IT'S LIGHT WORK.
The Air Jordan XXXVI isn't just the next up in the iconic franchise; it's an expression of the drive and energy that sparked a basketball revolution. It's one of the lightest Air Jordan game shoes to date, featuring a minimal but durable Leno-Weave upper reinforced with a TPU ribbon. It also comes equipped with a full-length Zoom Air Strobel unit stitched directly to the upper, stacked with a Zoom Air unit underneath the forefoot, providing a sensation of energy return and elite responsiveness. Step on the court with the confidence that whatever you do—it's light work.

Light Flex
A minimal but durable Jacquard Leno-Weave upper paired with a dynamic flexible tongue provides a lightweight fit and plush comfort.
Light Feel, Big Energy
A full-length Zoom Air Strobel unit is stitched directly to the upper, sitting right under your foot to minimize weight. An energy-returning Zoom Air unit is stacked underneath the forefoot to add an extra burst of responsiveness off the dribble.
Lightning Quick
A multidirectional outsole pattern provides stop-and-go traction for players who stay on their toes and use quickness to get to their spots.
Secure for Takeoff
A 2-loop band system paired with high sidewalls provides side-to-side stability, whether you're cutting off the ball on defense or taking off to finish on offense
A hollowed-out section between the outsole and midsole helps reduce weight and exposes the shoe's stabilizing shank (a piece of durable plastic that helps keep the shoe from twisting).
