Air Jordan 14 Low 'Black Pack' — Release Date, Price & The Story

The drop at a glance

The story

Jordan Brand is closing 2026 with a four-model 'Black Pack' celebrating the late-era game shoes — the Air Jordan 14 Low and Air Jordan 16 on October 3, with the 15 and 17 Low following November 7. Each pair gets a premium blacked-out treatment with exotic-style textures at $240, leaning luxury rather than straight retro.

The 14 debuted on MJ's feet for the 1998 'Last Shot,' while the 16 — the mustard 'Ginger' pair — only saw MJ during the 2001 Wizards comeback preseason before he debuted the new Air Jordan 17 for the regular-season return. These are models that rarely headline a holiday season, and limiting distribution to NBHD boutiques and SNKRS positions this as a collector's capsule.

Hype is moderate but supply will be tight; the 16 is the pack's sleeper for older heads while the 14 Low ostrich draws the luxury-materials crowd.

The deep cuts

• The AJ16's signature feature is a removable magnetic lace shroud — designer Wilson Smith III framed it as symbolizing MJ's move from the court to the front office.
• MJ's preseason AJ16 'Ginger' pulled its mustard suede gaiter from Timberland boots — one of the oddest on-court Jordans the man himself ever wore.
• The full Black Pack is four models in exotic-look textures — ostrich, snakeskin, gator-style: AJ14 Low and AJ16 on October 3, AJ15 and AJ17 Low on November 7, all $240.
• The AJ14 anchoring the pack was co-designed by Tinker Hatfield and Mark Smith, down to a collar badge that mimics Ferrari's crest.
