Air Jordan 11 ‘Space Jam’ 2026 Release Date, Price & Where to Buy The Air Jordan 11 ‘Space Jam’ is set to return in 2026 as a highly anticipated holiday release, marking the 30th anniversary of the 1996 film Space Jam. The sneakers, originally released in 2000, will feature their original specifications, including a lower cut, 23 heel branding, and a design that closely mirrors the prototype used in the movie. The release is expected to generate significant demand, potentially making it the most sought-after Jordan drop of the year. The design of the 2026 version retains the iconic elements of the original, such as black ballistic mesh, low-cut patent leather, white midsole, and icy outsole. Key differences from the 2016 retro release include a lower patent leather height compared to the higher cut of the 2016 model, tongue branding featuring “Jumpman Jam” instead of the standard Jumpman logo, and a packaging style that replicates the original “Face Box.” The colorway includes multi-color accents, Varsity Royal, white, and black, with a retail price of $235. The release date is scheduled for December 12, 2026, and the sneakers will be available through major retailers such as Nike SNKRS, Finish Line, Foot Locker, Champs Sports, Dick’s Sporting Goods, and JD Sports. Due to the high demand, experts advise shoppers to prepare in advance by setting up accounts, preloading payment methods, and entering raffles to increase their chances of securing a pair. Dick’s Sporting Goods is highlighted as a particularly reliable option for the release. The 2026 drop is positioned as a standout release in a year featuring other notable Jordan models, including the “Bred” 4s, “Cap and Gown” 6s, and “True Red” 13s.#finish_line #nike_snkrs #dicks_sporting_goods #air_jordan_11 #space_jam
Air Jordan 11 ‘Space Jam Galaxy’ Release Date and Purchase Guide The Air Jordan 11 ‘Space Jam Galaxy’ is set to release on November 16, 2026, as a limited-edition colorway featuring a cosmic-themed design inspired by the 1996 animated film Space Jam. The sneaker’s colorway includes multi-color, gym green, lucky green, and orange accents, with a gradient patent leather mudguard that mirrors the film’s poster, logo, and the outer space basketball court from the movie. The upper is white leather with white tongue and laces, and the translucent icy outsole adds a contrasting element. The Style Code is IQ5700-900, and the retail price is $255. The release will be available exclusively on Nike SNKRS and select NBHD retailers, with allocations described as “collector-focused” rather than mass-market. This limited availability is expected to lead to rapid sellouts, with resale prices already surpassing $400 on platforms like Sole Serious. Pre-order listings have seen significant demand, and the hype is anticipated to increase once official images are released. The design draws directly from the Space Jam film, incorporating elements such as the movie’s logo and the space basketball court where the Tune Squad faced the Monstars. The blend of purples, blues, greens, and oranges with starry speckling makes this one of the more visually striking AJ11s in the catalog. The colorway is positioned as a bold departure from the classic black patent leather “Space Jam” version, which is set to release alongside the Galaxy in the same season. The Air Jordan 11 debuted in November 1995, designed by Tinker Hatfield with patent leather, ballistic mesh, and a carbon fiber spring plate, establishing it as the first true performance dress shoe in basketball.#nike_snkrs #michael_jordan #air_jordan_11 #space_jam #nbhd_retailers
