Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 "Sail" Releases Summer 2026

Nigel Sylvester and Jordan Brand kicked off the brand’s 40th-anniversary celebrations in style with an exclusive dinner unveiling their collaborative "Brick By Brick" collection. Already one of the year's most anticipated projects, the event showcased the Air Jordan 4 centerpiece alongside a special capsule of apparel. However, the evening’s biggest surprise was the unexpected reveal of an alternate colorway of the Air Jordan 4, which Sis now confirmed to release in Summer 2026.

The alternate pair—tentatively dubbed "Sail"—glimpsed only briefly beneath Sylvester’s baggy denim, shares a similar structure to the classic "Fire Red" OG. However, it replaces the Bulls-red accents with the brick-orange hues central to the collaboration’s theme. While full visuals are yet to surface, zSneakerheadz + Sneaker Files have shed some light on the official color blocking; mock-ups provide a speculative look at the design. Fans should note that the retail iteration may differ slightly when it finally hits shelves.

Stay tuned for more details on the next Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 as the year progresses.
