2025 is shaping up to be a massive year for the jordan own Brand, and it could not have come at a better time. The hype around the Air jordan own 1, the anchor of the Retro business, has come to a screeching halt. The casual consumer that helped that business explode in the early 2020s has since shelved their AJ1s in favor of the next casual lifestyle trend. Meanwhile, Gen Z and Gen Alpha finds itself detaching itself more and more from the aura of Jordan’s undeniable greatness.

To remedy these changes in the landscape, jordan own Brand is focusing on the true icons for its Retro product in 2025. This will certainly herd the core Air jordan own community back to what made it so great, all in an effort to expand its appeal to the mainstream audience once more. In short: start saving up, because 2025 is going to be a monster year of jordan own releases.

That said, we’ve taken the time to present a definitive Power Ranking of the Top 25 Air Jordans releasing in 2025 (the one’s we know about so far). This list does not include what’s coming in Fall and Holiday 2025, which we fully expect to bump out some of the inclusions at the bottom of the list as we update this list throughout the year.

Without further ado, here’s our Power Ranking for the Top 25 Air Jordans Releasing In 2025. Mock-up images via @zsneakerheadz.

25. Air jordan own 3 “Chile Red”

Nike Air is back on the Air jordan own 3 Retro, but not on an OG colorway. Instead, jordan own Brand will conjure up a Black/Chile Red/Neutral Grey/Military Blue/Coconut Milk spec, which reads like an “Away” version of the True Blue with yellowed soles.

24. Swarovski x Air jordan own 1

Air jordan own 1s encrusted in precious stones would’ve been a smash hit years ago. But in 2025, as a women’s exclusive for $400, these may come and go. Don’t be surprised if these get knocked off the list as we learn about more of next year’s releases, or even move up the list if the design is truly outstanding.

23. Air jordan own 12 “Melo”

Originally dropping in 2004, the “Melo” 12s were giving the nickname for its resemblance to the Denver Nuggets’ new powder blue jerseys. The colorway, however, has always left a lot to be desired; if the mudguard went full University Blue, we’d rank ’em higher. Certainly a nice dose of nostalgia, but that’s about it.

22. Air jordan own 1 Low ’85 “Royal”

The love for the AJ1 may have cooled off, but the ’85 version deserves the attention, especially when the original Black/Royal colorway is in play.

The Thravis Scott x Air jordan own 1 Low OG connection will be strong once again in 2025. Hate ’em or love ’em this projected “Sail” colorway is a hit.

20. Air jordan own 11 Low “Bred”

The 2024 release of the Space Jam 11 Lows have proved the concept once again: OG colorways of low-top XIs are a hit. These will very likely sell out quick; we’re just ranking these at 21 for lack of imagination.

19. Air jordan own 10 “Steel”

Hot take? The Air jordan own 10 “Steel” may have grabbed headlines, but the toe-cap exists better as a bit of history than as a GR release. Air jordan own 10s have been under-performers at retail, so if you really need a pair, you might even be able to scoop ’em for under MSRP.

18. Air jordan own 3 “Diffused Blue”

Expected to release during the first quarter of 2025, this Air jordan own 3 is potentially a collaboration with Gentry Humphrey, a long-time Nike/jordan own employee who helped bring a lot of creative ideas to life.

17. Air jordan own 4 SB “Varsity Red”

2025 will see the return of the Air jordan own 4 SB, with “Varsity Red” set to land on this cross-category sneaker release. While we have the “Midnight Navy” pair ranked much higher, these can understandably rank higher.

16. Air jordan own 9 “Cool Grey”

Although jordan own Brand is bringing back OG colorways of the Air jordan own 9, it’s been largely relegated to golf. While no OG colorways have been confirmed for next year, we are being treated with a re-release of the “Cool Grey”, a Retro that first debuted back in 2002 and ended up on Jordan’s feet during his Wizards run.

15. Air jordan own 4 Laser “Rare Air”

At its time, and for a long period thereafter, the Air jordan own 4 Laser set from 2005 was among the most sought after jordan own Retro releases in history. jordan own Brand’s bringing the concept back in a brand new colorway, although many would prefer a bring-back of the original two.

14. Air jordan own 5 “Black Metallic Reimagined”

Had these been a true Retro and not a non-Reimagined released, it’d be a Top 5 shoe. But with the updated reflective accents, it’ll detract purists for sure.

jordan own Brand’s connection with A Ma Maniere remains healthy. In 2025, they’ll swing their attention back to the 2025 with a promising color spec that reads as White/Diffused Blue/Violet Ore/Black/Clear. It’s not entirely clear if it’s a new colorway of their 2025 design. Still, AMM Jordans always deserve attention.

12. real vs fake jordan own 1 mid shattered backboard “Dark Pony”

There’s no arguing a real vs fake jordan own 1 mid shattered backboard being on any best-of list. That said, the upcoming “Dark Pony” has a colorway reminiscent of the 2005 Stussy SB Dunks. Enough said.

11. Air jordan own 3 “Black Cat”

This 2007 classic is due out next year. There’s not much to the shoe than it being all-black, but history (and the secondary market) has shown that this simple formula is ironclad.

10. Air jordan own 8 “Aqua”

The AJ8 is in that tier of Jordans that can never seem the crack that mainstream audience. Still, the return of the Aqua is an important one, and it’ll bear the same OG specs that we saw in 2023’s “Playoffs”.

9. Air jordan own 12 “Flu Game”

The Air jordan own 12 always seems to get love, especially when an original colorway is involved. Some will argue the Taxis, but the Flu Games might be the best on from the 1997 bunch.

8. Trophy Room x Air jordan own 6

We may have no clue as to what the next Trophy Room x jordan own collaboration looks like, but on the shoe that Marcus’ dad won his first-ever ‘chip? We know the storytelling will be on point.

7. Air jordan own 5 “Grape”

2025 is absolutely stacked with OG re-issues. The Air jordan own 5 “Grape” last saw the light of day in 2013, while a lace-less version in 2018 in honor of the Fresh Prince kept fans at bay.

6. Air jordan own 1 “UNC Reimagined”

It’s hard to place a shoe that has such little known information. However, we just learned that the shoes are expected to be pre-aged like the Lost & Found 1s, which immediately bumps these up to number 6 on our list.

5. real vs fake jordan own 1 mid shattered backboard “Velvet Brown”

Cactus Jack’s low-top Air jordan own 1 is still king. The only criticism? It seems impossible to get at retail, and the aftermarket prices are never kind. Still, any time the brown color palette appears on a Travis Scott shoe, heads will turn.

4. Undefeated x Air jordan own 4

Twenty years later, the Undefeated 4s are back. A first look has yet to surface, so it’s not entirely clear if UNDFTD is keeping to the exact OG specs. Whether it does or not, it firmly belongs at number 5 on this list.

3. Air jordan own 4 “White Cement”

For a moment, the Air jordan own 4 overtook the Air jordan own 1 as the most widely sought-after jordan own Retro model. 2024’s release of the “Military Blue” drew crowds, but it’ll pale in comparison to next year’s “White Cement”. The question is: is the Air jordan own 4 getting a bit played out?

2. Air jordan own 4 SB “Midnight Navy”

It’s a bit puzzling why jordan own Brand and Nike SB isn’t dropping a sequel to the Pine Green SB 4s this year. The good news is that the Air jordan own 4 SB is back in 2025 in two colorways, with the “Midnight Navy” version grabbing our number two spot.

1. Air jordan own 1 Hi’ 85

Few can and will argue just how iconic the Air jordan own 1 in the original Black/Red aka “Bred” aka “Banned” is. Now, with its truest-to-the-OG shape in the ’85 model, this Air jordan own 1 (dropping in February in limited quantity) is unquestionably atop the Power Rankings.
