Jordan Brand and Levi’s Have a New Collaboration on One of Michael Jordan’s Most Famous Shoes

The Levi's x Air Jordan 3 Retro SP was debuted by Spike Lee at Madison Square Garden.

After delivering a three pack of Air Max 95 OG Big Bubbles in 2025, American denim maker Levi’s will once again link up with Nike, Inc. for a trio of Air Jordan 3s in 2026. News of the collaboration first emerged in May and Sunday, the filmmaker gave fans a first look at the upcoming style.

While seated court side for the New York Knicks’ win over the Brooklyn Nets, Lee laced up the unreleased Levi’s x Air Jordan 3 SP in what appears to be the collaboration’s rumored Denim/Black/Sail colorway (style code IH7959-400). The pair worn by Lee features an upper fully constructed of Levi’s denim in dark raw indigo.

Retail pricing of $225 is expected, although it’s possible the specifics could change between now and the eventual release.
