The Best Sneaker Drops from JD Sports January 2026

It’s a brand new year, and that means brand new sneakers to stay fresh for all of 2026. Kicking off the year on the right foot, figuratively and literally, is always easier with a few new pairs of retro Jordans and a new Tatum 4 colorway in the rotation. Luckily, JD Sports is ready to get you right for the new year.

From crisp Flight Club 4s to the return of the Flint 9, a Bulls colorway of the Tatum 4, and a low-top Air Jordan 1 in a classic Olive mix, January is already shaping up to be a busy month for sneaker hunting. Thankfully, we’ve already got the dates lined up for the drops, and JD is making them all easy to find… just make sure you get there fast, because these pairs will almost certainly sell out.

Below, we’ve included release dates and STATUS Exclusive Access info (if applicable) for each of our favorite sneakers dropping at JD Sports for the month of January.

Air Jordan 4 Retro Flight Club - 01/17/2026

Inspired by the Michael Jordan fan club from the 1980s and ‘90s, the Air Jordan 4 Retro Flight Club combines white leather with black accents for a similar construction to the Jordan 4 Military Black. This time around, though, Flight Club branding is added throughout, calling back to the time when Stan was just a name and being a fan meant mailing in membership info in exchange for a bi-annual newsletter. Available in full-family sizing, the retail price is set at $220 (men), $160 (GS), $100 (PS), and $85 (TD).

Jordan Tatum 4 White University Red - 01/22/2026

The All-Star break is almost here, but Boston Celtics fans will still tell you that star forward Jayson Tatum is coming back before the end of the season to lead the Leprechauns to a four-leaf clover championship. If he does, Tatum will have plenty of colorways of his new Jordan Tatum 4 to rotate on the court, including this clean white, red, and black combo. Available in a full-family size run, the retail prices are set at $130 (men), $100 (GS), $80 (PS), and $55 (TD).

Air Jordan 9 Retro Flint - 01/24/2026

Status Access for Shipping: 01/20/2026

The Air Jordan 9 doesn’t get the respect it deserves, but if any colorway of Jordan’s retirement-era release is included with the greats, it’s definitely the Flint or French Blue colorway. The Jumpman is bringing the Flints back to start the year, dropping in full-family sizing. The retail prices are set at $215 (men), $150 (GS), $90 (PS), and $75 (TD).

Air Jordan 1 Retro Low OG Olive - 01/31/2026

Originally planned as a high-top release a couple of years back, taken back to the drawing board and reimagined as a low, this Air Jordan 1 Low Retro Olive is a perfect pair to break out for the end of winter. Available in men’s and grade school sizing, the retail prices are set at $145 for adult sizes and $120 for GS.
