Jordan Son Of Mars ‘Bordeaux’ – Preview

Bordeaux wasn’t originally a color, but rather, a French region and port city where close to a billion bottles of wine are corked each year. And with nearly 90% of those being red varieties, it’s easy to see how the word became synonymous with a rich and complex red shade. ’Bordeaux’ is also not the first Jordan Son of Mars release as it was erroneously nicknamed, that multicolor-accented ‘Pop Art’ model not really all that similar to the Air Jordan VII from which the wine-inspired name was appropriated. This new Son of Mars is much closer, but in this mixture of bright outdoor light coming inside and hitting a cellphone’s CMOS censor, we see a more washed out grey build and the outsole’s blue hit pushed toward a minty look. Let us know how you feel about these images’ overall lighter appearance and stick with Sneaker News for updates in advance of the September 15th release date. Photo: TSG

looks more like an Air Yeezy custom to me
Good Lord. These Son of Frankenstein looking kicks are absolutely heinous.
Very nice colorway. The shoe itself still doesn't do anything to satisfy ME however.
I like that little hit of mint on the sole
Damn...I hope this colorway is released instead of that darker version.lovin these...will have!
still ugly, sorry jb all this money your wasting on promoting ur sneaker isnt workin
Do yall see that black white and gold & in the back it looks all nubuck
yup these look ill - bordx > grapes
Skip these and show the 7's in the back please!
all son of mars seem crap till you try them on your feet.........they are awesome!!!
real nice colorway on an otherwise horrendous sneak
one word, tuff. If you are still on the hate bandwagon just stop you playing yourself
can we see them 7's in the back tho lol
i'm getting those... way better than the grapes.. imo
I think ill be just fine with the black and red colorway...l
More potato camera pics making my eyes hurt. These actually look kind of dope, I wear my 7s way too much, this might be a nice change of pace
Oh wow this and that other darker CW are nice. I could see myself wearing wither one of those.
I don't think that is the Bordeaux. Doesn't look anything like what it really looks like, and I've seen it in person numerous times.
doc plz use your common sens its bad lightin ofcourse they not guna look different, these pics have bad lighting
i think it is the lighting..well just have to wait and see
Im with you Doc... These arent the Bordeaux CW....I havent seen them in person but I have seen the pics of the son of mars "bordeaux" Beaverton sample pics... And they looked more like well.... The Bordeauxs....Not these.
