Air Jordan 40 "White Black Vast Grey" HM9931-100

Marking four decades of Air Jordan innovation, the AJ40 arrives with big expectations—and delivers a tech-forward basketball build that feels new from the first step. Dressed in a clean “White Black Vast Grey” colourway, this pair keeps the heritage nods subtle while pushing performance into fresh territory.

The upper combines premium white leather with black accents on the collar and heel. Vast Grey fills in the gaps with neutral contrast, while hits of silver branding remind you this is a milestone release. Clean lines and minimal colour blocking help the new silhouette stand out without shouting.

But the real shift happens underfoot. For the first time in the Jordan line, the Air Jordan 40 features a full-length Zoom Strobel unit layered over ZoomX foam. That’s two of Nike’s most responsive cushioning platforms working together. Expect springy step-in comfort and enough energy return to handle hours of play. Support comes from internal lockdown straps and sculpted midfoot panels, while the outsole introduces a reworked herringbone pattern for stop-and-go traction.

It’s a basketball-first build with legacy touches in all the right places. Whether you’re adding it to your Jordan archive or putting it straight into rotation, this release proves the line isn’t slowing down at 40.
