Summary
- An Air Jordan 3 RM (speculative mock-up pictured above) is rumored to release next year
- The report notes that it maintains the Air Jordan 3’s heel tab and sole unit while modifying the upper
- It will serve as the first low-top version of the Air Jordan 3 to drop
It’s no secret that retro Air Jordans are Jordan Brand’s cash cow. While fervor for re-releases of classics persists, the Jumpman team knows it needs to balance this with a sense of newness.
As a result, we continue to see old school models don new colorways, be highlighted in collaborative projects, and even be reimagined into new variants of the original. A recent example of the latter is the Air Jordan 4 RM. The “Remix” of the Air Jordan 4 was introduced last year, offering the first low-top version of the AJ4 in celebration of its 35th anniversary. It’s become a staple for the brand’s latest lifestyle lineups and was said to lead to an Air Jordan 7 RM for 2025, however, it later became apparent that the new take on the Air Jordan 7 was actually an upcoming model named the Jordan MVP 92.
Now, word of the actual sequel to the Air Jordan 4 RM has been shared in another new report by Sneaker Files, indicating that an Air Jordan 3 RM is in the works for 2026. While we lack a first look at what to expect, the mock-up shared above is likely close to what will be delivered, if the accuracy of last year’s mock-up of the Jordan MVP 92 is any indicator. The sneaker is said to be the first low-top version of the Air Jordan 3 to drop, borrowing its heel tab and sole unit.
At the time of writing, Jordan Brand has not officially announced that an Air Jordan 3 RM is on the way next year. Stay tuned for updates, including a first look at the rumored model, as we currently anticipate its arrival to take place next spring via Nike SNKRS and select retailers, likely around the $155 USD price point of its Air Jordan 4 RM counterpart.
