Sneaker Reseller Benjamin Kicks Flaunts Dozens Of Pairs of “Union” Air Jordan 2’s, Backdoor Shenanigans?
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Instagram / Instagram Benjamin Kicks strikes again! A year after pulling off the most hated backdoor heist when he walked away with a truck full of “Trophy Room” Air Jordan 1’s, infamous sneaker reseller, Benjamin Kicks has taken to social media to flaunt his latest haul in the form of the limited-edition “Union” Air Jordan 2’s that dropped last week. While many thought BK had a connect at the Union brick-and-mortar store, he took to IG to insinuate that he actually has a backdoor at Nike itself writing “What if my back door isn’t a store but the ….. themselves.” The sneaker game is trash, b. While Marcus Jordan got much heat for backdooring the “Trophy Room” 1’s to Kicks last year (and gets flooded with comments on his IG page to this day about it), we h...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Jordan Brand / Jordan Brand It looks like the streets will have to pay a premium in order to catch that drip. Nike is rumored to be increasing the price on the Nike Air Jordan 1 High sneaker by the end of this year. As per Sneaker News the iconic shoe is in very high demand, so much so that the ticket on these feet pieces is rumored to go up by the start of holiday season. The Beaverton, OR based brand has yet to formally confirm the speculation but one sneaker insider says that the writing is on the walls. @zSneakerHeadz recently reviewed the upcoming Air Jordan 1 release schedule for the remainder of 2022 and was quick to point to the elephant in the room with the slightly more expensive tag of $180.00 for the Jordan 1 Reimagined “Chicago.” Re...
The Return Of “Air Yeezy”? Kanye West Teases Jordan Collab, Allegedly
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: JJ/Bauer-Griffin / Getty A minute ago social media began to suspect that Kanye West would be making a shocking return to the Nike brand when he was spotted wearing a pair of Nike Vandal High “Terminator”‘s, but unfortunately for sneaker aficionados nothing ever came after that moment. While he’s since gone back to wearing wild ass Adidas Yeezy boots, slides, and male struggle stripper boots, today (Jan. 21) he dropped a hint that not only could he be working with Nike again, but this time with their crown jewel brand, Jordan. Taking to Instagram to post the famous Jumpman logo that is a silhouette of one Michael Jordan, Kanye captioned it with “👀” to get the sneaker world in a frenzy in a matter of seconds. Could the long-awaited Adidas/Jorda...

HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Dave J Hogan / Getty Nike and Jordan have a successful history of collaborating with music artists on limited edition drops with names like Travis Scott, J. Balvin, and Kanye West having churned out some classic grails, but is Billie Eilish next in line to drop a new hype sneaker with the Swoosh brand? Though there hasn’t been any confirmation from either Nike, Jordan nor Billie herself, yesterday a picture of their supposed collaboration began to make the rounds on social media which showed Billie’s name alongside Nike and the Jumpman logo on some sort of packaging paper. While it’s been rumored that Billie would be working on something with Nike for a minute, nothing was officially announced as the sneaker aficionado has been doing her thing in the...

The Air Jordan XXXVI Seems Like It’s Ready To Take Flight
HipHopWired Featured Video Source: Sarah Stier / Getty Yes, the Air Jordan Retro drops and collaborations tend to get 99% of the hype all year round, but that doesn’t mean Jordan Brand isn’t continuing the Jordan line. For 2021 the Jordan Brand continues to build upon the legacy that his Airness built and will be releasing a brand new Air Jordan 36 sometime this year. While no official pictures of the new silhouette have been released, Dallas Wings star, Satou Sabally gave the world a sneak peak of the upcoming kicks and they’re definitely original. Looking similar to the Air Jordan 35, the AJ 36’s feature a purple knit base while once again bringing back the Eclipse Plate in the midsole that was the standout feature on the two previous models. We personally appreciate air bubbles are sure...
Jayson Tatum Poses With The New Air Jordan 35
Source: Mike Ehrmann / Getty Ever since images of the new Air Jordan 35 spread across the web, sneakerheads and collectors had mixed feelings about the new-age design and while no one was sure if it was the next installment into the illustrious Air Jordan line, it seems like it actually is. Yesterday (Sept. 9), the Boston Celtic’s star forward Jayson Tatum posed with an exclusive pair of the Air Jordan 35 which boasts a rather “What The” kind of colorway which features grey, black, blue, red, orange, and yellow all over the new silhouette. While these aren’t for everyone it’s sure to have some fans eagerly awaiting their chance to purchase the intriguing sneakers. No word on when these joints are set to drop or for how much (we figure north of $200), but whenever they do we’re sure heads w...
Michael Jordan’s Game-Worn Air Jordan 1 “Shattered Backboard” Sells For Record $615K
Source: Stadium Goods / Christie’s Well, someone out there just spent a Galactus sized grip on a pair of OG Air Jordans they can’t possibly rock. Source: Stadium Goods / Christie’s A few weeks ago we reported that Stadium Goods and Christie‘s were about to hold a one-of-a-kind auction featuring all kinds of game-worn Michael Jordan memorabilia and not only did it go all the way down, but it shattered records. After all the bids were in and the smoke cleared, a pair of original game-worn Air Jordan 1’s ended up selling for a staggering $615,000, shattering the record setting sale of $560,000 for a pair of Air Jordan 1’s back in May. We feel like it was either DJ Khaled or Fat Joe that were behind the winning bid given their sneaker aficionado statuses. While the 1’s were the gems of the auc...
