The Air Jordan 40 Drops in Two Stylish New Looks: “Blue Suede” and “Dusty Rose”

 

Jordan Brand is stepping into the future with the all-new Air Jordan 40, and it’s kicking things off with two bold and stylish colorways — “Blue Suede” and “Dusty Rose.” Both versions offer fresh vibes but are built with the same high-performance tech that makes this model a big leap forward in the Jordan legacy.

These are the first Jordans to feature a full-length ZoomX foam with a Zoom Strobel unit, giving you a soft, bouncy feel and tons of energy return. Whether you’re playing on the court or walking all day, the comfort is next-level.

The Air Jordan 40 also includes a mix of throwback Jordan design elements:

• The tongue is inspired by the Air Jordan 5

• The heel clip takes cues from the Air Jordan 3

• Reflective touches give a nod to the Air Jordan 13
  Add in a new "40" logo and a sharp, athletic build with 360-degree webbing and a grippy 40-degree traction pattern, and you’ve got a sneaker that’s all about performance and style.

Let’s break down the two colorways:

🔹 Air Jordan 40 “Blue Suede” – Releasing August 20, 2025

This version keeps it cool and classy. The upper features a soft Light Armory Blue suede, balanced with black nubuck details on the collar, heel, and laces. It’s sporty but clean — easy to wear with anything. A white midsole and subtle gray-blue accents give it a polished, everyday look.

🌸 Air Jordan 40 “Dusty Rose” – Releasing September 20, 2025

This one makes a bold statement. The entire upper is covered in Light Arctic Pink, using a mix of shiny patent leather and pebbled leather for texture and shine. It feels both soft and strong, feminine and fierce. Black and Anthracite accents on the sole and tongue help balance the color, without taking away from the bold pink style.

While both sneakers have the same high-tech base, they each tell a different story. One is subtle and classic, the other loud and fashion-forward. Together, they show that the Air Jordan 40 isn’t just about performance — it’s also about personal style.
