Official Images of the Levi’s x Air Jordan 3 ‘Denim’ Pack Revealed

Update January 9, 2026 – We’ve had to wait a while, but the Levi’s x Air Jordan 3 ‘Denim’ pack, consisting of three colorways, is finally on the way. The collaboration was first revealed by Spike Lee a few months ago, and now we get an official lookbook of the release, once again starring Lee in the lead role.

In the lookbook, we see a full capsule collection featuring hoodies, jerseys, graphic tees, denim tops, and jeans. The collection emphasizes the logos of both brands and carries a vintage 1980s and 1990s aesthetic, with skate culture at its core.

A total of three colorways are expected. The first two, ‘Indigo Denim’ and ‘Sail’, have already been previewed over the past few weeks. They are now joined by a ‘Black Denim’ colorway, which strongly resembles the classic ‘Black Cement’ color scheme. In addition, a fourth colorway appears, dressed in white with a blue tongue..

The release of the Jordan 3 x Levi's collection happens in stages and begins in China on 24 January with the ‘Year of the Horse’ edition.

Shortly after, the LA-exclusive pair makes its debut on 13 February. All leading up to the grand global launch across SNKRS and Levi’s on 20 February 2026.

Spike Lee Spotted in the Levi's x Air Jordan 3 'Denim'

Original post November 16, 2025 - After the successful release of the Levi’s x Nike Air Max 95 earlier this spring, and with a possible 2025 restock, we can now look forward to an Air Jordan 3 dressed in denim. The first rumors about this release surfaced earlier this year, but during a recent New York Knicks game, none other than Spike Lee was spotted wearing the sneaker.

The sneaker features a denim upper in various shades of blue and indigo. On the overlays at the tongue and heel, the iconic elephant print appears, a signature detail of the Air Jordan 3. Black leather elements add contrast, along with the red Levi’s tag on the lace panel.

The heel tab showcases white Nike Air branding that matches the midsole, while the tongue features the Jumpman logo.

The Levi’s x Air Jordan 3 'Denim' does not yet have an official release date. However, the model is expected to drop in spring 2026 at Nike.

Check out the first images below, and stay tuned to the Sneakerjagers news page for updates on this release.
