Matt Varga For Jordan Brand, 2026 may just be the year they look back on as a turning point in their sports history. In the brand’s name, their stewardship and sponsorship in the realm of basketball are beyond reproach, but they’ve begun to add additional categories into their orbit.
Likely the most unexpected came as the Jumpman appeared on the Brazil away kit, additionally seeping into the realm of footwear with the Jordan Cryoshot. But don’t sleep on their efforts on the diamond either, as the Yomiuri / Tokyo Giants just redoubled their efforts by flexing their player-edition Air Jordan 11 cleats. Bringing the formal-esque model onto the field of play has been a plotline throughout the past several years already.
The team already debuted custom uniforms designed by Jordan, taking a more streetwear-informed, brooding approach to the national symbol of the cherry blossom. To pair with their threads, these Tokyo Giants “Cherry Blossom” Air Jordan 11 cleats align note-for-note, mixing a red/white/black paisley print across the mudguards while keeping to the storied Chicago tonality in the spaces surrounding.
If you aren’t scheduled to pitch or hit for the Giants, it’ll be nigh impossible to get your hands on this specialized gear. However, you can window shop to your heart’s content via the images below.
