Additional images of the forthcoming Air Jordan 10 Rio are provided, as the model is essentially a tribute to the upcoming Summer 2016 Olympics which will be held in Rio de Janeiro.

Sporting a clean wolf grey hue across its pebbled leather upper, the light shade is offset by obsidian accents gracing the eye stays, inner lining, laces, tongue and rubber sole unit. To further symbolize the South American country, the outsole flaunts a mixture of yellow, green and blue tones to evoke the country’s flag, in addition to an embroidery of the nation located across its collar.

This latest variation of the silhouette is expected to retail for $190 and suggested to drop at select JB and Nike accounts on May 7th.

Stay tuned in to KicksOnFire for additional details.

Author’s Take

I’m generally a fan of this silhouette. The theme and homage to Brazil is a cool gesture, but I’m not really feeling this colorway. It should still garner some attention obviously.
