Michael Jordan Spotted in the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 'Cinnabar'
Original post: 19 February 2026 - While Michael Jordan celebrated his 63rd birthday this week, in February 2026, he visited Disneyland wearing the new colorway of Nigel Sylvester’s upcoming collaboration with Jordan Brand.
Although we had already seen earlier images of the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 'Cinnabar', these new photos once again confirm that the BMX rider’s next Air Jordan 4 collaboration will feature a white-red-black colorway.
Nigel Sylvester and Jordan Brand
Nigel Sylvester, BMX athlete and entrepreneur from Queens, New York, has a long history with Jordan Brand and Nike. In 2014, Sylvester first collaborated with Nike SB on the Standing On My Pedals SB Dunk High. Four years later, in 2018, he released his first Jordan. The sneaker, which came in a cream-colored version, faded as you wore it.
Then in 2019 we saw the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 1 ‘Noise Cancelling’. In 2023 the well-known ‘Bike Air’ branding appeared for the first time: first on the Nigel Sylvester x Jordan Air Ship PE and then on the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 RM ‘Bike Air’. The real big success, however, came with the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 ‘Brick by Brick’ in 2025. This red version of the Air Jordan 4 also ranked high in our Sneaker of the Year poll.

The new 'Cinnabar' colorway features a sail upper with several red accents. For example on the eyelets, wings and the 'Bike Air' branding on the heel. In addition, we also see a mini-Swoosh at the front of the sneaker, and all of this sits on a black, red and white sole.
What is also notable is that Michael Jordan still has the tag attached to the Jordan 4. Is Michael Jordan starting a trend here?
Release Information
The Air Jordan 4 'Cinnabar' is expected to release on May 9, 2026. Keep an eye on the Sneakerjagers release calendar for updates on this and other releases.
