Four of the best Jordan 4s available now at WOOVIN
Image: Sneaker News
The Jordan 4 is one of the most popular sneaker models of the last few years. Beloved for its rich history, complex panelling and retro style. Suitable for almost any outfit, it’s heavily padded for a comfortable fit. So today we are spotlighting a couple of the amazing Air Jordan 4 colorways available on WOOVIN now.
Image: Sneaker NewsJordan 4 Retro Seafoam (W)
Starting off this list is a very recent release, the Jordan 4 Retro Seafoam. Taking a classic white and black Air Jordan 4 and splashing hits of a pastel green across it. In doing so, giving the sneaker a unique look whilst also keeping it simple enough to not be overbearing. A soft green is rarely seen on shoes, especially on something as popular as the Air Jordan 4. And this pair’s execution is perfect. Although it’s classed as a women’s exclusive, WOOVIN has the shoe stocked up to an EU 44.5.

Next on our list is another new colorway of the Air Jordan 4. This time a similar white base has been detailed with grey and dark blue details for a traditional finish. Plus, a black speckled pattern is also present across the grey detailing, as is often the case on Jordan products. The perfect sneaker for summer, the Jordan 4 Midnight Navy would work great alongside your favourite pair of cargos.

Jordan 4 Retro A Ma Maniere Violet OreOne of the standout silhouettes of last year, you can now pick up this soon-to-be classic colorway at WOOVIN. After several successful collaborations with Jordan, A Ma Maniere came back to work on the Jordan 4 Retro A Ma Maniére Violet Ore. They’re reworking their magic, using high-quality materials and showing why they are one of the hottest collaborators around right now. The aged off-white sole and purple leather give the shoe a worn-in luxury feel that few other models can replicate straight out of the box.

Jordan 4 Retro Fire Red
Last on this list we have an OG colorway, originally debuting in 1989. The Fire Red’s have been a fan-favourite ever since, going on to feature many times on other Jordan models. The black and white model with striking red details is a winning combination. Most notably, they’re the colors of Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls, transporting the wearer back to Jordans glory days. So, for that nostalgic kick, you can’t go wrong with the latest retro of the Jordan 4 Retro Fire Red.
Everything you need to know about the Jordan 6 Retro Cool Grey
Image: Sneaker News
Set to release before the end of the month, the Air Jordan 6 will return decked out in a classic Jordan colorway. Although this is the first time the Cool Grey colorway has hit the Air Jordan 6. We have already seen the colorway on the 11s, 4s and several other models. All of which, the public has received with much excitement.
Image: Sneaker News
What you need to know
The shoe will come in a nubuck grey base, with white leather overlays covering the rest of the upper. The tongue, lace lock, lining and heel tab also come in grey with white highlights. The midsole comes in white with grey detailing and the outsole in an icy blue transparent rubber. As mentioned, this is not the first time we have seen the Cool grey colorway. Popularised most notably on the Air Jordan 11, it quickly became a fan favourite. Making quite a fuss when they first released in 2010, and subsequently retro-ed in 2021. This came shortly after the colorway debuted on the Air Jordan 4. And more recently has featured on the 3’s, 10’s and 12’s. It was only a matter of time before it made it to the Air Jordan 6.
Grey’s seen quite the resurgence in the few years, primarily thanks to the rise of New Balance. Famous for their grey, previously considered “boring”, colorways. New Balance’s simple colorways paired with their well-engineered models have become a staple in the popular sneaker scene over the last few years. Going as far as to celebrate “Grey Day” every day, New Balance has brought grey sneakers up with them. Making it the perfect time for Jordan to return to a classic grey colorway of theirs. Applying it to one of their other famous models for the first time.

When and where will it be available?
The Jordan 6 Retro Cool Grey shall become available on the 25th of February. It will also be available in Grade School sizing, making it available for anyone who rocks the smaller sizes. After which, you can buy and sell pairs of the Air Jordan 6 Cool Grey here at WOOVIN.
Everything you need to know about the upcoming Nike Air Force 1 Low Tiffany & Co
Image: Yankee Kicks
It’s official, world-famous jeweller, Tiffany & Co, and sneaker giant, Nike are teaming up. Updating the Nike Air Force 1 with a luxury makeover. It will follow on from a recent surge of high-end collaborations. With Nike trying to replicate the success of their collaboration last year with Louis Vuitton.
Image: Yankee Kicks
What you need to know
The shoe comes in beautiful black suede with hits of their classic Tiffany Blue on the swooshes. Rope laces and italicised Tiffany lettering in silver detail the tongue. And a silver engraved piece attached at the heel references Tiffany & Co’s jewellery background. Leather detailing is present around the eyelets and on the heel tab. And more Tiffany blue is visible on the insole and the circle parts of the sole’s traction pattern. These details combine to create a sleek silhouette, that revels in the subtlety of its features. We have also seen a reversed pair, whereby the Tiffany blue color takes up most of the shoe. At this point however, we can assume that colorway will be a friends and family release.
What most people have compared the shoes to, was their unofficial collaboration back in 2005. When Nike first collaborated with Diamond Supply Co. on a pair of “Aqua Blue” Nike SB Dunk Lows. What was special about the pair, as well as being super successful, was their use of Tiffany’s classic blue hue. Hence, they are often referred to as the “Tiffany” Dunks. Therefore, for Tiffany & Co themselves to finally take on a Nike silhouette has drawn several comparisons between their silhouette and Diamond Supply Co.’s. Giving sneaker fans a wave of nostalgia for the original days of the SB Dunks.

When and Where will they be available?
The Tiffany and Co Air Force 1 is currently set to release on March 7th, for $400. But it will also release alongside several silver accessories sold separately. These include a shoehorn, and a toothbrush, referencing sneakerheads’ classic method for cleaning their kicks. After its release, you will be able to buy and sell the Nike Air Force 1 Low Tiffany & Co right here at WOOVIN.

What you need to know about the Big Red Boot and the company behind it
Image: GQ
What is the Big Red Boot?
The MSCHF Big Red Boot is artwork collective (and increasingly sneaker-oriented brand) MSCHF’s latest silhouette to cause headlines. It’s fashioned from the attire of the popular manga character Astro boy. Covering up to the knee, with a simplistic and circular shape, the shoes consist of a TPU rubber. This allows the boot to bend and remain wearable yet still convey a comic book-like aesthetic. Covered completely in red, they are hard to miss.
Although they aren’t on sale to the public yet, we have seen them in pre-match tunnels and courtside at NBA games, and on feet in the WWE. The shoes have even gone viral because of how seemingly hard they can be to take off. Every time it has done so it’s caught everyone’s eye, making headlines. But these boots aren’t from a global retailer like Adidas and Nike, so who is behind this smash hit?
Image: Complex
Who are MSCHF?
Previously best known for their multiple lawsuits with Nike and Vans, MSCHF has been making a small buzz for a while in the sneaker world. This has mainly been for their wild designs, which often took a lot of inspiration from previously established sneaker classics. For example, the “Wavy Baby” in collaboration with rapper Tyga. This model took the same craziness of the Red Boot but applied it to the Vans Old Skool. Much to Vans’ discontent.
MSCHF has used this method to success several times over the last few years. Justifying their recreation of patented products as a form of transformative art. However, such reasoning has rarely been seen as an acceptable excuse by brands. More recently, however, they released the Gobstomper sneakers with talk show host Jimmy Fallon. When worn down, the shoe’s upper would reveal several brightly colored layers. This saw them go for more of a unique silhouette, dodging any lawsuits though still relying on celebrity endorsements.
Image: Complex
The release of the MSCHF Big Red Boot has seen a shift in MSCHF’s marketing strategy, however. Doubling down on their wackiness and absurdity but cutting out the more controversial elements. As well as their strong dependency on celebrities. The shoes stand alone as impressive and are causing celebrities to want to assimilate with the brand. Instead of MSCHF being put in the position where they are trying to reach out for endorsements. This seems more in line with MSCHF’s artistic vision and signals them as a brand to look out for in the future.

Looking ahead to the Jordan 1 Retro High OG White Cement
Image: Sneaker Bar Detroit
Jordan’s most popular silhouette meets Jordan’s most popular pattern with the new release of the Jordan 1 Retro High OG White Cement. We’ve got word that, later this month, Jordan will be releasing a version of their classic Air Jordan 1. However, it will ditch its traditional solid colors, instead receiving an elephant print makeover.
Image: Sneaker Bar Detroit
What you need to know
The pair comes in a white leather base, with an elephant print covering the leather overlays. Hints of black are present around the collar, on the Nike swoosh and on the laces. The upper is paired with an off-white midsole and grey outsole.
The “White Cement” name is in reference to the Air Jordan 3 colorway of the same name. Also coming in white, grey and black, but characterized by its elephant print “cement” detailing. First appearing on the Air Jordan 3, the infamous elephant print has become a staple of Jordan’s branding. And since then, it’s featured on a number of their other silhouettes. Its three-dimensional nature and cracked appearance give the sneaker character and mark it distinctly as a Jordan product. In essence, it’s their equivalent of Louis Vuitton’s Damier and monogram patterns or Gucci’s red and green stripes. Such a distinct pattern, therefore, furthers Jordan’s attempts at assimilating with luxury brands, something the main Air Jordan line has been trying to accomplish throughout its history. As proven by their multiple silhouettes inspired by luxury sports cars and high-end pricing.
Furthermore, introducing this pattern (which started on the Air Jordan 3) behind the Wings logo present on the Air Jordan 1 is a notable touch. The Jumpman logo replaced the Wings logo after the Air Jordan 2. Therefore, making this the first time the pattern and branding have been present together on an Air Jordan model. What’s more, as well as being historically significant, it looks great too!
Image: Sneaker Bar Detroit
When and where will it be available?
Having only just released official photos, the shoes aren’t set to release until February, the 26th to be exact. After which, you can buy and sell the Jordan 1 Retro High OG White Cement right here at WOOVIN.

Having just broken the scoring record, LeBron James has cemented himself as one of the greatest ever to play the sport of basketball.

Jordan 4 Retro A Ma Manière Violet Ore
One of our favourite shoes of last year, A Ma Manière have been on a tear in the sneaker industry, ever since they created that Air Jordan 3 back in 2021. And this pair is no different, made from top materials pulled together to create a luxury burgundy version of the Jordan 4 Retro A Ma Maniére Violet Ore. A model which is already super popular at the moment. What better time is there to get your hands on a shoe that will age like fine wine?

Hot off a Grammys win for Best Musica Urbana Album, Bad Bunny has been instrumental in the success of the Adidas Forum in recent years. Keeping up with the Nike Dunk and the New Balance 550, the Forum has been a bright spark for Adidas in a time when their top selling Yeezy line has been thrown into jeopardy. Moreover, Bad Bunny’s latest forum, the Adidas Forum Buckle Low Bad Bunny Last Forum, is just as brilliant as the first pair he created. Offering a sleek colorway with faded sail detailing fitting the shoe’s vintage aesthetic.

Nike Air Max 1 Patta Waves Monarch (With Bracelet)
Last but not least, we have chosen to highlight the first Nike Air Max 1 Patta Waves colorway to release. Back in 2021, the first time we saw the now well-known wavy transformation of the Air Max 1 was on a white and blue, and white and orange colorway. But it was the orange pair in particular that stood out as the most desired shoe from Patta and Nikes Air Max 1 collaboration. Not only are they available in several sizes on WOOVIN, but each pair will come with the original bracelet it shipped with. The bracelet features a Nike swoosh next to the Suriname flag, paying homage to Edson Sabajo and Gee Schmidt, the founders of Patta, and their Surinamese heritage.
LeBron James is covering his latest model in a Liverpool-themed colorway
On the surface, a collaboration between one of Britain’s biggest football clubs and basketball superstar, LeBron James, can seem strange. But, with the knowledge that both parties are endorsed by Nike and that James has been a minority owner of Liverpool since 2011, his latest sneaker collaboration is hardly surprising.
Image: Sneaker News
What you need to know
This is not the first time LeBron James has collaborated with Liverpool, though: they originally linked up back in 2012 on the LeBron 9. Its relative success caused a reverse colorway of the original collaboration to be released last year and is likely why the two have teamed up again on the LeBron 20. LeBron also released a pair of LeBron 18s with PSG’s Kylian Mbappe a couple of years ago, so this is the 3rd time he has given his shoes a football-themed makeover. But the nature of this collaboration isn’t the only reason it’s attracting a buzz, it’s also an extremely interesting design. It takes the LeBron 20 and strips back its panelling for a more luxurious, minimal suede upper. The model retains its performance abilities with its Zoom cushioned sole but the upper makes the shoe much more viable off the court as well. The shoes come entirely in red, save for a couple of black details underneath the swoosh on the side of the shoe, and on the outsole. Gold detailing on the deubré and the top eyelet adds to the luxurious feel of the shoe, whilst also in keeping with Liverpool’s color palette. Moreover, Liverpool branding is present on the heels, whilst LeBron’s signature covers the leather tongue tab.
Image: Sneaker News
When and where will it be available?
The LeBron 20 Liverpool F.C. will be released on the 9th of February worldwide and will soon after become available through our WOOVIN site. So, if you are looking for a new pair of basketball shoes, the LeBron 20 has been a standout model this year in terms of its performance capabilities. Or, if you’re just looking for a sleek model that’ll catch people’s attention, maybe this is the shoe for you.

Everything you need to know about Tom Sachs’ latest design
In 2022, Tom Sachs and Nike released their unusually conventional new model, creatively titled the General Purpose Shoe. And now in 2023, they have teamed up again to release a heavily anticipated brown colorway. The Nike Craft General Purpose Shoe Tom Sachs Field Brown.
Image: Sole Collector
What you need to know
The new colorway was first seen back in August of last year and, since then, has been an anticipated release of an otherwise heavily demanded sneaker. The shoe comes in a suede and reinforced mesh upper covered entirely in a light brown, whilst the darker brown midsole is attached to a thin black outsole. Other details include flat brown laces, black pull tabs on the heel and tongue, and black and orange Nike branding on a white tongue tag. All these details come together to create a simple, and even self-described as boring, silhouette. But the team intended to create the perfect shoe to leave by the door, a shoe to slip on and meet your everyday needs. And their latest colorway’s simple color-blocking drives that message home.
Whilst there is a lot of demand within the world of sneakers to get anything with Tom Sachs’ name on it, the General Purpose Shoe is not designed to be a rare collector’s item. It’s a shoe that’s designed to be worn and is marketed towards everyday sneaker wearers. Rather than messing about with bright and dynamic marketing, it’s kept very simple with no models or athletes’ endorsements. The shoes are left to stand up for themselves, gaining merit solely on their practicality. Hence why the colorway using darker colors is significant, since it will therefore have fewer visible stains, looking good for longer than the white and yellow colorways released last year. Moreover, brown is a particularly popular colour within sneakers right now, off the back of the earthy tones used on Yeezy and Travis Scott models that have since caused a greater trend within the sneaker industry.
Image: Sole Collector
When and where will it be available?
If you would like to get a pair of the brown General Purpose Shoes for yourself, they will initially become available on the 6th of February in North America and will then get an international release on the 7th of February. After which, you could buy and sell the Nike Craft General Purpose Shoe Tom Sachs Field Brown on WOOVIN.

Looking ahead to the latest Spider-man themed Air Jordan 1s
The Air Jordan 1 has been one of the most popular sneakers for some time now, and 2023 is expected to be no different. But one particular pair is standing out amongst the rest as one of the most exciting Air Jordan 1 releases that will hit stores this year. So, without further ado here is everything we know about the Jordan 1 High OG “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-verse.”
Image: Sole Collector
Everything you need to know
After the release of the first Spider-man: Into the Spider-verse movie, Jordan released a pair of Jordan 1s that closely resembled the shoes of the main character, Miles Morales. This piece of cross-advertising, using Jordan’s position in pop culture within the film and Spiderman’s name to sell the real shoes, was a hit. Especially given the connections between comic book characters and collectables. The culture around superhero paraphernalia shares a lot of its nature with the world of sneaker collecting. We have already seen brands like vans and converse make Marvel and DC collaboration sneakers before. But this was the first time one of the most popular and in-demand models, the Air Jordan 1, received the same treatment. Moreover, now that the sequel to the first movie is soon to be released, we have finally gotten photos of the following Air Jordan 1 release.
Coming in a Chicago-style colourway, the shoes feature the same white, red and black detailing – but the main difference comes on the upper. The red overlays are split into different parts, with different patterns and materials stitched together. This is done to create an effect mimicking the splicing of multiverses and cartoon styles which takes place in the movies. Otherwise, the shoes feature an off-white midsole and tongue, adding an aged look to the shoe, matching current trends in sneaker fashion at the moment.
Image: Sole Collector
When and where will it be available?
Expect the shoes to release sometime in May, likely coinciding with the release of the Spider-man: Across the Spider-verse movie. Upon their release, they should become available through a number of trusted sellers using WOOVIN, where you can pick sneakers without any hassle or buyer fees.
