Jordan Release Calendar

James Whitner’s The Whitaker Group is most often associated with the premium A Ma Maniere storefront, whose collaborations with Jordan Brand have made them a household name in the sneaker community. They’ve remained a consistent partner for Jordan since their initial Air Jordan 3 release in 2021, tackling the Air Ship, Jordan 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 12, and 39. Alongside the label’s third AJ 4 release, A Ma Maniere has prepped their first-ever Air Jordan 6.
Quite similar to the original A Ma Maniere AJ 4 collab, the pair comes in a light mauve shade. This hue coats the premium nubuck leather material on the upper, while darker burgundy hits can be found along the tongue and heel spoiler. This same shade is applied to the Nike Air text on the heel tab.

A Ma Maniere replaces the Air Jordan text on the tongue of the left sneaker, while the right pair retains its classic branding detail. Finishing the upper is the tonal lace cover featuring a burgundy Jumpman and lace lock. AMM's signature quilted sockliner returns in a tonal mauve hue.
The A Ma Maniere x Air Jordan 6 Retro Smokey Mauve will release November 21, 2025 through The Whitaker Group storefronts (A Ma Maniere, Social Status, APB).
