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 31 best Air Jordan sneakers releasing in 2026 (that we know of so far).
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 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 6 “Reverse Infrared
The “Reverse Infrared” Air Jordan 6 colourway is expected to release in 2026. The colour blocking is similar to the Infrared AJ 6, but features red “Nike Air” branding on the heel and a colour switch on the midsole. The design samples for this colourway debuted in 1999, but the sneakers were never released to the public.
Air Jordan 4 OG “Imperial Purple”
Jordan Brand is dipping into its purple paint bucket for a new AJ 4 colourway. The palette is also expected to include yellow accents for a Lakers-inspired vibe. Look for this drop in early 2026 for $225 USD. Find out more about the Air Jordan 4 “Imperial Purple”.
Air Jordan 13 “Chicago”

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 “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”.

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 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.
