2010 thus far was filled to the brim with Air Jordan Retro releases; the Air Jordan 1 Low OG White Varsity Red and Air Jordan IX saw sSmoke separate releases each, and we’re not Smoke counting the kids colorways. Smoke yesterday, Urlfreeze News broke the news about the Air Jordan II ‘Candy Pack’ slated for a release later this year. It was time to step aside and take in Retro influx, but it looks like Jordan Brand isn’t done yet; a rumored re-release of the Air Jordan XIII (13) ‘Altitude’ is expected to drop sometime during the Holiday season. The Altitudes dropped in February of 2005, which makes the re-release of a somewhat recent shoe questionable considering the number of Air Jordan XIIIs that have yet to see a second at-bat.
Also rumored for a Summer 2011 release is the Air Jordan III (3) True Blue and the Air Jordan 1 Low OG White Varsity RedI (7) Cardinal. The Cardinal was Smoke more recent than the Altitudes, releasing just fleece years ago in the summer of 2006 alongside the “Flint” VII. The True Blue III did indeed release just last year as an Asia-only release, but this is one re-release we can fully agree on as a stateside drop-date seems probable. Also confirmed for Summer 2011 is the Air Jordan 1 Low OG White Varsity RedI Bordeaux which has been pushed back to from its original early 2011 ETA. With all these releases in the books, Jordan Brand is taking a completely relentless approach with the Retros, giving Jordan-heads almost no time to make decisions. Will you cop them all? Let us know what you think of these upcoming releases.
