Nothing screams “tax refund season” like a fresh pair of Jordans, and the Jumpman has teed up a handful of April releases worthy of your attention. The slate is far less collab-heavy than last month, but the lone link-up is a big one, with the VAA Jordan 1 “Alaska” story coming to its conclusion via a wide retailer drop at the top of the month.
The rest of the lineup offers some solid under-the-radar options and potential hits, namely the long-awaited “Cap & Gown” 6s and a 25th anniversary Air Jordan 11 retro. As usual, we’ve compiled every Air Jordan release of the month below with background info, images, and shopping links for your convenience. Keep scrolling to dive in.
