We’re not even midway through 2025, but Jordan Brand has already teased some of the coolest releases coming in 2026. It looks like there is no slowing down the house that Michael Jordan built. Here are the top 10 best Air Jordan sneakers releasing in 2026 (that we know of so far).

Air Jordan 1 High ‘Cool Grey’

Jordan Brand’s Spring 2026 roster has a new Air Jordan 1 High “Cool Grey” colourway in store for sneakerheads. Sneakerheads can anticipate “Cool Grey” overlays set against a clean “White” backdrop, with a dark “Black” hue accenting elements like the collar, Swoosh and laces. “Game Royal” tongue tags provide a splash of colour to the mix, while “Metallic Gold” accents keep everything looking classy. See more details on the Air Jordan 1 High ‘Cool Grey’.

Teyana Taylor x Air Jordan 3

Teyana Taylor is releasing a special Jordan 3 that builds on her previous Jordan 1 CMFT collaboration with Jordan Brand. Unlike Teyana’s 2023 Jordan 1 CMFT design, this sneaker boasts a darker overall aesthetic, with a black upper and details in Fir, Fire Red, Victory Green, Cement Grey, and Metallic Gold tones. The real showstopper, however, is the removable rose vines that wrap around the silhouette, seamlessly fitting into the collab’s theme and bringing a distinctive twist to the classic Air Jordan 3 style. See more details on the Teyana Taylor x Air Jordan 3.

Levi’s x Air Jordan 3

Jordan Brand’s 2026 spring collection has added a denim-clad Levi’s x Air Jordan 3 collaboration to the lineup. A Denim, Black, and Sail colour palette is expected for the shoe, with Levi’s distinctive red tab on the side for an extra special touch. The denim-clad collaboration will reportedly release in spring 2026. See more details on the Levi’s x Air Jordan 3.

Air Jordan 4 “Flight Club”

The Jumpman Label is adding a special “Flight Club” inspired Air Jordan 4 design to its Spring 2026 sneaker roster. This new colourway was revealed by footwear insiders zSneakerHeadz and Sneaker Files, confirming a stylish pairing of “University Red”, “Black”, and “Sail” across the AJ4’s construction. The colour combo is reportedly inspired by the Flight Club membership programme, which proved popular among Jordan fans in the late ’80s and early ’90s. See more details on the Air Jordan 4 “Flight Club”.

Air Jordan 5 “Wolf Grey”

Jordan Brand intends to bring back the Air Jordan 5 “Wolf Grey” in 2026, fifteen years after it debuted in 2011. Upon its return, expect the same premium nubuck upper in soft grey, with reflective silver accents on the tongue and midsole. The trademark “23” embroidery on the heel and smoky gum outsole round out the legendary design of this much-anticipated edition. See more details on the Air Jordan 5 “Wolf Grey”.

Air Jordan 6 Low “Blackout”

The “Blackout” AJ6 colourway is one of the many highly anticipated sneakers added to Jordan Brand’s Spring 2026 lineup. Whether you’re hoping for plush black nubuck uppers for an extra luxurious touch or a sleek leather style—something akin to a low-top version of Batman’s all-black custom AJ6s from Tim Burton’s 1989 film—this “Blackout” release is sure to be well worth the wait. Too bad these kicks will only be available in women’s sizes, gents. See more details on the Air Jordan 6 Low “Blackout”.

Air Jordan 6 Premio “BIN 23”

Jordan Brand plans to introduce a luxurious Air Jordan 6 “Bin 23” model in 2026, adding to its high-end BIN 23 series. So, what can we expect from 2026’s AJ 6 design? Well, the insiders have revealed an Off Noir and Picante Red colour palette, but nothing regarding the materials or finishing touches is known at this time. But given that previous releases have consistently exceeded expectations in terms of quality and design, we’re hoping for something absolutely exceptional with the upcoming BIN 23 Air Jordan 6.

Air Jordan 9 “Flint Grey”

The stylish Air Jordan 9 “Flint Grey” colourway (also known as the French Blue 9s) will make a welcomed return in 2026. The upcoming release is set to stay true to the timeless 2002 design, featuring white tumbled leather uppers, sleek Flint Grey mudguards, and French Blue accents on the branding, tongue tip, and eyelets. The design is further enhanced by a glossy grey midsole and a pristine white outsole, with additional pops of blue on the Jumpman logos at the heel. See more details on the Air Jordan 9 ‘Flint Grey’.

Air Jordan 10 “Hydrangeas”

The often overlooked Air Jordan 10 model is expected to release in a special new “Hydrangeas” colourway in Spring of next year. The sneaker is reportedly draped in Chalk, Hydrangea, and Wild Grape hues. The shoe is expected to feature an off-white tumbled leather upper with a dark purple textile wrapped around the eyestays, tongue, and heel. The purple touches continue on the sole unit, which features MJ’s career highlights in a delicate purple shade. See more details on the Air Jordan 10 “Hydrangeas”.

Fragment Design x Union LA x Air Jordan 1

Jordan Brand, Fragment Design, and Union LA are planning another colourway for their Air Jordan 1 collaboration. Hiroshi was seen sporting the reported second colourway of his impending collaboration with Union LA and Jordan at an art event in Seoul, South Korea. The sneaker’s upper is primarily white, with black accents on the collar, Swoosh, heel, and toe. See more details on the Fragment Design x Union LA x Air Jordan 1.
