Has the reign of A Ma Maniere x Jordan Brand collaborations finally slowed down? With no reported pairs in the works from AMM proper, perhaps so, but don’t take that to mean they’re taking it easy in general. James Whitner’s multi-armed empire has been extremely busy already in 2026; the Whitaker Group adidas relationship seemingly issues a new “Do Not Disturb” colorway every week, and the individual storefronts under the banner have been in the mix through a (still pending) V2k Run series and upcoming work on the AJ11 Low (including the just-revealed JAIDE Jordan 11 Low).
Returning to their roots, A Ma Maniere has a six-pair “While You Were Sleeping” collection centered on the Nike Air Force 1 Low, with six individual pairs now revealed via official images. The luxe leather treatments that’ve paced much of the AMM oeuvre stick around here, as with another brand hallmark in monogrammed embossed liners. Double-ply Swooshes, co-branded heels, gold dubraes, and the replacement of “Air” midsole text with a full spell-out continue those rich detailing. Perhaps the most clever is at the toe, where the usual perforations switch into A shapes.
As for the palettes, some stick to already-trod territory for Maniere; dusky “Violet Ore” and “Diffused Blue” utilize color codes we’ve seen in past work (the Air Jordan 4 and Jordan 5, respectively). Several more look to vibrant, summer-ready mixes; “Team Green,” “Laser Orange” and “Team Red” variations are about as expressive as we’ve seen from the brand to date. A “Cave Purple” pair rounds out this six-shot capsule, sitting somewhere between those two poles.
At the time of this writing, release information for the A Ma Maniere x Nike Air Force 1 Low collection is all but opaque. Given the aforementioned V2K Run in the pipeline, expect a busy few months for the Whitaker Group family upcoming. Check out each of the six colorways via the galleries below.
