Even though we’re still a fair bit away from the Summer Olympics, we’ve been given an early peek at the forthcoming Jordan Brand sneakers that are influenced by this monumental event. Among the early reveals is the Air Jordan 38 Low “Torch,” a tribute to the Paris 2024 Olympic logo, as well as the much-anticipated reissue of the Air Jordan 6 “Olympics.” But there’s more in store. The Jordan signature shoe line is all set to welcome a new addition explicitly designed for the ladies: the Air Jordan 6 Craft “Paris,” a grand gesture marking this exciting event.
What to Expect from the Air Jordan 6 Craft “Paris”
As the torch of the Paris 2024 Olympics will only be lit in July, we still have no official images of the upcoming Air Jordan 6 Craft “Paris.” However, in lieu of these, sneaker insiders @zsneakerheadz and Sole Retriever have whipped up some intriguing mockups to fuel our curiosity. These creative renditions are forecasted to closely mirror the actual product, barring a few minor differences. But we should remember that they are still speculative until we see actual images for ourselves.
However, the Air Jordan 6 Craft “Paris” is set to combine soft hues like “Pure Platinum,” “Glacier Blue,” and “Coconut Milk”, with hints of luxurious “Metallic Gold” for a stylish look.
The mockup designs suggest a strong presence of “Pure Platinum” across the base of the sneaker, complemented by tonal overlays, which may (or may not) give off a metallic sheen. The winning “Metallic Gold” hue is then weaved into distinctive elements like the lace locks, the Jumpman emblem gracing the tongue overlay, and, yet again, on the heel spoiler.

The final touches on the design include a “Pure Platinum” midsole and a “Glacier Blue” rubber outsole. However, the luxurious “Metallic Gold” has a reprised appearance in the middle section of the sole unit.
The choice of fabric isn’t confirmed, but given that this is a “Craft” series release, one can expect something different from the conventional Durabuck. There may also be a few other twists accompanying this release, so be sure to look out for actual images of the sneaker in the coming months.
Release Details
As for when we can expect the shoe to drop, the Air Jordan 6 Craft “Paris Olympics” will be released on August 7, 2024. This means sneakerheads will at least have the opportunity to sport these kicks before the Summer events conclude on August 11, 2024.
The kicks will be available on Nike.com and selected Jordan stockists in women’s sizes for a retail price of $200 USD. Despite being a women’s exclusive release, the good news is that they will also be available in preschool ($90) and toddler ($75) sizes.
