Even as we sit with just two months left to go in the year, Jumpman fans still have so much to budget for: the Air Jordan 4 “Black Cat,” the Air Jordan 11 “Gamma,” and of course, the Travis Scott Fragment Jordan 1. Yet that lack of a quiet moment is twofold, as the slate of 2026 drops continues to come into view.

The latest to tack onto that group is the Air Jordan 6 “Light Aqua,” now revealed as a part of the Fall class. Those who have checked into this kind of “leak” before will know the drill; only the color codes are set in stone rather than any final arrangement (“Light Aqua/Multicolor,” in this case). What’s more concrete is the full blitz for the AJ6 that Beaverton has in store — a 35th-anniversary celebration that mirrors what we just worked through with the AJ5. In addition to this seemingly sprightly pair, a Paris Saint-Germain effort, a “Cap and Gown,” and the gem of All-Star Weekend, the Air Jordan 6 “Reverse Infrared,” loom as participants.

Again, the Air Jordan 6 “Light Aqua” is expected out as a part of the Fall 2026 slate. Speculative mock-up imagery is embedded above — watch our Jordan Release Dates page for the latest on what next year has in store.
