The Air Jordan 4, Michael Jordan’s fourth signature shoe, debuted in 1989 in February during the 1989 NBA All-Star Game in Houston. 

The Jordan 4 was the second Jordan model designed by legend Tinker Hatfield. It felt like the perfect evolution of the Air Jordan 3. The shoe also featured a visible Air Max cushioning unit, the iconic netting on the upper, and plastic lace eyelet wings.

The Jordan 4 holds up surprisingly well as an on-court performer. There are of course better performance models nowadays, but, if you are looking for a pair of retro Jordans to hoop in, and you love the Air Jordan 4, go right ahead. 

AVERAGE RETAIL PRICE: $190

Air Jordan 4 Military Black

Air Jordan 4 Military Black Review

The Air Jordan 4 Military Black is another version of a colorway released ten years ago. And the crazy part is that Chris has a video review of those as well. It’s been a long time coming.

Air Jordan 4 Red Thunder Review

The Air Jordan 4 Red Thunder is still very much well-anticipated, but the hype is not real. Jordan Brand has to be better in making these shoes, especially when we, the consumers, are putting our hard-earned money into their wallets. One thing we can recommend right off the bat is that you need to check your pair once you get

Air Jordan 4 Lightning

Air Jordan 4 Lightning 2021 Review

The Air Jordan 4 Lightning is back and it’s back with a vengeance. First released in 2006, this colorway has been anticipated by many of OG Jordan Brand fans and hypebeasts alike. Not a lot of shoes do that nowadays. However, if you know, you know. There’s a lot more to this shoe than the fire colorway and classic silhouette.

Air Jordan 4 White Oreo

Air Jordan 4 White Oreo Review

The Air Jordan 4 White Oreo is not a collaboration with another brand, but the internet has its ways. This, for many, is a classic colorway, even though it isn’t an original one.

Air Jordan 4 University Blue Review

Since Michael Jordan hails from UNC, it’s no wonder that a lot of his signatures have featured the university blue color scheme. But this one’s special because it combines another Air Jordan classic, the White Cement 4.
