Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Bred”

Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Bred”

The infamous “Bred” Air Jordan 1 colourway makes a long awaited return in an original ’85 cut. While the “Banned” make-up has been recently retro'd in both a Flyknit and Satin version, it has been almost a decade since sneakerheads got their hands on a leather edition.

The infamous “Bred” Air Jordan 1 colourway makes a long awaited return in an original ’85 cut. While the “Banned” make-up has been recently retro'd in both a Flyknit and Satin version, it has been almost a decade since sneakerheads got their hands on a leather edition. As the 2016 edition of the black and red Jordan 1 reach eye-watering prices or have since become 'rotation beaters', people are more than happy to see the announcement of this Air Jordan 1 High 85 “Bred”.

Boasting a thicker profile on the Swoosh and a higher ankle collar, this will be the closest many purists will get to owning something akin to the original ’85 versions. If the previous retros such as the “Metallic Burgundy” and “Neutral Grey” are anything to go by, then you should expect a longer break-in period thanks to the thicker cut of leather. Jordan Brand has also spent a huge amount of money getting the midsole as close to the '85 version, taking off millimeters off here and there to please even the most dedicated of collectors.

Althought the shoe is dropping in the standard red and black AJ1 open lid box, the outside is finished in a semi matte to give this version an extra special feel to the unoxing experience. In the meantime it might be worth trying on another 'Jordan 1 '85 edition when you get the chance so you can find out if they fit true to size or not.

The Bred 85s will be dropping for a retail of £185 like the rest of the Reimagined AJ1 editions on the 14th of February 2025 to coincide with All Star weekend.

Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game”

Air Jordan 1 High ’85 “Bred”

Named after one of Michael Jordan’s greatest NBA Finals performances, the Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game” 2025 represents overcoming adversity. The legendary moment happened in Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals when MJ, who appeared visibly struggling and exhausted before the match started, led the Chicago Bulls past the Utah Jazz by scoring 38 poin

Named after one of Michael Jordan’s greatest NBA Finals performances, the Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game” 2025 represents overcoming adversity. The legendary moment happened in Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Finals when MJ, who appeared visibly struggling and exhausted before the match started, led the Chicago Bulls past the Utah Jazz by scoring 38 points and playing 44 minutes. This ultimately led to the Bulls’ fifth championship after closing the series in the following meeting.

Undoubtedly the stuff of legend, the Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game” has cemented its history in streetwear and basketball. This iteration remains faithful to Chicago’s signature uniforms, decked out in a black premium leather base with a red faux lizard skin mudguard. Stitched panels on the upper draw inspiration from the Japanese flag Nisshoki, mimicking sun rays. Embroidered Jumpman logos adorn the tongue, complementing the “Two3” label as a nod to MJ’s jersey. Encased underfoot is a full-length Zoom Air unit, the first silhouette to utilise this springy cushioning setup for enhanced. Rigid carbon fibre provides arch support, whilst herringbone pods on the outsole deliver reliable traction on and off the hardwood.

The Air Jordan 4 OG undergoes a vibrant rework in this brand-new “Brick By Brick” rendition for Spring 2025. Hot on the heels of its 35th anniversary, this timeless basketball sneaker has remained at the forefront of the brand’s most popular retro offerings, with most styles often flying off the shelves. Thanks to the 'Special Projects' titling on these Firewood Orange AJ4s, you can expect a similar level of quality to the "Premium Ginger" edition from a few years back, a subtle favourite among Jordan heads.

This Air Jordan 4 Retro sets up a fiery colour scheme, decked out in a bright orange leather upper. Burgundy accents highlight the netting, rubberised heel, and TPU lace cage to form a stark colour contrast. Jumpman logos decorate the Flight tongue tag, sockliners, and rear, replacing the classic Nike Air label that carries more prestige because of its affinity to OG colourways. A visible bubble in the heel provides ample shock absorption and cushioning, a setup tried and tested by the GOAT. Sail tones add a neutral flavour to the mix, breaking up the warm colour palette. Herringbone patterns ensure long-lasting traction on and off the pavement.

Nike SB x Air Jordan 4 “Navy”

After the success of the Nike SB x Air Jordan 4 “Pine Green”, it was only a matter of time before another colourway was announced by Jordan Brand. With Nike updating the basketball classic with skate-friendly tooling, it only made sense for the Swoosh to take full advantage of the update. It looks like the “Navy” or "Saphire" edition head

After the success of the Nike SB x Air Jordan 4 “Pine Green”, it was only a matter of time before another colourway was announced by Jordan Brand. With Nike updating the basketball classic with skate-friendly tooling, it only made sense for the Swoosh to take full advantage of the update. It looks like the “Navy” or "Saphire" edition heads towards a familiar direction, keeping the white leather and gum bottom combination that was such a hit with both sneakerheads and skaters alike. Are you grabbing the "Navy" SB AJ4 or are you passing? Let us know!

The new “Sapphire” SB x Air Jordan 4 arrives with the improved shape, the sharper toe box a huge hit among OG fans of the silhouette. The rubber wings and heel tab will also return, giving the pair a different tactile feel that not only lends to skating but also helps improve comfort. The major difference comes via the hits of blue that replace the previous pine green accents. Overall, sneakerheads are more familiar with this “Sapphire” colour palette considering the lineage of blue editions of the Air Jordan 4 such as the “Military Blue” from 2012 and the “Motorsport Blue” 2017 colourway.

We expect the Nike SB Jordan 4 "Navy" to drop with a standard sail Nike SB box like the first edition, with a solid chance of these not coming with an extra set of laces either. We will confirm at a later date but if this colourway is anything like the previous "Pine Green" AJ4 then you should go with your standard Nike sizing.

A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 OG SP "For The Love"

Titled “For The Love”, this limited-edition A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 OG SP “White Black Blue” embraces empowering storytelling and Parisian-inspired flair. This latest campaign between Nike and James Whitner’s Atlanta-based streetwear boutique highlights the power of unity, joy, and passion that fuels our lives to overcome all odds. Ex

Titled “For The Love”, this limited-edition A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 3 OG SP “White Black Blue” embraces empowering storytelling and Parisian-inspired flair. This latest campaign between Nike and James Whitner’s Atlanta-based streetwear boutique highlights the power of unity, joy, and passion that fuels our lives to overcome all odds. Exclusively dropping on A Ma Maniére, this limited-edition AJ3 is a must-have for collectors and sneakerheads.

This “For The Love” edition features a pristine white leather base with black hairy suede overlays on the toe, eyestay, heel, and collar. A diffused blue “Nike Air” label decorates the TPU rear panel as a nod to the OG, while the Jumpman and “A” logos adorn the tongue to celebrate another profound project from the two brands. The back tabs display a hidden text that reads “You have to be comfortable walking alone, all we have is each other”, a message that resonates with the silhouette’s theme. The quilted lining and insoles provide a premium touch to the timeless basketball sneaker from ‘89, similar to the “Raised By Women” and “While You Were Sleeping” renditions. A sail tone envelops the polyurethane midsole for a vintage aesthetic, while the visible Air unit offers ample cushioning underfoot. This pair includes exclusive hang tags, additional cream laces, and an elegant AMM shoe box to complete the premium package.

Air Jordan 4 White Cement 2025

Hailed as a grail colourway by long-time collectors, the iconic Air Jordan 4 “White Cement 2025" joins the high-heat 40th-anniversary roster. This beloved rendition is one of the four OG styles from ‘89, known for its fresh, neutral-toned colour scheme deemed as a worthy successor to a similar AJ3 colourway.

Hailed as a grail colourway by long-time collectors, the iconic Air Jordan 4 “White Cement 2025" joins the high-heat 40th-anniversary roster. This beloved rendition is one of the four OG styles from ‘89, known for its fresh, neutral-toned colour scheme deemed as a worthy successor to a similar AJ3 colourway.

This legendary Jordan 4 boasts a crisp white leather upper with plastic netting on the sidewalls and black TPU lace cages. The grey midsole, TPU heel, and rubberised support wings have been covered in black speckles, producing the signature paint splatter utilised on the shoe box. Nike Air branding on the rear embraces the silhouette's OG specifications, whilst the red Jumpman logo on the tongue stands out atop the predominantly greyscale palette. Visible Air cushioning in the heel delivers ample shock absorption, finished by a herringbone rubber sole.

Air Jordan 3 OG “Seoul 2.0”

Jordan Brand returns to South Korea to unveil the Air Jordan 3 “Seoul 2.0”, the sequel to the highly coveted 2018 edition. The sportswear giant has been actively celebrating the East Asian nation’s diverse culture and heritage, with notable styles like the Nike “Hangul Day” collection nodding to the country’s rich history.

Jordan Brand returns to South Korea to unveil the Air Jordan 3 “Seoul 2.0”, the sequel to the highly coveted 2018 edition. The sportswear giant has been actively celebrating the East Asian nation’s diverse culture and heritage, with notable styles like the Nike “Hangul Day” collection nodding to the country’s rich history. Inspired by the Taegeukgi, or the South Korean flag, this AJ3 presents a pre-aged design for a summer-ready approach.

This "Seoul 2.0" colourway boasts a pristine white leather upper with muted grey suede overlays to subdue the elephant print. Unlike the original "Seoul" 2018 edition, the midsole is given a vintage treatment as a way of separating the two releases. Now whether sneakerheads will be labelling these the "Reimagined Seoul" AJ3s is good as anyone's guess, but just because it has aged detailing doesn't necessarily mean it deserves the reimagined name. An embroidered Taegeukgi decorates the tongue, complementing the blue and red accents on the inner lining and collar. The Nike Air branding on the rear and orange hang tag embraces OG details from ‘89. A visible heel Air bubble provides adequate cushioning underfoot, propped up by a durable rubber outsole.

Air Jordan 12 “Melo”

The Air Jordan 12 “Melo” pays homage to NBA legend Carmelo Anthony who signed with Jordan Brand during his rookie season. Before earning his signature line, Melo rocked several Air Jordan retro models early in his career, with this being one of the most popular in his arsenal.

The Air Jordan 12 “Melo” pays homage to NBA legend Carmelo Anthony who signed with Jordan Brand during his rookie season. Before earning his signature line, Melo rocked several Air Jordan retro models early in his career, with this being one of the most popular in his arsenal. This 2025 version marks the first-ever retro release of the colourway after debuting in 2004, making it a must-have pair for Carmelo’s fans and avid basketball sneaker collectors.

Draped in the Denver Nuggets colours, this AJ12 boasts a clean white leather upper with a faux reptile texture on the mudguard. Light blue hues envelop the inner lining and rubber outsole, whilst metallic silver accents on the topmost eyelets elevate the two-tone colour scheme. The iconic Jumpman logo decorates the tongue and sockliners, complementing the branding on the heel pull tab. Full-length Zoom Air technology delivers maximum cushioning and bounce, propped up by a rigid carbon fibre shank plate and herringbone sole offering stability and excellent traction.

Air Jordan 3 OG “Rare Air”

Set to be a standout release this summer, the Air Jordan 3 OG "Rare Air" introduces a bold new colourway to the iconic AJ3 silhouette. Dressed in a palette of Black, Military Blue, and Chile Red, this iteration mixes nubuck and leather across the upper for a premium feel.

Set to be a standout release this summer, the Air Jordan 3 OG "Rare Air" introduces a bold new colourway to the iconic AJ3 silhouette. Dressed in a palette of Black, Military Blue, and Chile Red, this iteration mixes nubuck and leather across the upper for a premium feel. The details of this shoe really make it, particularly the right shoe's heel tab features a reversed Nike Air logo, adding a unique touch to the design.​

Underfoot, an aged Coconut Milk midsole houses the signature Air cushioning, delivering both comfort and a vintage aesthetic. A Grey rubber outsole completes the look, ensuring traction and durability.​


Air Jordan 5 OG “Grape”

The fan-favourite Air Jordan 5 “Grape” returns in 2025 to celebrate the iconic basketball sneaker’s 35th anniversary. Although MJ never rocked this OG colourway in an NBA game, most fans recognise the beloved “Grape” thanks to a 1991 Wheaties cereal box and the hit American television sitcom “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” starring Will Smi

The fan-favourite Air Jordan 5 “Grape” returns in 2025 to celebrate the iconic basketball sneaker’s 35th anniversary. Although MJ never rocked this OG colourway in an NBA game, most fans recognise the beloved “Grape” thanks to a 1991 Wheaties cereal box and the hit American television sitcom “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” starring Will Smith.

This fresh AJ5 features a crisp white leather upper with clear plastic netting on the sidewalls for breathability. The emerald green Jumpman logo graces the purple tongue, complementing the upside-down “Air Jordan” branding on the inner portion. An embroidered “‘Nike Air” adorns the rear, one of the OG details that purists and avid sneaker collectors love. Inspired by a World War II fighter jet, the aggressive shark teeth decorate the lateral forefoot. The plush padding around the collar appears slimmer than the past versions to match the OG shape, whilst the lace lock and TPU eyelets stay true to form. The polyurethane midsole carries a visible Air unit in the heel, shored up by an icy translucent rubber outsole.

Air Jordan 3 “Pure Money”

Another Air Jordan 3 banger returns to the shelves as the sportswear giant celebrates the Air Jordan line’s 40th anniversary. Originally launched in 2007, the Air Jordan 3 “Pure Money” was a colourway born during the peak of Jordan retros.

Another Air Jordan 3 banger returns to the shelves as the sportswear giant celebrates the Air Jordan line’s 40th anniversary. Originally launched in 2007, the Air Jordan 3 “Pure Money” was a colourway born during the peak of Jordan retros. Similar to the stealthy “Black Cat” make-up, this colourway is a favourite among AJ3 die hards and a retro people are happy to see since the "Pure White" retro in 2018. Either way, this Jordan 3 "Pure Money" is a clean option for the rotation.

This fresh AJ3 boasts a crisp white leather upper with chromed-out eyelets and silver Jumpman logos on the tongue and TPU heel panel. Embroidered “Pure $” labels hide underneath the back tabs to align with the theme. Elephant print overlays cover the toe and rear, a trademark detail that inspired the subtle graphics on the laces. The PU midsole carries an exposed Air unit for ample shock absorption. Stars, pivot circles, and wide flex grooves construct the outsole for excellent traction on and off the court.

Air Jordan 8 “Aqua”

Throwing it back to the 1993 NBA All-Star Game, the Air Jordan 8 “Aqua” returns in 2025 to commemorate the franchise’s 40th anniversary. Despite never being worn by MJ in the regular season, this OG colourway has been one of the most fascinating styles in the roster, revered for its unique colour combination that matches the Eastern Confe

Throwing it back to the 1993 NBA All-Star Game, the Air Jordan 8 “Aqua” returns in 2025 to commemorate the franchise’s 40th anniversary. Despite never being worn by MJ in the regular season, this OG colourway has been one of the most fascinating styles in the roster, revered for its unique colour combination that matches the Eastern Conference squad’s ASG jerseys. This edition marks its fourth release following its last appearance in 2015, adding to the must-have pairs in Jordan Brand’s launch calendar.

This attention-grabbing AJ8 “Aqua” features a black nubuck upper with dark grey suede layers on the eyestay, collar, and rear.

Plush chenille fabrics construct the multicolour Jumpman logo on the tongue, whilst the subtle “23” and “Air Jordan” labels nod to Mike’s legacy. The heel inner bootie and innovative cross straps keep your foot locked in and stable. Nike Air units on the forefoot and rear deliver responsive cushioning, propped up by a segmented rubber outsole with dimpled traction patterns.

Everyone's talking about how 2025 will be a massive year for the Jordan Brand, with a lineup that’s making sneakerheads drool.

Alongside the Cave Stone and the SB Sapphire, we'll be getting another Air Jordan 4, the "Rare Air." Decisions, decisions! Time to start a sneaker savings fund!


This upcoming AJ4 sports a mix of Black, Fire Red, Deep Royal Blue, Dark Smoke Grey, and Tech Grey. These kicks will have a black nubuck base with dark grey details around the toe. Blue accents show up on parts of the midsole, the liner, and the heel tabs. We're digging the dusty finish on the mudguard and the visible contrast stitching gives it a vintage look, completed by aged off-white midsole accents.

New York-based streetwear brand Awake NY reunites with Jordan Brand for an exclusive footwear and apparel collection starring the AJ5. The limited collaboration coincides with the 35th anniversary of the legendary basketball shoe designed by Tinker Hatfield, whose creativity and revolutionary concepts aligned with MJ’s aggressive play style. Showcased by founder and Queens native Angelo Baque, the Awake NY x Air Jordan 5 OG SP “Black Racer Blue” presents a revamped makeover inspired by the New York fashion scene.

This fresh AJ5 flaunts a blacked-out leather upper with a white contrast stitching to highlight the silhouette’s bulky frame. Awake’s signature “A” script forms the translucent plastic netting on the quarter, which shines atop the dark backdrop. The embroidered “23” and “NY” decorate the lateral rear sections, complementing the blue Nike Air branding on the back. The logo on the silver reflective tongue combines Awake NY and the Jumpman to celebrate the growing partnership. The translucent lace toggle provides an adjustable fit, while the padded collar and inner lining add comfort around the ankles. White speckles animate the blue shark teeth on the midsole for a pop of colour. An exposed Air unit appears on the heel for ample cushioning and shock absorption. To deliver traction, the outsole incorporates icy herringbone sections on the forefoot and rear.

Jordan Brand takes it iconic Air Jordan 4 down an earth-inspired direction that has Travis Scott fans doing a serious double take. Rumours of the Jordan 4 “Cave Stone” snapped necks as sneakerheads look to secure a colourway eerily similar to the Travis Scott x Air Jordan 4 “Cactus Jack” edition that only saw a friends & family release. Now this “Cave Stone” make-up will provide a happy alternative for that highly elusive shoe, so is brown Jordan 4 a must-cop in your books?

Based in a similar palette to the “Taupe Haze” edition from ’21, the darker brown shade is a winning combination when added to the fourth silhouette in the Jordan series. Kitted out in a smooth suede or nubuck upper, the two shades of brown complement the AJ4’s timeless panelling. Black detailing across the midsole, support wings and side netting plays well to the cave stone’s muted hues while ensuring that this colourway still has a solid forty yard read.

Air Jordan 5 Fire Red “Black Tongue”

Jordan Brand is gearing up for an epic year thanks to a killer lineup of releases for 2025. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, there's news that the Air Jordan 5 'Fire Red' which originally dropped in 1990 is making a comeback for its 35th anniversary.

Jordan Brand is gearing up for an epic year thanks to a killer lineup of releases for 2025. Just when you thought it couldn't get any better, there's news that the Air Jordan 5 'Fire Red' which originally dropped in 1990 is making a comeback for its 35th anniversary.

According to sneaker pundit zSneakerHeadz, the highly anticipated retro is confirmed for a release in Fall 2025. The “Fire Red” Air Jordan 5 is one of the four original colourways to drop back in 1990, along with "Grape", “Black Metallic” and “White Metallic”. Staying true to the version that Michael Jordan rocked on court, this OG retro features his #23 stitched on the heel.


The “Fire Red” Air Jordan 5 was retro'd for the first time in 2006, then again in 2013 and even returned as a low cut version in 2016. Despite all the re-releases, it has never been reissued with a "Nike Air" on the heel, a detail heavily reveered within the Jordan community. Moreover, previous releases had altered the font on the embroidered "23" on the heel, an important detail we expect to return on the OG in the 2025 release.

Air Jordan 5 “Tokyo”

Jordan Brand opens the vault once more as another grail sneaker returns for the first time.

Jordan Brand opens the vault once more as another grail sneaker returns for the first time. Headlining the Autumn ‘25 roster, the Air Jordan 5 Retro “Tokyo” expands the high-heat lineup celebrating the 35th anniversary of the AJ5, joining classic styles and exclusive collaborations in the pipeline. This limited-edition pair debuted in 2011 to commemorate the opening of the Jordan Tokyo 23 boutique in Japan, a tribute to MJ’s prominence not only in the US but also in Asia. Considered precious to many collectors, this non-OG colourway is a dream come true for longtime sneakerheads.

Inspired by the Japanese capital’s vibrant lifestyle, this AJ5 features a bright yellow suede upper with a translucent plastic netting on the mesh sidewalls for breathability. An embroidered “23” appears on the lateral rear in kanji form to honour the country’s cultures, a familiar detail if you had the “What The” iteration. The signature Jumpman logo adorns the rear and silver reflective tongue, while a “23” graphic animates the sockliner as a nod to the GOAT’s legendary jersey number. The innovative lace toggle and padded collars deliver a secure, supportive fit to bring out your A game on and off the court. Black speckles decorate the yellow shark teeth on the midsole to elevate the silhouette’s design further. A visible Air unit rests on the heel for adequate cushioning, shored up by icy herringbone traction patterns on the outsole.

The 40th anniversary of Michael Jordan’s legendary signature line is shaping up to be a milestone celebration, with 2025 promising an array of unforgettable releases. Alongside the highly anticipated Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 4, the Air Jordan 11 "Rare Air" will take centre stage as part of this commemorative collection.

The 40th anniversary of Michael Jordan’s legendary signature line is shaping up to be a milestone celebration, with 2025 promising an array of unforgettable releases. Alongside the highly anticipated Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 4, the Air Jordan 11 "Rare Air" will take centre stage as part of this commemorative collection.

First teased in October, sneaker insider @zsneakerheadz has since revealed key updates as we count down to its much anticipated Holiday 2025 debut.


The latest concept art for the Air Jordan 11 “Rare Air” showcases refined colour blocking that elevates the classic design. The shoe features a striking Deep Royal Blue patent leather mudguard, contrasted by a crisp white leather upper. Fire Red accents adorn the Jumpman logo and branding, while the signature “JORDAN” lettering along the eyelets pays homage to the unreleased Air Jordan 11 “DMP” sample from 2006; a design that later inspired the Air Jordan 11 “Jubilee” in 2020. Finishing touches include a milky white translucent outsole, adding a timeless aesthetic.


The “Rare Air” collection extends to the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 4, creating a cohesive lineup unified by a striking colour palette of Deep Royal Blue, Fire Red, Sail, Black, and Muslin.

Air Jordan 12 “Taxi”

The Air Jordan 12 “Taxi” is rumored to return in 2025, making its long-awaited return.

The Air Jordan 12 “Taxi” is rumored to return in 2025, making its long-awaited return.

Originally released in 1996, the fan-favorite colorway, which features a stark contrast of black and white, was Michael Jordan’s go-to during the Chicago Bulls’ 1996-97 season, cementing its status in NBA history. Jordan notably laced up the “Taxi” during the Bulls’ championship run, etching the sneaker into the memories of fans and sneakerheads alike.

Designed by Tinker Hatfield, the Air Jordan 12 drew inspiration from 19th-century dress boots and the Japanese Rising Sun flag. The “Taxi” colorway, with its clean white leather upper, black mudguard, and gold accents, perfectly blends luxury with performance —synonymous with the Air Jordan legacy. The colorway’s nickname comes from the yellow-hued accents on the outsole that resemble the iconic New York City taxi cabs, a subtle nod that resonated with sneaker culture.


Over the years, the “Taxi” has seen several retro releases, each time reviving its allure. The most notable came in 2008 as part of the Countdown Pack alongside the “Bred” Air Jordan 11. In 2013, Jordan Brand brought the “Taxi” back as a standalone retro, further fueling demand and nostalgia. In 2021, the brand used the “Taxi” story as the base for the “Royalty” Air Jordan 12 added a more regal look with an extra addition of gold. However, it left fans wanting the OG “Taxi” colorway.

A new-aged classic is returning as the Air Jordan 4 “Black Cat” is rumored for 2025.

Originally released in 2006, the stealthy all-black Air Jordan 4 became a must-have for Jordan enthusiasts, sneaker collectors, and fashion-forward individuals. The “Black Cat” nickname derived from Michael Jordan’s sleek, elusive playing style, which inspired the clean, monochromatic colorway. The nickname and corresponding colorway have been a staple since the early 2000s as the “Black Cat” Air Jordan 3 was released in 2007 and is rumored to release in 2025.


The 2020 retro of the “Black Cat” Air Jordan 4 arrived at an interesting time for the Air Jordan 4. The all-black colorway sat at retailers and some pairs even made their way to outlets with discounted prices. The pandemic and the Jordan boom that followed The Last Dance led to the rise in popularity of the colorway, skyrocketing demand & aftermarket prices.

Now, the Air Jordan 4 “Black Cat” will make another appearance to meet the demands set by the 2020 version. Although details of the 2025 version are scarce, the pair is expected to arrive in its signature monochromatic build with premium nubuck materials

One of the most iconic non-OG Air Jordan 11 colourways returns for the first time to celebrate the model’s 30th anniversary. Headlining the brand’s annual holiday tradition, this Air Jordan 11 “Gamma Blue” 2025 showcases a revamped shape to replicate the OG cut.

Luxury streetwear label Off-White preserves the creative influence of its late founder Virgil Abloh with a fourth Air Jordan 1 High collaboration. Known for its deliberately deconstructed design, this continuation of the highly coveted project between the Milan-based imprint and the Swoosh will celebrate the silhouette's 40th anniversary, adding to the chock-full release calendar. This Off-White x Air Jordan 1 High OG 2025 pays homage to a sample pair revealed by Abloh in 2020, later displayed at the ICA Boston exhibit the following year. Also dubbed the "Alaska" Off-White AJ1, this pair is in fact different from the previous 2018 version.

The limited-edition sneaker features an all-white makeover crafted in premium leather with exposed foam layers on the vamp, quarter, and collars. This intentional material execution makes for a flawless vintage transformation, shifting away from what was once a clean white-on-white palette similar to the “REVEALING” concept of “THE TEN” collection in 2017. An oversized Swoosh graces the lateral sidewall, stitched onto the dangling forefoot overlay and leather foxing to fulfil its deconstructed aesthetic. The grey Jordan Wings emblem adorns the ankle, offset by an “85” label on the interior. Notable text placements like the “AIR” on the midsole, “SHOELACES” on the shoe strings, and co-branded labels on the medial section stay true to form.

A classic is rumored to return in 2025 as the Air Jordan 8 “Bugs Bunny” is expected to release later this year.

Originally released in 1993, the Air Jordan 8 is forever linked to Michael Jordan’s dominance on the court during the Chicago Bulls’ first three-peat era and his off-court presence in the world of entertainment.

Sporting a white, black, and red colorway, the “Bugs Bunny” iteration of the Air Jordan 8 stands out with its crisscrossing straps, making it an instantly recognizable silhouette. The design was bold for its time, taking cues from 1990s aesthetics, while the playful nickname pays homage to Jordan’s partnership with Warner Bros. for Space Jam. The sneaker earned the “Bugs Bunny” moniker due to its promotional campaign featuring the animated icon, adding to its cultural significance.


The “Bugs Bunny” Air Jordan 8 made a return during the 2003 and 2013 retros, reviving the nostalgia of the original while introducing the sneaker to new generations of fans. The releases re-ignited the shoe’s popularity, solidifying its status as a must-have for collectors and casual wearers alike. Now, the colorway will release for the first time in over a decade adding to its legacy.

Beyond the hardwood, the Air Jordan 8 “Bugs Bunny” became a staple in pop culture, with its appearances in music videos, movies, and on the feet of celebrities. The sneaker’s influence transcends basketball, becoming a symbol of ’90s culture that remains relevant today. It has solidified its place not only as a classic Jordan silhouette but also as a piece of cultural history.
