Every Space Jam Air Jordan Releasing in 2026

Jordan Brand knows how to celebrate an anniversary. Last year, the label sent out a barrage of hit bring-backs in honor of 40 years of His Airness’ sneaker empire, but for 2026, the focus has shifted to another moment in MJ’s illustrious career: his starring role in the 1996 film Space Jam. Sure, there’s the obvious two candidates to commemorate Jordan’s silver screen scenes in the movie, the Air Jordan 11 and Air Jordan 9 Space Jam, both of which were worn by Michael throughout the picture. But there’s more up Jordan Brand’s sleeve for the Space Jam 30th anniversary celebrations.

In addition to the AJ 11 and AJ 9 Space Jam, there’s a brand-new Air Jordan 11 colorway honoring the people you technically never saw in the film. Well, you did see the animated Monstars go up against Jordan, but in real life, the scenes were shot using actors in green screen suits, which help inspire the Air Jordan 11 Retro Green Screen.

Check below for all the Space Jam Air Jordan sneakers that will be released throughout 2026. In addition to the pairs listed, more colorways and sneakers are expected. We’ll be updating this list in real time as more pairs are revealed, and we’ll be keeping you in the loop via the Sole Retriever mobile app once pairs do start to hit shelves.

Air Jordan 9 Retro Space Jam - 09/19

The first of two Air Jordans that Michael laced up in Space Jam, the OG colorway of the Air Jordan 9 returned with special packaging honoring the film on September 19, 2026. The shoe retains its classic white and black look with red accents throughout, reserving the Space Jam nods to the box.

Air Jordan 11 Retro Space Jam - 12/12

The Air Jordan 11 Retro Space Jam is the pair most remember from the movie, and rightfully so. It wasn’t given a retail release until four years after the film debuted, and it’s become one of the most coveted Air Jordan 11s of all time. The 2026 retro of the Space Jam 11s will feature the number “23” on the heel as opposed to the “45” that was used in the movie, and the Jumpman branding features a varsity royal hue. The original 2000 release and the ‘09 retro featured this shade, but when you watch Space Jam, you’ll notice MJ’s pair uses concord purple, which was used on the 2016 retro.

Air Jordan 11 Retro Green Screen - Holiday 2026

A brand new Space Jam Jordan 11 is getting released in 2026 with the Green Screen colorway. The pair honors the green screen suits worn by actors to help shoot scenes with MJ playing against the Monstars, with the entire upper doused in green suede.

Space Jam x Air Jordan 1 Low Bugs Bunny - Holiday 2026

The kids will have plenty of opportunities to celebrate Space Jam, even if they weren’t around when it first debuted 30 years ago. This pair of Air Jordan 1 Lows is done in an iridescent finish in different shades and features a Bugs Bunny recreation of the Jumpman logo on the tongue. This same logo appears on the packaging alongside a Space Jam 30th-anniversary logo. That same Jumpman-laden logo is also found on the insole.
