Every year brings new Air Jordan releases along. Some are instant hits, while others are duds, and a few take time to be fully appreciated. At the end of each year, top ten lists are often made. However, there isn’t as much attention regarding the most anticipated Air Jordans to be released throughout the year.
Most of the highly anticipated sneaker releases are collabs. First, collaborations often provide a breath of fresh air. Outside influence can be beneficial when sneaker brands work cohesively with designers and creatives. Also, collab releases tend to be more hyped because of the demand. More people look forward to sneaker collabs compared to general releases. However, some of the best Jordans may be limited releases without an outside designer attached to the release.
Air Jordan 1 Low Year of the Dragon
2024 is the beginning of the Year of the Dragon. This particular pair releases as a celebration of the Chinese New Year. Jordan Brand has been known to include many cultures besides American culture in their footwear and apparel.
New and refreshing concepts like the Year of the Dragon colorway keeps sneakerheads on their toes. Jordan Brand will always heavily rely on originals, but new colorways and concepts keep things interesting and push the brand to step outside of the signature Jumpman looks.
Trophy Room x Air Jordan 1 Low
Everyone interested in sneakers knows all about the controversy surrounding the release of the Trophy Room Air Jordan 1 High. Marcus Jordan used his connections and status to his advantage and to the disadvantage of countless sneaker enthusiasts everywhere.
Although Marcus Jordan will never be one of the most liked figures in the sneaker world, Trophy Room releases will always draw attention and create immense demand. Hopefully the Trophy Room Air Jordan 1 Low release goes smoother than the previous releases. Even if Marcus Jordan is still on his typical bullshit, this Jordan collab will nonetheless be a top hit for 2024.
Travis Scott x Air Jordan 1 Low Black/Olive
Anything with Travis Scott’s name is sure to have some hype tied to it. Jordan Brand and Cactus Jack have been on a roll since the partnership started in 2017. The Jordan 1 Low has become one of Scott’s most appealing silhouettes. Fans everywhere will definitely be lining up virtually on the SNKRS app as soon as the draw opens for another rendition of the Travis Scott Air Jordan 1 Low.
The olive Travis Scott Jordans that released last year was an instant success. This year’s rendition of the olive Travis Scott Jordan will be sure to have tons of hype and demand around the pair. As long as the partnership between Nike and Travis Scott remains thriving and healthy, the duo will continue to produce hits year in and year out.
Air Jordan 11 Columbia
Holiday release Jordan 11s haven’t been hitting the same over the last few years. However, the Columbias will bring the Jordan hype back to the holiday season. A long awaited release will bring some needed hype back to Jordan 11s.
The Columbia 11s haven’t been released since 2014. Ten years is a long time in the sneaker world; many sneakerheads and Jordan enthusiasts will be anticipating this long overdue release. Air Jordan 11s will always be a timeless silhouette, although some colorways don’t do the model justice. However, there is no question that the Columbia colorway will be sure to bring some hype and needed attention around Jordan 11 holiday releases.
Air Jordan Bred 4 Reimagined
Jordan Brand has taken the reimagined idea and ran with it like Usain Bolt in the Olympics. We won’t be seeing the last “reimagined” Air Jordan anytime soon. Why fix something if it’s not broken?
The Air Jordan 3 White Cement Reimagined was an instant hit last year. Although this version of the Bred 4s utilizes black leather rather than the typical suede, the pair will still be popular amongst countless Air Jordan and sneaker enthusiasts. Anyone doubting this release will be in for a surprise when people around the world will look to get their hands on a pair just like any other rerelease of the iconic Air Jordan 4 Bred colorway.
