Union Confirms Its Next Air Jordan Collab Four different pairs dropping this month.

-


 After being hinted at by Union owner Chris Gibbs, the Los Angeles streetwear pioneers are continuing to tease an Air Jordan 4 project.

The latest teaser includes an image of designer Tinker Hatfield's original Air Jordan 4 sketch from 1988, which is possibly indicative of the direction Union will head with its collaboration. Key differences between this sketch and the retail version of the Air Jordan 4 include a zebra-embossed durabuck overlay and the extension of breathable mesh across the full length of the tongue.

At this time, there's still no release details for the Union x Air Jordan 4, but it looks like the collab can be considered a lock at this point.

UPDATE (08/06): After months of speculation, Union Los Angeles has unveiled its latest collaboration with Jordan Brand.

Union's Chris Gibbs also shares the design process behind his "Off Noir" and "Guava" Air Jordan 4s stating that growing up, he would fold the tongues on his 4s, a detail which is replicated on the upcoming pairs, but the stitching can also easily be removed based on the wearer's preference.

An extra panel has also been added to the upper's overlays to allow a better balance in the upper's mesh to suede ratio. Meanwhile, the vintage-looking yellowed soles are a call back to the store's Air Jordan 1 collaboration from 2018.

Also releasing alongside the aforementioned Air Jordan 4s are the Air Jordan Delta Mid "Off Noir" and the Air Jordan Zoom '92 "Guava," all scheduled to release on Aug. 29 at Unionjordanla.com.

NEW R. KELLY SEX TAPE LEAKED AND THE PHOTO’S ARE GRAPHIC

R. Kelly is locked up thanks to the release of a new sex tape which shows him years ago having sex with another 14 year old girl. The tape is very graphic and you without a doubt can see it is R. Kelly performing sexual acts on the girl. Defense lawyer Michael Avenatti spoke about the investigation. Avenatti is representing six people in the investigation, including two alleged victims, two parents, and two “whistleblowers.” Avenatti addressed the tape, explaining, “The tape was shot in the late ‘90s, approximately 1999, it depicts two separate scenes shot on two separate days within Mr. Kelly’s residence at the time. The audio on the tape, you can clearly listen to it — it is clear — the video is far superior to the video that was used in connection to the 2008 trial. It is an entirely different video.” He added, “It is also clear from other things that are depicted on the video that this is in no way role-playing during some sexual act,” he said. “It is clear that this young l

10 killed, 73 shot in bloodiest week of the year

CHICAGO (FOX 32 NEWS)  - A  violent weekend  capped off Chicago's bloodiest week of the year. From April 30 through May 6, 10 people were killed and 73 others were wounded in gun violence across Chicago. This latest outbreak of violence underscores how gunmen are literally getting away with crimes up to and including murder. Overwhelmed police detectives have 155 currently active investigations of 2018 homicides, while "solving" or "clearing" 27 cases, barely 17 percent.  The clearance rate has dropped steadily in recent years, leaving thousands of murders in the last decade unsolved and thousands of killers still on the street. Chicago Police used to solve more than 60 percent of murders, back in the 1990s. New York City cops still do. But the number of CPD detectives has been cut since then.  As Mayor Rahm Emanuel prepares to run for re-election, he'll swear in 100 new detectives later this month and promises 100 more by the end of the year.
