Sneaker enthusiasts can look forward to a series of new Air Jordan models and collaborations launching throughout 2026. Retailers have updated their calendars with specific dates, colorways, and prices for these drops. The lineup includes retro styles and special editions from brands like Levi's and Swarovski.
The Air Jordan brand, created by Nike in 1985 for basketball legend Michael Jordan, continues to blend performance footwear with cultural appeal. The first Air Jordan 1, designed by Peter Moore, featured a bold red and black colorway that violated NBA uniform rules, resulting in $5,000 fines per game for Jordan. This controversy propelled the shoe to instant success, selling out quickly and establishing the line's iconic status. Over the years, models like the Air Jordan 3, 4, 5, 6, and 11 have become staples, with annual releases incorporating unique designs inspired by Jordan's career. The brand has expanded into apparel and accessories, featuring collaborations such as the 2017 Off-White partnership that reimagined the Air Jordan 1.
For 2026, the release calendar highlights several anticipated drops starting in February. On February 25, the Levi's x Air Jordan 3 Retro SP "Rigid" in Denim/Black/Sail (style IH7959-400) will retail for $230.
