With All-Star Weekend taking place in Chicago this year, you'd expect Jordan to come through with some exciting drops -- and you'd be right.
First is the Air Jordan 1 High OG "UNC to Chicago," which features a reed toe box and outsole for MJ's time with the Bulls, and a blue Swoosh and heel for his time at UNC.
This women's colorway drops on February 13 for $170 retail at Nike SNKRS and other select retailers.

Part of Nike's collection for the 2020 All-Star Weekend is the Nike Kyrie 6 "Trophies." This new Kyrie 6 colorway is designed to celebrate MJ's and the Bulls' 1996 championship.
The shoe features a solid red base with black and gold accents throughout the shoe, a speckled outsole, and “06/16/96” and “06/19/16” printed on the shoe as a nod to MJ's and Kyrie's championships.
The Kyrie 6 "Trophies" is dropping on February 14 for $140 at select retailers.

After being teased for years, Yeezy's first basketball shoe, dubbed Yeezy Basketball "Quantum," is dropping this All-Star Weekend.
According to Yeezy Mafia, there are two versions dropping: a basketball version as well as a lifestyle version. The build is similar to the Yeezy Boost 350 V2 but features a taller ankle collar, reflective detailing, and suede overlays.
The Yeezy Basketball "Quantum" will debut during the All-Star Weekend and will be available for a retail price of $250.
