Air Jordan 10 'Steel' Release Date (2025)
A classic back from 1994.ByAaron ShamimJun 13, 2025

The Air Jordan 10 'Steel' is lacing up for a long-awaited return on August 2nd, bringing back one of the most distinct original colorways from Michael Jordan’s mid-’90s comeback. Originally released in 1994, the Air Jordan 10 'Steel' was part of the original lineup designed during MJ’s first retirement, and was notable for its clean look and unique forefoot design. It last retroed in 2013, but this 2025 edition promises a more faithful nod to the OG, complete with that signature black-and-white color blocking and iconic striped outsole listing Jordan’s early career milestones.

The upcoming release features a white tumbled leather upper with black accents on the tongue, collar, and eyestays, while subtle steel grey hits on the outsole and lining deliver its namesake edge. The shoe’s most polarizing design element—the toe cap that was never in Tinker Hatfield’s original plans—also makes its return, continuing the legacy of a happy design accident. With its history-rich DNA and timeless palette, the Air Jordan 10 'Steel' remains a standout for collectors and those seeking a touch of understated heritage in their rotation.
