Jordan Brand is bringing back the Air Jordan 3 "Knicks" for Holiday 2026, reviving its 2019 release after the New York Knicks won the NBA title.

According to multiple internal documents, Jordan Brand is re-releasing the "Knicks" color scheme during Holiday 2026. Preorders opened on June 18th, a few days after New York clinched their first NBA title since 1973.

The pair carries style code JU1525-148 in the official "White / Old Royal / University Orange / Tech Grey" colorway, retails for $215, and became available to preorder on June 18th, 2026. Orders are expected to ship in December 2026 as part of Holiday 2026. The special package includes a Michael Jordan face box, custom wrapping paper, stickers and an updated label stitched on the tongue. A crisp white upper gives the pair a clean foundation, with lightly textured panels adding a subtle tactile finish. Grey elephant-print overlays wrap the toe, eyestays, and heel, creating signature contrast across the white base. Royal blue lines the collar and appears through the eyelet inserts, while orange hardware brings sharper flashes around the laces. The white tongue carries an embroidered orange Jumpman, and the heel finishes the branding with a royal blue Jumpman. A clear attached tag hangs from the quarter panel, pairing an orange insert with a blue Jumpman and Air lettering inside its transparent frame. The white midsole adds a vivid orange band through the heel and sidewall, with a visible Air cushioning window near the rear. Underneath, the grey rubber outsole is divided by orange circular grip rings at the forefoot and a royal blue midfoot panel stamped with orange Jordan lettering.
