Easy Otabor's Infinite Archives x Air Jordan 17 Low Collection Expected September 2025

The Air Jordan 17 has emerged as one of the most surprising hits of the year, contrary to the culture's disdain for silhouettes curated outside of Mike's tenure in Chicago, a sky-high retail price point, and an overall plummet in Jordan Brand interest. Despite this, both the “Lightning” and “UNC” colorways quickly sold out, demonstrating strong consumer interest in the 2002 design. The Infinite Archives x Air Jordan 17 Low will be released in 2025.

For those unfamiliar, Infinite Archives is a brand that lives up to its name by bringing historical themes into a modern context. This collaboration with the Air Jordan 17 marks a natural progression for the brand, serving as its first official bridge to Nike’s headquarters in Beaverton. Founded by Easy Atabor, Infinite Archives has deep connections within the industry, collaborating with notable figures like Don C and Virgil Abloh at Chicago’s RSVP, Hiroshi Fujiwara, and KAWS on various projects.

The pair will arrive in a color combination of Beach/Metallic Silver/Black, seen below is a pair that is likely the one that is set to release worn by Easy Otabor during the Paris Fashion Week. Otabor took to Instagram to share that his Air Jordan 17 Low was partly inspired by Mike Bibby's Player-Exclusive pairs from his days with the Sacramento Kings.

On Friday, April 18, Otabor took to social media to shared a "University Red"-accented edition of his impending collaboration. The pair features the same color-blocking as the Air Jordan spotted during Paris Fashion Week, bearing semblance to some of the color schemes from the sneaker's original run.

Unfortunately the "University Red" colorway is not expected to release. Keep an eye on our Jordan Release Dates Calendar for further updates, and expect other pairs from the project to release via the Nike SNKRS app throughout September for $300 a pair.
