Matt Varga We’ve still got plenty of entrées left on the 2025 Jordan Releases menu, but as the weeks pass by, the big 2026 is becoming closer and closer at hand. In turn, the sneaker leak industrial complex begins to turn its attention to how the brand will follow up its stacked 40th-anniversary slate. While there’s undoubtedly still plenty of surprises in store, another far-off Saturday is booked well in advance as the Air Jordan 12 “Bloodline” circles a June 2026 release date.
To get ahead of the question we’re sure our more dedicated readers have running through their heads: yes, this is the very same shoe reported for 2025 release a year before. Eventually, this nocturnal arrangement was supplanted by this year’s Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game” and presumed to be canceled outright. Trusted source @zsneakerheadz reverses course with this announcement, adding a fresh iteration on the black-and-red themes that’ve already propelled that sick-day OG to iconic heights and later inspired a “Reverse” edition in 2020. Long-time Jordan enthusiasts will note that this shoe’s moniker derives from the 2019 Jordan 1 of the same name, introduced as a novel spin on Chicago shades rather than as any tie to Roman Reigns or his WWE faction.
Again, the Air Jordan 12 “Bloodline” is due out on June 20th, 2026, but at this far-off juncture, that date is liable to change as we approach it. Check out an additional speculative mock-up image below and check in to our Jordan Release Dates page for drops closer on the calendar.
