The much-anticipated Air Jordan 11 “Black/Red/Grey” has been canceled for its planned Holiday 2025 release. Sneaker insiders have confirmed that this version will not be hitting shelves, and it will be replaced with other Air Jordan 11 releases for the same time period: the Air Jordan 11 “Gamma” and Air Jordan 11 “Rare Air”.
What We Were Expecting
Before the cancellation, fans had been eagerly waiting for the Black/Red/Grey Jordan 11, a colorway that was shaping up to be a major drop for 2025. While specific design details were scarce, the color combination alone sparked excitement. The black, red, and grey palette hinted at a potential tribute to Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls days, which would have been a huge narrative tie-in, especially for the holiday season.
However, it seems sneakerheads will have to wait a little longer for that particular version of the Jordan 11. The cancellation has left fans wondering what could have been, but there's still hope in the form of the new releases replacing it.
New Releases to Look Forward To
Instead of the Black/Red/Grey, we’ll now see the Air Jordan 11 “Gamma” and Air Jordan 11 “Rare Air” arriving in December 2025. These two versions are set to make their mark as part of the 40th anniversary celebrations for Michael Jordan’s iconic sneaker line. While details are still coming in, these shoes are expected to carry the same excitement that the Jordan 11 always brings to the holiday season.
Price and Release Plans
The Air Jordan 11 has been a holiday favorite for over a decade, and the 2025 releases are no different. Expect the new Jordan 11 models to retail at around $230, similar to the 2024’s Holiday release of the Jordan 11 “Legend Blue”. With a slate of exciting Jordan releases for Holiday 2025, fans will need to start budgeting for next year’s sneakers soon!
The Air Jordan 11 “Black/Red/Grey” may be canceled, but with the Gamma and Rare Air versions taking its place, Holiday 2025 is still set to be a big year for Jordan Brand. Keep an eye out for more details as we get closer to the release dates!
