Matt Varga As we wade into the waters of 2025 Jordan Release Dates in earnest, finally seeing tangible drops after what feels like a full year of looking ahead to its stacked entrants, the “Year of the Snake” is one of the first collections we’ll tick off. Comprised of models new and old, we’ve finally gotten looks, most official, at the serpentine capsule in full.
The Air Jordan 11 Low is first up for our purposes, executing a refined blend of textured leather, neutral tones and of course, a faux-distressed application of snakeskin on the mudguard. It’s not alone in terms of Jordan retros, either, as the Air Jordan 5 matches its elevated atmosphere by fully drenching in off-white tones, save for the sawtooth design in the midsole that delivers a rainbow iridescent finish.
Then it’s two versions of the Air Jordan 1 Low, one carrying the “OG” build and the other a mainline edition. For the latter, a color-changing wings logo appears on the heel, greatly contrasting the staid, steely tones across the overlays. The Air Jordan 1 Low proper switches that formula, pinning the same industrial finish as the AJ11 across its uppermost leather sections, futhering the iridescent motif that runs throughout the whole collection.
Finally, we close with the Tatum 3 and Jordan Legacy 312 Low. Jayson’s signature shoe is doused in that pearlescent finish from heel to toe, while the Legacy 312 utilizes it for a glossy sheen on its backtab. Rounding out the lifestyle shoe, a swatch of peach in the midsole adds some finishing flair to a shoe that’s otherwise dominated by pearl white.
In case our above breakdown didn’t spell it out clear enough, the rainbow shading seen on so many of the pairs is the dominant theme across the collection, with secondary emphasis on off-white neutral tones, already a throughline for Jordan’s yearly Chinese Zodiac deliveries last seen with the 2024 Year of the Dragon. In addition, each of the shoes here is expected to come with a black snakeskin hangtag.
Concrete release dates for each of these shoes elude us at the time of this writing, but you can get closer looks at all of the aforementioned shoes and find respective “Where To Buy” sections just below.
