Updated July 31st, 2026: The Air Jordan 11 “Green Screen” aka “Monstars” is now expected to release November 16th, 2026 for $255, per zSneakerHeadz, timed almost exactly to the day of the movie’s global release 30 years ago. The sneaker draws inspiration from the set animators used to bring “Space Jam” to life.

Original article published July 10th, 2026:

Jordan Brand is celebrating the 30th anniversary of “Space Jam” with a trio of Air Jordan 11 releases for Holiday 2026. The first is obvious: the beloved, legendary Jordan 11 “Space Jam” returning to shelves a full decade removed from its last retro. A “Space Jam Galaxy” colorway akin to the synonymous Nike Foamposite is also en route, and now we can report a third style inspired by the Monstars, the villainous aliens MJ and the Tune Squad had to defeat on the court.

Speculative mockups shared by zSneakerHeadz and Sneaker Files point to a monochrome green suede colorway with glow-in-the-dark soles, though early intel of this nature is always subject to change. Special branding and custom insoles are very much in play but unconfirmed as of this writing. We’re immediately reminded of the Air Jordan 11 “Jawn Air” PE gifted to Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts after his Super Bowl LIX victory, though the theme here is obviously very different. While supposedly named for the alien squad MJ faced on the court, the green screen set where the movie was filmed figures to be an equally key reference. There will be plenty more to unpack as we creep closer to a release.

The Air Jordan 11 “Monstars” is reported to release Holiday 2026 for $255 in men’s sizing. Quantities are TBD, but given the original “Space Jam” 11s will likely be produced en masse, Jordan Brand’s other anniversary drops will probably skew more limited.
