Jordan Brand is bringing the Jordan Heir Series 2 WNBA ‘Birds of Paradise’ to its Fall 2026 women’s lineup, a floral-inspired colorway built on a modern basketball silhouette with details that connect directly to women’s professional basketball. The release pairs a warm, botanical color story with functional court construction, making it one of the more distinct entries in the brand’s upcoming seasonal calendar.
Jordan Brand launched in 1984 as a Nike subsidiary centered on Michael Jordan’s professional basketball career, and it has grown into one of the most recognized names in sneaker culture worldwide. The brand built its foundation on retro basketball silhouettes tied to Jordan’s playing years, but over time it has expanded into performance models designed for a new generation of players and consumers. That expansion includes the Heir series, a relatively newer line of basketball silhouettes that Jordan Brand has developed to sit alongside its classic retro catalog. The Heir Series 2 is part of that ongoing effort to build modern performance footwear with lifestyle crossover appeal, positioned for both on-court use and everyday wear.
WNBA partnerships have become a more consistent and visible part of Jordan Brand’s output in recent years. The brand has dedicated colorways and special editions to women’s professional basketball, using the WNBA platform to reach a wider audience and to signal genuine investment in the women’s game. The ‘Birds of Paradise’ colorway fits into this approach, taking its name from the tropical flower known for its bright warm tones and bold shape. The shoe builds on a black leather and mesh upper, with a Coconut Milk lace panel cutting through the darker base to provide contrast. The lower portions carry the warm color blocking that ties the full design back to the botanical theme.
The Jordan Heir Series 2 WNBA ‘Birds of Paradise’ is slated for Fall 2026. No price or specific release date has been confirmed yet, but check back here and at authorized Jordan Brand retailers for updates as the release window approaches. If this one has your attention, it is worth exploring more from Jordan Brand’s women’s basketball lineup and the broader Heir series while you wait.
