Bronze, the latest AJ5 to draw inspiration from the recent Olympic Games. A perfect rustic palette for fall, the shoe sports an almost metallic navy leather upper, hit with bronze accents for striking contrast.
While the Bronze V is rooted in hoops history, the weekend’s other two launches are present day basketball beasts. The white-and-black Kobe 11 brings a cool, versatile palette to the acclaimed mesh edition of the silhouette, while the black-and-red Kyrie 2 keeps things dark and crisp. Rainy outdoor hoops are just around the corner, after all.
All three shoes will hit select retailers nationwide tomorrow, September 24, including online accounts at 10am EDT/7am PDT. Head below for release info and Eastbay purchase links for each.
