You guys are getting out there and playing soccer, right? The way that the sneaker industry has gone all-in on soccer cleats and fan gear ahead of the World Cup, we’ve got to assume that pick-up basketball games and golf outings are all being replaced by pick-up soccer games this summer, right? You’re at least copping your nephew some new cleats for youth league, aren’t you?
If you needed any more incentive to hit the pitch or cop new boots for the real soccer players in your life, Jordan Brand is once again going off-sides, taking over the popular Nike Tiempo Maestro Elite cleat and replacing Swoosh branding with Jumpman logos and elephant print.
After debuting the in-house crossover cleat in a full coat of Infrared 23 a couple of months back, Jumpman is adding to the collection with another iconic Jordan colorway: Sail. Starting with an off-white Sail base, the cleat adds an Infrared 23 Jumpman on the elephant print side panel and a zoomed-in elephant print texture across the entire upper.

Outside of Jordan, brands across the sneaker industry have been swimming in World Cup energy and flooding the market with collab cleats. At adidas, Wales Bonner, and Thrasher Skateboard Magazine have joined the Cup cause, while New Balance tapped Stone Island, and of course, Nike linked with Travis Scott for a La Flame cleat.

The Jordan Tiempo Maestro Elite SE Sail Infrared 23 will be released Summer 2026 through Nike and select Jordan retailers in-store and online. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $275. For all the latest World Cup cleat collab news and drop info, download the Sole Retriever App.
