The Air Jordan 41 Adds Another Numbered Silhouette to the Jumpman Legacy

Jordan Brand has the kind of consistency rarely seen in any corner of the business world, never mind the sneaker industry. Jordan has more than double the signature silhouettes than there are iPhone models, and who knows if those will last another 23. Starting with the Air Jordan 1 in 1985, Michael Jordan has released a new signature shoe for the past 40 years. Make that 41.

The Next Chapter of the Jumpman Legacy

The Air Jordan 41 surfaced out of the blue this week in three mockups on GOAT, giving us a first look at the next pair in Jordan’s legendary line. The lateral profile previews show a futuristic new silhouette with a high ankle bootie and a swooping side panel that hangs a one-piece, stretchy soft fabric running across the toebox to either side panel. In addition to a traditional lace panel, a pulley at the back of the ankle controls the fit.

The first three colorways of the new shoe all arrive with a black ankle bootie and tongue, but switch the one-piece upper between grey, light blue, and vibrant yellow. The grey and the blue pairs both add icy blue outsoles, but the yellow pair keeps it sunny with more golden yellow underfoot.

Air Jordan 41 Release Details

The Air Jordan 41 will be released sometime in August 2026 through Nike and select Jordan retailers in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $205. For all the latest Air Jordan news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
