Air Jordan 4 "Bred" U.S. Football Cleats Release Nov. 27

If you're a diehard Air Jordan 4 fan, you've likely had the Black Friday re-release of the original "Bred" pair marked on your calendar for more than a couple of months. What you might not have known is that Jordan Brand is dropping a similar set of U.S. football cleats on the same day.

Air Jordan footwear modified for sports outside of basketball isn't anything new, but the launch of a "Bred" AJ4 TD cleat marks an exciting moment for Team Jumpman as it presents one of Michael Jordan's most-beloved sneakers for a different space. The pair retooled for the gridiron abandons traditional nubuck construction across the upper in favor of a plush leather build that's more aligned with old school athletic gear. The color-blocking, however, follows the same Chicago Bulls-friendly "Black/Cement Grey/White/Fire Red" scheme that debuted in 1989.

Underfoot, the visible Nike Air-assisted sole unit is replaced with a more traditional midsole and studded plate configuration. The sole unit follows the Air Jordan 4's legendary "Bred" look. Elsewhere, however, branding on the spine sees Jumpman logos instead of "Nike Air" text as is the case on the retro sneaker also launching on Friday, Nov. 27.

Enjoy official images of the U.S. football cleats ahead. Pairs will be available on Nike SNKRS beginning on Black Friday for $205. It's possible the pair will appear on-field throughout the 2026 NFL season and postseason.
