Quick Summary
Jordan Brand has confirmed the Air Jordan 6 Retro "Sashiko" as part of its Summer 2026 lineup, bringing a craft-inspired textile treatment to one of the line's most recognizable silhouettes. The colorway draws on sashiko, a traditional Japanese embroidery technique known for its geometric cross-stitch patterns, translating that aesthetic into a sneaker release built around a "Pale Ivory / Multi-Colour / Work Blue / White" palette.
Construction details lean heavily on textile and stitching work throughout. Sashiko-style stitching runs across the heel tab, while patterned inner collar padding and a textile tongue patch featuring cross-stitch motifs reinforce the theme across the upper. The ivory base keeps the palette soft, with the Work Blue and pastel accents providing measured contrast at key points. Packaging adds another layer to the release, with a special two-tone blue-and-cream Jordan box accompanying the pair. The release is currently expected to be region-exclusive, with availability likely limited to Asia.
The Air Jordan 6 Retro "Sashiko" is set to release during Summer 2026 via Nike and select Jordan Brand retailers. A retail price has not yet been confirmed. To stay informed on all things Jordan Brand and to stay up to date with the latest releases, connect with us on Instagram and Twitter.
