Jordan Brand may as well be Santa Claus, the way it makes sneakerheads look forward to December each year.
The holiday slate of Air Jordans will come to a head in the month ahead via two high-profile collaborations from A Ma Maniére and SoleFly, as well as a slate of in-house colorways old and new. Coming from the old camp will be the Air Jordan 11 “Gamma,” which takes the spot in Jordan Brand’s tradition of retros for the model each holiday season. Among those in the new camp will be new Air Jordan 1 and Air Jordan 5 editions, and that’s just some of what to expect in December.
Below, you’ll find every Air Jordan release planned for December. This post will be updated as any new information becomes available.
Air Jordan 1 High “Sail”
Release Date: Dec. 1
Price: $185
SKU: IH4363-100
Color is dialed down on this new Air Jordan 1 colorway as it makes use of the Air Jordan 3’s signature elephant print.
Air Jordan 11 “China”
Release Date: Dec. 1
Price: TBD
SKU: IM8352-670
Expect this brand-new Air Jordan 11 from the sneaker’s 30th anniversary collection to remain exclusive to the country that gives it its name.
Air Jordan 40 “Bordeaux”
Release Date: Dec. 1
Price: $205
SKU: HM9932-601
The use of namesake color on the Air Jordan 7 “Bordeaux” is kept to a minimum, but the same can’t be said of the Air Jordan 40 that pays tribute to it.
Air Jordan 5 “Paris St. Germain”
Release Date: Dec. 3
Price: $215
SKU: HQ3004-001
PSG’s logo takes over the netting window on the Air Jordan 5, and the stands of Parc des Princes feature on the insole on the French football club’s latest pair of Js.

The expected release date for SoleFly’s unofficial Air Jordan 3 tribute to “The U” comes with a major caveat, as it could be pushed back because of the theft of a shipment of the sneakers in early November.
