The Air Jordan 40 is easily one of our favorite mainline Jumpman sneakers in years. The clean, simple look carries plenty of Jordan DNA in an elegant package. This week, the model has surfaced in a new “Metallic Copper” style, coming soon.
The Air Jordan 40 debuted in 2025 as a milestone model celebrating four decades of the Air Jordan franchise while pushing performance innovation forward. Designed for the modern game, it became the first Jordan shoe to combine full-length ZoomX foam with a Zoom Strobel unit, delivering enhanced responsiveness on court. The silhouette blends subtle references to earlier Air Jordans with a cleaner, future-focused aesthetic, emphasizing movement and versatility. The model has paid homage to its predecessors through special colors like the “Infrared” and “Ferrari” styles, and is now settling into simpler palettes for 2026. Seen here in a “Metallic Copper” look, this pair brings a shimmering upper to the performance shoe, set against a black accent for a striking, yet minimal new look.
