Matt Varga In 2018, Jordan Brand leaned into the punch, noting the widespread adoption of the AJ11 as prom, graduation, and all-around semi-formal wear, and gave the people what they wanted with a blacked-out Air Jordan 11. As the Air Jordan 6 35th Anniversary continues, Mike’s first championship-winning silhouette will follow in its footsteps; our first look at the Air Jordan 6 “Cap and Gown” is now here.
Indeed, what the shoe is founded on is a classy pairing of white and black, obviously dominated by shady shades through suede uppers before adding 3M to the midsole and back tab. In truth, that’s where this shoe distinguishes itself among other colorways, as reflective piping outlines the two cut-outs in the quarter panel and down the laces solidify that eye-catching touch as a central one. Your mileage will vary on whether you’re all for or entirely against its closing detail, as a “Nike Air” branding sits loud and proud on the heel despite this obviously not being an OG Air Jordan 6.
The Air Jordan 6 “Cap and Gown” is expected to release in May, following in the AJ11’s footsteps by touching down just before peak graduation season. Adult sizing will be on tap for a $215 sticker price. Catch in-hand shots below and watch our Jordan Releases 2026 hub for updates.
