The Air Jordan 41 "Amethyst" Releases Holiday 2026

Jordan Brand is expanding its Gemstone Collection with the Air Jordan 41 "Amethyst," a colorway that ties directly to February's birthstone and a nod to Michael Jordan's birth month. The connection gives the release more context than a standard seasonal colorway, grounding the purple palette in a specific piece of Jordan Brand lore.

Glossy metallic purple panels run across the toe box and down the sides of a black mesh upper, with the exposed mesh providing both contrast and breathability between the structured overlays. Light metallic blue lands on the top eyelets and the Jumpman tongue logo, adding a secondary accent that keeps the color story from reading as flat. Black and white laces round out the upper, adding a graphic note without competing with the primary palette. Underfoot, the cushioning setup carries over from other Air Jordan 41 releases, pairing a ZoomX foam midsole with full-length Zoom Strobel cushioning and an additional Air Zoom unit in the heel.
