Air Jordan 6 ‘Sport Blue’ Release Date and Where to Buy

The Air Jordan 6 ‘Sport Blue’ is coming back, but you could potentially cop the original release for well under retail. If you’re obsessed with the new pair — and Nike Air on the heel — here’s everything you need to know. Let’s talk sneakers.

Air Jordan 6 ‘Sport Blue’ Key Facts

Where Can You Buy the Air Jordan 6 ‘Sport Blue’?

The new Air Jordan 6 ‘Sport Blue’ is expected in Fall 2027 at Nike.com and Jordan Brand retailers, though Nike hasn’t confirmed the date. Until then, the 2014 retro (384664-107) is the version available, through resale platforms such as StockX and GOAT.

Why Does the Air Jordan 6 ‘Sport Blue’ Stand Out?

The ‘Sport Blue’ was one of five original Air Jordan 6 colorways when Tinker Hatfield’s design debuted in 1991. It has returned only once since, in 2014, with a Jumpman on the heel. The AJ6 is also the shoe Jordan wore while winning his first NBA championship that year.

The 2027 pair is expected to restore Nike Air heel branding for the first time since the original, along with White/Sport Blue-White color blocking, an icy translucent outsole and a shape closer to the early pairs.

Should You Buy the Air Jordan 6 ‘Sport Blue’?

Like the White Infrared, this re-release is shaping up like a minor cosmetic upgrade. If it were me, I’d look for the Sport Blue from a reseller. Why wait to pay $215 in 2027 if you can buy almost the exact pair now for under $200?
