An Air Jordan 3 RM to Release Next Year

Summary
It's no secret that retro Air Jordans areJordan Brand'scash 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 theAir 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 anAir Jordan 7 RMfor 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 newreportby Sneaker Files, indicating that anAir Jordan 3 RMis 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 theAir Jordan 3to 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 viaNike SNKRSand select retailers, likely around the $155 USD price point of its Air Jordan 4 RM counterpart.

The Latest Air Jordans? They're Digital

In March, when Jordan Brand released the Air Jordan 4 'Brick by Brick,' a collaboration with the BMX athlete Nigel Sylvester, they sold out almost instantly, quickly doubled in value on the resale market and were championed by collectors as an early contender for sneaker of the year. But for some sneaker fans, the real fun began two months later, when the 'Brick by Brick' became available in Fortnite — as a fully digital replica that could be purchased for 1,000 'V-Bucks,' the game's virtual currency, or about $8.99. Fortnite, the online multiplayer shooter by Epic Games, introduced Kicks, a vertical within its popular in-game marketplace dedicated to footwear, in November. Alongside a handful of quirky proprietary designs, the virtual shop sells shoes by Nike, Jordan Brand, Adidas and Crocs, which can be worn by player avatars and shown off during matches. For gamers — especially kids — these digital sneakers represent a form of creative self-expression. 'The younger generation sees what happens on the internet as no less important than the offline world,' Funs Jacobs, a technology and culture strategist, said. 'To older generations, it sounds insane, but it's a bit of an identity thing.' They're also a big business. Fortnite, a free-to-play game, has more than 500 million registered users and an average of over two million active players every day. Its $5 billion in annual revenue comes almost entirely from the sale of virtual goods. Though Epic would not provide exact sales figures, a representative from the company said players had selected and applied Kicks to their avatars nearly seven billion times since November.
