Aug 27–Sep 2 Drop Radar: AJ8 "Chrome," Straycat & F50 (2026)

Five priced US drops land from Aug 27 through Aug 29. The Air Jordan 8 "Chrome" is the headliner: Nike SNKRS lists it for 2:00 PM ET (18:00 UTC) at $215. Other 10:00 AM EDT launches sit at 14:00 UTC below. Supreme x Nike Air Max 2001 Air Ecstasy also hits Aug 27 via Supreme, but retail price stays unconfirmed, so it stays off the priced board.

Item spotlight

The Air Jordan 8 "Chrome" returns the 2003 Black/Light Graphite colorway with black nubuck, chrome hardware and midsole hits, a grey chenille tongue patch, crossover straps, and Nike Air in the heel and forefoot. Jordan Brand is running full family sizing. 8 9

Resale forecast

The working estimate is $280–360 after the $215 retail launch. Hype is high, cop difficulty is hard, and confidence is low. A decade-plus gap on this cult colorway supports a mid premium, but no live bid, ask, or completed sale was readable at publish time. Treat the range as an editorial estimate, not a guarantee.
