Nike Raid 2014 Remake

  Nike recently treated sneaker fans to the Air Raid Jungle Gym from 1993 (which we covered here at Sneakerjawns), and now we're getting the 2014 remake.  The Air Raid brand has been building some steam this year with the Air Raid Low, Air Raid Jungle Gym, and Air Raid OG, and notably the Nike Air Max 1 featuring in the Live Together Play Together Pack with a Jungle Gym colorway.  On top of that, the 90s silhouette is getting releases at the beginning of the year with the Air Raid 2014 remake and the Air Raid Ray Guns.  The old silhouette is getting some attention from their makers, that is Nike, to give more variations to the classic style. The Nike Air Raid has much lore to it, designed by Tinker Hatfield as an outdoor counterpart to the Air Jordans, featured in commercials with Spike Lee, hence the Live Together Play Together ethos.  The 2014 Black and White Air Raid is not as colorful as the jungle gym, but style doesn't always come with flare.  Let's ...

Off-White X Air Jordan 5 | Release Date & Pics

The Nike and Off-white deal has made it long enough for Air Jordan’s 30th anniversary. Jordan 5’s go way back to the good old days, originally released in 1990 and the era of ”The Goat.” The retro version will have it's distinct white, fire red, and black colorways, and be released in remembrance of Michael Jordan scoring 29 points against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

 Air Jordan 5 rumors have had at times been unreliable. The rumors of such a drop caused massive speculation but we got official product information at Paris Fashion Week.

At the event models and Virgil himself advertised the Off White x Air Jordan 5 on their feet. And now the pictures are rolling in and we can comment on the design. It’s the talk of the town after Paris Fashion Week’s winter/fall presentation. The closer looks are tantalizing, giving us vibes of Virgil’s ghosting series. The elements are certainly there like Easter eggs for us to admire, and appreciate the way back machine aesthetics.

 Of course, we have the famed Air Jordan silhouette, to begin with. More features are the OG black metallic colorway, and translucent TPE deconstructed design. The shoe has classic midfoot cages which now have circular cutouts and complimented with showy black stitching. It has a black textile mesh upper. 

 As with all Off-white collaborations, they got some shine with their brand laces and the company’s text on the inner netting side panel. The tongue has 3M reflective qualities with a red jump man logo adding to the legend and authenticity. To finalize the Jordan 5, they stitched the “23” on the heels and paired it with an aged translucent outsole.



 It's been about 36 years since the official release of the first Air Jordans, and now we have Off-white joining the bandwagon for this back to the past release. 


The Off-White x Air Jordan 5 will be released on February 15 at select retailers and Nike. The scheduled price is $225.

Reebok x Braindead

BRAIN DEAD and Reebok are at it again, having worked together on the latter's more experimental shapes for the past three years. Both parties chose the legendary Club C Revenge for their current collaboration. Kyle Ng and Ed Davis have redesigned the shape, which is rooted in tradition. The upper features a fuzzy, moss-like construction that runs the length of the shoe. Throughout the sneaker, deep browns and blues work in combination with shades of green to create an arrangement that resembles overgrown grass and other natural phenomena.
