Air Jordan 8 ‘Aqua’ Returns in July 2025

One of Jordan Brand’s most beloved colorways is making its long-awaited return. 

Air Jordan 8 ‘Aqua’ Returns in July

Introduction:

The iconic Air Jordan 8 ‘Aqua’ is set to re-release in full family sizing on July 19, 2025, according to early reports from @zsneakerheadz and House of Heat°. While official confirmation from Jordan Brand is still pending, the buzz around this drop is already hitting fever pitch.

Originally released in 1993 and famously worn by Michael Jordan during the NBA All-Star Game in Salt Lake City, the ‘Aqua’ 8s quickly became a cultural touchstone. The East may have narrowly lost that game 132-135, but the sneaker stole the spotlight with its bold colorway and distinctive design.

Design Details:

Since its debut, the Air Jordan 8 ‘Aqua’ has seen a few re-releases — in 2007, 2015, and 2018 — each offering subtle design tweaks. This 2025 edition is poised to be the most faithful recreation of the OG yet, bringing back the familiar Black, True Red, Iron Grey, Bright Concord, and Aquatone hues that made it a fan favorite.

However, eagle-eyed collectors might notice one key difference: the usually shimmering aqua blue and purple midsoles have been stripped of their sparkle, giving the sneaker a slightly more refined, mature finish. 

Release Info:

Whether you’re a longtime Jordan loyalist or new to the game, this drop is shaping up to be one of the year’s most exciting. Keep your eyes on Nike and select retailers as July 19 approaches — these retro legends won’t stay on shelves for long.
