Jordan Release Calendar

The Air Jordan 6 anniversary push isn’t restricted to the US and, unfortunately for fans of classy leather construction and Chinese mythology, this pair won’t be making it out of Asia. After setting off the AJ 6’s 35th anniversary with a super-exclusive BIN pair and a Niecy Nash-backed Infrared Salesman, this tonal brown leather pair is another hit of exclusive luxury.
The Air Jordan 6 Xuanwu is a dress shoe in Air Jordan form, starting with a weathered toe of brown leather peaking through against a premium black leather base, replicating a well-worn loafer. More loafer details are added to the side panels with perforations and careful stitching, replicating a wing tip.

Gold accents on the lace toggle and mid-lace Jumpman logo, plus icy blue hits on the outsole, bring it back to the Jordan aesthetic. Designed with the intertwined tortoise and snake character from Chinese mythology, Xuanwu, in mind, the pair matches an Air Jordan 1 Low Xuanwu and an Air Jordan 1 High Xuanwu that dropped late last year.
The Air Jordan 6 Retro Xuanwu will be released Summer 2026 through Nike and select Jordan retailers across Asia. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is still TBD. For all the latest Jordan news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
