Air Jordan 6 OG “Infrared” Returns Spring 2026 For 35th Anniversary

Published on

The Air Jordan 6 OG “Infrared” is reportedly set to return in Spring 2026, celebrating its 35th anniversary. This iconic sneaker played a historic role in basketball, as Michael Jordan wore it when he won his first NBA Championship in 1991 against Magic Johnson and the Los Angeles Lakers.

First released in 1991, the Air Jordan 6 was designed by Tinker Hatfield. The sneaker’s sleek, aerodynamic build was inspired by Jordan’s love for sports cars. Key features included a reinforced rubber tongue grip, a translucent outsole, and an internal fitted sleeve for comfort. However, what made the “Infrared” version truly stand out was its Black nubuck upper, bold Infrared accents, and the signature Nike Air branding on the heel.

For its 35th Anniversary, Jordan Brand aims to deliver a faithful recreation of the original. Expect Nike Air branding, premium nubuck material, and the classic Infrared detailing. While past retros have made slight changes to materials and color blocking, this edition could be the closest to the 1991 release.

Air Jordan 6 OG Infrared 2026 Release Date

The Air Jordan 6 OG “Infrared” will launch in Spring 2026 at select Jordan Brand retailers. It will be available both in-store and online, including Nike.com. Pricing has not been confirmed, but it is expected to retail for around $200 USD.

This release is a must-have for sneaker collectors and Jordan fans alike. With its rich history and timeless design, the Air Jordan 6 “Infrared” remains one of the most beloved sneakers of all time. Stay tuned for more updates as the release date approaches.
