Jordan Brand will be reintroducing an international flavor to the Air Jordan 4 collection with the release of the Air Jordan 4 “London” (LDN) — a 2026 drop from the brand’s City Series returning this Fall. The “No Excuses”-inspired colorway from the collection was crafted with a nod to the gritty toughness and enduring street style found in London.

Sporting a weathered Black upper alongside Red Bark, Dark Smoke Grey, Smoke Grey, and Hemp tones, the sneaker is finished in worn-in suede and nubuck materials for a vintage street-wear vibe. The details of the upper feature signature mesh panels throughout along with aged midsole accents and distressed detailing to really bring that lived-in London style to life.

Replacing the “AIR” branding on the heel tab with “LDN” for London in traditional colors, the inner tongue message “No Excuses” pays homage to the hustle and energy of the city with a little added motivation. Finishing off the sneakers are a few Brown accents and a Gum-style outsole. Each pair will also include a custom Nike LDN hangtag.

The drop continues Jordan Brand’s global storytelling from previous City Series iterations, such as “Paris,” “Shanghai,” and “New York.” The Air Jordan 4 “London” is rugged, yet refined, a true reflection of the city itself.

Air Jordan 4 London Release Date

The Air Jordan 4 “London” (LDN) will be available to purchase at select Jordan Brand retailers and Nike.com in Fall 2026 for $220 USD.

Jordan Brand’s “Board of Greatness” summit (previously called Board of Governors) is the company’s most clandestine affair. It’s not simply a seeding package or a new product reveal. It’s a rare, intimate gathering where Michael Jordan’s most trusted friends, athletes and collaborators assemble to bond over legacy and the future of the Jumpman. Every member takes home highly sought after pieces, but few compare to the exclusivity of the Air Jordan 16 “Board of Governors.”

Made exclusively for the 2019 summit, this Player Exclusive features top-notch construction and a subtle touch of luxury. Showcasing a quilted suede shroud in black suede with a matte nubuck toe box in lieu of the original patent leather, gold “BOG” stitching on the heel straps and a small bowtie stitched on the tongue, this model evokes MJ’s classic sense of style. A custom interior tag embroidered with “Exclusively Tailored for The Jordan Family — B.O.G. 2019” is another unique touch.

While there have been standard releases of the Air Jordan 16 that have paid homage to some of the shoe’s classic colorways over the years, this “Board of Governors” PE is one that’s not likely to ever be available to the public. The premium execution and the story behind this sneaker just make it so much more than a sneaker. This is a collectible that represents the crème de la crème of the Jordan Brand family, while also telling a story about Michael Jordan’s post-basketball career and influence away from the court.

The Air Jordan 16 “Board of Governors” PE will sadly never see a public release, making it one of the rarest modern-era Jordan designs of all time.
