Holiday releases from Jordan Brand tend to be among the most eagerly awaited releases of the year. Beautiful sneakers like the Air Jordan 11 “Legend Blue” and the Air Jordan 12 “Phantom” are among the special drops available this year in particular. Sadly, a number of the Jordan Holiday releases scheduled for 2024 have been cancelled this year. Let’s take a look at which pairs will no longer be available for purchase.
1. Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low “Pale Vanilla”
Sneakerheads had their sights set on this stunning LA Flame sneaker collab even though there were only rumours of a “Pale Vanilla” colourway arriving in 2024. Unfortunately, sneaker insiders claim that this pair is another one of the cancelled drops, with no word on when it might be released.
2. Air Jordan 5 “Black Cat”
The new Air Jordan 5 “Black Cat” colourway will be cancelled for the second time this year. Many fans were disappointed to learn in January that these stylish all-black sneakers would not be produced, and it appears that history is repeating itself with yet another cancellation. Of course, Jordan Brand never made the drop official. However, ideally, it will surface when the other “Black Cat” colourways become available in 2025.
3. Air Jordan 3 “Brown Cement”
In 2024, the “Brown Cement” colourway was supposed to be added to the storied Air Jordan 3 “Cement” releases. Nevertheless, fans can still anticipate the original “Black Cement” AJ3 to release in OG form this holiday season, even though we might not be receiving this promising new colourway this year.
4. Air Jordan 6 “Bred”
Jordan Brand was supposed to release a new colourway this holiday season that honoured the Jumpman’s “DMP Raptors” Air Jordan 7. Regretfully, the scheduled release date of the “Bred” AJ6 has been postponed. However, hopefully, we will see this colourway pop up in the future.
5. Air Jordan 1 Low ’85 “Mocha”
This mostly white colourway with hits of “Mocha” has been cancelled for the 2024 holiday season. Given the termination of La Flame’s collaborations on the model as well, this could be a sign of fewer Air Jordan 1 Low releases going forward. Time will tell, though.
6. Air Jordan 1 High “Olive”
Although it was rumoured that an Air Jordan 1 High would be released in the popular “Olive” colourway in 2024, it appears that those plans have been abandoned in the wake of several AJ1 releases being cancelled this holiday season.
7. Air Jordan 13 Low “Chutney”
The beloved Air Jordan 13 “Chutney” colourway, which debuted in 1998, was set to return in high-top form this year. Yet, despite fan excitement, the release date has been postponed indefinitely.
