If we were to hand out ‘sneaker awards’ right now, the trophy for “Most Suprising Sneaker of the Year” is without a doubt the Jordan Son of Mars. Air Jordan hybrid sneakers haven’t always been widely embraced so the projections for the Jordan Son of Mars weren’t much different than what we experienced with past hybrid projects like the Jordan Rare Air and even some colorways of the Jordan Spiz’ike, but with the fanfare attached to the first ‘Pop Art’ colorway and the recently released ‘Club Purple’, we can only expect this classic Bulls get-up to be the most popular of the bunch. Tentatively scheduled for a June 2nd release, this new Jordan Son Of Mars colorway wraps up the OG Black/Red colorway while adding in some key-note details of the AJ Legacy; it’s the subtle hints of patent leather on the mudguard, specking on the ‘sharks teeth’, the iced-out ousole, and the two tones of elephant print that give this upcoming Jordan Son of Mars a handsome profile. We’ve got a detailed look at this upcoming release below so let us know what you think and we’ll keep you updated on when developments arrive. Photos: marqueesole
