Jordan Brand is taking you back to ’89 with their next release. To celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Retro 4, they are dropping one of the most respected and classic colorways that make old Jordan lovers reminisce. The ‘Bred’ color scheme that we’ve loved and demanded so much over the years takes the iconic Jordan Retro 4 to another level. Like many other Jordan’s that people have deemed historic over the years by the unforgettable moments that his Airness had on the court, the ‘Bred’ Retro 4 became legendary on May 7th, 1989. As OG heads know, Jordan delivered one of the most legendary moments of his career when he hit “The Shot” over Craig Ehlo to eliminate the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 5 of the 1989 first-round NBA playoffs series.
As the years went by, Jordan rereleased these in 1999 and 2012, but this years release features the iconic “Nike Air” branding on the heel and this timeless silhouette is crafted to the specs of the 1989 release, which is as OG as it gets. The OG touches on sneakers make people go crazy. The “Nike Air” on the back of these puts them a totally different level than the 2012 pair and the OG hangtag that was dropped back then is just another detail that Jordan couldn’t miss. With this shoe being the definition of classic, you won’t want to miss out on grabbing your pair.
