In these models, there are  Air Jordan 8 OVO  with the black gold releasing, there are various media are also competing reports of the shoes, so that the shoes is very hot and   exposure a lot .

Before talking about shoes, let’s know Drake.  Drake was born in Toronto , Ontario, Canada in October 24, 1986. In 2006, Drake released his personal album and made his success on his personal website.in 2009 ,he signed a record contract with Young Money Entertainment, and in 2010 released his first official album “Thank Me Later”. Drake and Rihanna collaborated with  “What’s my name?” In the following few years, he has also won the best rap song award—the best rap album, the most popular rap / hip hop singer, the best international male singer and other awards. And he also cooperated with Jay-Z, Kanye West, Eminem, DJKhaled, Young Jeezy, Mary J. Blige, Justin Bieber and many other famous musicians . And his song “Sing” is more ingredients which was judged as a subversion of Hip Hop.

The shoes of OVO, it is an acronym for October’s Very Own which  a brand owned by Drake and represents the music group Drake  and also symbolizes he was born in October. At the same time, OVO is also a hip-hop, tooling elements as the essence of brand design street brand. Over the years,he has also cooperated with many brands to launch a number of co-branded products, which are favored by the trendy Icon.

Drake cooperate with Jordan Brand in 2013. Drake became the first artist signed by Jordan Brand and became the first member to sign up for Jordan Brand as a non-athlete. Jordan Brand opted to partner with him and they hope that can improved the selling base the influence  of Drake  .

Usher isn’t the only one with some gold Air Jordan 3s in his collection. Showing up at his annual OVO Fest was Drake, who had on this special Air Jordan 3 “OVO” pair. The quality of the photos obscures any definite owl logos, but you’ve got to figure that the shoes bear some of the same markings as previous “OVO” Air Jordans.

As Drake and Jordan Brand co-operation to further carry out, the  Air Jordan 6 “OVO”  revealed .  following up those amazing Air Jordan X and XII samples that were given out at a Raptors game some time ago. The Air Jordan 6 OVO features a classy Black/Gold colorway (almost like the DMPs) with the OVO logo etched onto the heel of the shoe. This pair of Air Jordan 6 “OVO” or will be Drake and Jordan Brand’s first listed cooperation shoes also spread like wildfire.

With the NBA All-Star weekend in Jordan Brand family member Drake’s home city of Toronto this year, it was a no-brainer that there’d be some big things dropping from the Jordan x OVO collection. The world finally gets their chance at the black Air Jordan 10 OVO, but there’s more than just the sneakers to look forward to this weekend. Dropping alongside the premium all-black Jordan 10s is a full range of apparel featuring dual OVO and Air Jordan branding, including hoodies, t-shirts, velour track suits, and caps.

 

OVO x Air Jordan Trunner

Earlier this week it was announced that Jumpman will be able to call The Six their permanent home with the opening of Yonge 306. The brand new Jordan Brand store dubbed the Jordan 306 Yonge opened in Toronto this morning and you knew it was only right for Jordan Brand to bless the store with an exclusive drop, right? The brand new store exclusively released the OVO x Jordan Trunner LX. As expected, the shoe sold out with the quickness.

This version of the OVO x Jordan Trunner LX comes dressed in Black, White and Metallic Gold. Aside from the colors uses on the shoe, what really gives the shoe an OVO feel is the OVO Owl noted on the heel portion of the midsole.

 

it combines the heritage classics of the Jumpmans with the luxe aesthetic of OVO – and that continues with the upcoming Air Jordan 8. Gold highlights at the heel and sole steal the shoe, while the red Jumpman inside the customary 8 tongue tab delivers an iconic look fans have grown to know and love. Both of Drake’s visions of this collaborative effort will be releasing as part of an online 

The shoes are still using our already familiar OVO series of classic colors black and white as the main theme, and it still texture excellent lychee skin, and decorated with the usual golden detail, of course, the shoes black and white At the same time in the tongue at the same time using the very eye-catching red Jumpman Logo, adding some vitality to the shoes, but also increased the recognition of shoes.

Drake showcased the Air Jordan 8 in two color options for his favorite college basketball squad back in 2016. Matching the University of Kentucky, he was seen in both Home and Away versions.

Transpiring today, Drake took to Instagram once again to share both colorways which he called the Air Jordan 8 OVO ‘Calipari’ Pack. Like mentioned, both are dressed in the Kentucky Wildcats ‘Home’ and ‘Away color options with one done in predominate White while the other in Black. Featuring hints of Kentucky Blue, the OVO Owl is seen on the back heel pull tabs.

The Air Jordan 10 “OVO” has definitely been one of the most highly anticipated releases of all 2015. A large portion of its success had to do with Drake being linked to the shoe. Jordan Brand is well aware that having Drake linked to a any Jordan shoe will automatically make the shoe more wanted and desired by the public. It appears as if Drake and Jordan Brand may have plans to link up once again by coming out with a special rendition of the Jordan CP3.IX.

It appears Chris Paul has a pair of OVO x Jordan CP3 9s in his sneaker rotation, adding onto an endless list of special player exclusives for CP3. The CP3 IX model features the typical white, gold, and gum colorway. The PE is most likely a player or family exclusive which seems to be a recent trend for Jordan Brand and Nike lately.

The OVO x Air Jordan 6 Low “Hot 100’s”, seen here for the first time, features a white leather upper with a red Jumpman at the tongue followed by “VIEWS” spelled out across the translucent outer, a fitting ode to the lead single from his record-setting fourth studio album of the same name.

 

 

The shoes mentioned above, we can easily find that many of the shoes are exposure by  Drake himself  but it can not available for some shoes . And for the commercial version, we can find the general design is the main theme of black, white and gold tones, so maybe it has been a little boring for the colorway.

 

 

 

Drake received a truly one-of-kind 31st birthday gift this year in the form of a custom Stone Island x Air Jordan 12, courtesy of The Shoe Surgeon. The unique Jordan 12 features repurposed materials from a Stone Island jacket and denim, including ribbing from the jacket used to create a sock-like ankle shroud. The repurposed denim is prominently displayed on the mudguard that overlays the royal blue upper, which also features subtle Stone Island branding. The Surgeon made sure not to forget the signature Stone Island badge, which is buttoned to the heel over a denim heel tab. In an Instagram post, The Shoe Surgeon described the materials used on this one-of-one pair as, “some of the most luxurious of textiles we have ever used.” 

Drake will also receive a personal, proprietary co-branded products. Such as his own on the foot of the OFF-WHITE x Air Jordan 1 “Chicago” , from the picture we can see that there are Virgil Abloh sneaker signature shoes, of course, we have easy access to such courtesy, but the shoes In the market, the popularity of the difference.

Drake wants to leave Jordan Brand, it is easy to explain . However, as we are familiar with OVO x Air Jordan is not meant to end, I believe everyone familiar with the laws of the market will not be so easily concluded, after all, commercial competition is everywhere, the credibility of how many rumors, in the end It is not clear until there is official cooperation.

Better Air Jordan 30 VS Air Jordan 31 VS Air Jordan 32 Performance Review

The Jordan’s shoes has been very popular since it released from  the Air Jordan 1 ,but today we are talking about the Jordan 30 , Jordan 31. Jordan 32.

The Air Jordan XXX ‘Black Cat’ has just been unveiled and will release in limited form during All Star Weekend.This Air Jordan XXX almost takes a Blacked out approach while using the hue on the woven and knit materials through the uppers. Even the XXX on the heel is done in Black which allows the look to flow nicely. Finishing them off is a translucent outsole.

 

The Air Jordan 31 Low recently released in a number of ‘PE’ looks for Jordan Brand schools in honor of March Madness.This isn’t your usual take on the whole cookies and cream theme though, as a pink hue hits the woven toecap in the gradual gradient that eventual leads to an Air Jordan 1 inspired leather heel construction complete with medial side ‘Wings’ branding on the ankle collar. The Jumpman branding is barely visible through matching stitching and an embossed leather tongue logo for a premium finish.

Similar to Nike’s Air Max Day, Jordan Brand has declared their own holiday, “MJ Day”. Celebrating the date in 1985 Michael Jordan received the infamous letter from the NBA banning his black and red Air Jordan 1 from the league because it violated uniform rules.

For the material, the air jordan 30 ,31, 32, they are great, but there is a little different .They are used to knit the upper as the main material, the shoes of the anti-rollover system can be  see similarities and differences, especially for  the 31 and 32 generation, they are completely exactly the same material compared to their predecessors 30, Jordan 30 have the tpu not only did not let me have the experience ,we can feel more the soft for this material . But this does not mean that the anti-rollover of the Jordan 31,32  which have a good performance , while for the  the anti-rollover of  Jordan 30, we can  give full scores. From the picture we can see that AJ generations seem to be very focused on the stability of the heel, such as Jordan 30 followed by tpu, Jordan31 leather followed by hard materials and Jordan 32 inherited from  a large piece of  tpu which can give you Followed by the best insurance.

I absolutely love the materials on the Air Jordan 32. Because of It definitely isn’t the most breathable  , but this type of Flyknit is what I’ve been waiting for since Nike first introduced it into the basketball line. There is no heavy glue usage, no TPU strands or yarn. Just really thick Flyknit that moves well with the foot.

For the cushioning : The air Jordan 30 actually just so so . but the Jordan 31 will be improve then last version .though the air jordan 31 haven’t had full length Zoom Air on the flagship Air Jordan since the 2010, but it used  the Flight Speed setup that make this setup feel as stable as past models with full length Zoom then the setup will quickly .The air Jordan 32 used the Full-length Unlocked Zoom Air seems to be a thing of the past because heel and forefoot segmented Zoom Air returns.We can feel the Zoom when you place enough pressure on the forefoot; it feels nice and it gives you the feeling that it springs into action as you need it rather than it lingering around while you may not be in need of the cushion. For me, this setup feels more balanced than unlocked setups in the past. 

For the traction : The Air Jordan 30 and 31 have been not good for  many that played in them from a traction standpoint.ordan Brand used an altered herringbone, which it also tried with the 31, and this time around it was a success. Dust only affected performance in a minor way; infrequent wiping was needed on a less than desirable court. If you play on a clean court, or at least one that is properly refinished once a year, you’re going to get a tacky experience that bites when you need it most.But the jordan 31 used clear rubber traction . I can think of is that the rubber compound works better with certain court finish rather than certain conditions.

 

overall, Jordan shoes  have been alway the best and it will be better.

Different Traction Shoes ,Different Feeling ?

As the part of shoes , the traction had a important role which it  the most sophisticated and most complex.Traction will be carry the weight and cushioning , the best material and tech also become more  and more  important .whether it is compelling appearance, or rich technology blessing, the soles of the charm can always be imaginative , Looking forward to wandering the cloud experience.

Nike kyrie shoes with its own arc outsole design – perhaps the only way to meet him in the state of the ground to dribble way also become great performance shoes , for the traction ,it  have more wrapping .also the material is great .

Kyrie 2  Signed boots bold use of micro-arc surface in the end and outsole design, this unprecedented initiative to meet Irving  required , also with the help of   Zoom Air cushion Cushioning configuration , Kyrie 2’s actual combat performance more great , stable fit the ground and improve the dribbling creativity which  is the pinnacle of this series.

Kyrie Irving pitched Kyrie 2 got the  three-point then win the championship trophy with the Kyrie 2 . coupled with its own creative design style, so that this pair of Nike Kyrie 2 undoubtedly became a unique sneaker in the history of the members.

Nike continue to establish a strategy since Kyrie 2’s success,  so the Kyrie 3 and Kyrie 4  which were born on the basis of the original Kyrie 2, were both strong grips , Flexible support and rebound cushioning triple advantage, also it used from the midsole extends to the vamp extra grip module design, focusing  on dribbling and gorgeous attack moves.

Kyrie 3 also designed by  Leo Chang surgeon, canceled the highly recognizable strap design that used in the last version , replaced by Flywire technology to achieve support and wraping performance, combined with the midsole and heel of the TPU material to enhance the overall resistance of sneakers Reversing ability. Fully-integrated, partition-independent grip module that provides excellent feedback and a sense of venue to help make the game more flexible and quick.

Then for the Kyrie 4 is comprised of multi-directional herringbone.This type of coverage worked really well on a variety of courts and conditions. and the teeth design of cushioning ,Although the outsoles started off a bit slick the first couple of nights . That made wiping the outsoles something that wasn’t required very often.

 

Since the Air Mag on sale in 2016, it has become synonymous with classics design with technology-inspired shape  . The ability to own shoes and sense the foot of the super shoes, once debut will lead the market blitz, and its expensive price but short supply.it is  a history of unprecedented non-comers super shoes.

HyperAdapt 1.0 technology inspired by its bottom, whenever the wearer on the foot, the shoe sensor will automatically tie the shoelace, while the blue light pouring out from the bottom position, creating a sense of overflowing sense of technology , Bringing the same visual effects as science fiction films. In addition, the wearer can also adjust the comfort level and interpret the definition of “smart” by means of the “+” and “-” buttons on the upper.

For a pair of shoes, it is  importance of traction design , also the outstanding designers will be advanced concepts into the midsole, with just the right configuration with stylish appearance.We hope that the nike will have new and great traction design .
