The Jumpman Diamond will be the first to launch on Aug. 8 in China, donning a white, red and gold color palette. The look features an intricate design on the upper revealing the flags of the participating nations.
Next up is the collection’s Air Jordan 33 SE that combines a clean white and gold color scheme with flag markings on the upper’s base layer. This pair is scheduled to release on Aug. 22 in China.
The classic Air Jordan 12 joins the special edition lineup, featuring a similar color scheme as the two aforementioned sneakers. The shoe’s standout feature are the five Chinese characters that translate to “Love The Game” on the heel’s pull tab. This look releases on Aug. 24 in China.
Rounding out the collection is the fan-favorite Air Jordan 4, covered in a vibrant crimson hue with contrasting navy blue details. The shoe’s mesh-filled cutouts are now replaced with new graphics inspired by the national flags from the participants of the basketball tournament. It releases in China on Sept. 1.
