A lot is going on in the Jumpman’s sneaker lineup in 2025, from the release of coveted collaborations to the return of some of the most famous colourways that have ever been released. Given all the fuss over these highly anticipated releases, it’s possible that you missed some of the underappreciated treasures that are coming out this year. Here are the top 7 most underrated Air Jordans of 2025 that deserve a second look.
Air Jordan 1 Method of Make “Metallic Silver”
The Jumpman’s Method of Make series is adding a women’s-exclusive Air Jordan 1 low to their lineup. The shoe offers unique cutout leather overlays atop a diamond-knit mesh base and 3D Swoosh branding at the sides. It’s a futuristic take on the AJ1 low silhouette that won’t go unnoticed.
Air Jordan 1 Low “Sail”
Female sneakerheads will adore the delicate “Sail” Air Jordan 1 Low colourway. The shoe is decorated with ornate pearls, beads, sequins, and turquoise stones, which add flair to the muted blue, blush, and light grey tones on the uppers.
Air Jordan 3 “Starfish”
Although the Air Jordan 3 “Starfish” features suede accents and canvas uppers akin to the 2024 Nina Chanel Abney AJ3 collaboration, its two-toned palette offers it a distinctive and striking look that is perfect for the summer.
