Jordan Heir Duke IO0410-114 SneakerNews.com

The UNC Tar Heels will always be the college basketball program most connected to Jordan Brand, but in the modern era, their hated rival in Duke isn’t far behind. Jayson Tatum and Zion Williamson – two of the brand’s three signature athletes – once roamed the school’s Durham, North Carolina campus, not to mention Orlando Magic star Paolo Banchero. In lieu of a signature model of his own (for now), we can definitely see Paolo lacing up this “Duke” Jordan Heir next season.

Aligning perfectly with Blue Devils’ uniforms, the sneaker features a white mixed-media base, blue cage, and black hits on the tongue, lining, and forefoot. While informed by insights from Jordan Brand’s sponsored women hoopers, the Jordan Heir is touted as a unisex model suitable for players of all positions. Importantly, the Heir was the subject of the first ever Paolo Banchero shoe release earlier this year; a “Seattle Rotary” edition inspired by his AAU team.

The Jordan Heir “Duke” retails for $110 and is expected to release Fall 2025 (between July-September) in unisex sizing. See official images below and hit our Jordan Release Dates 2025 page to preview more upcoming hoops shoes.
