Nike Air Jordan 4 (IV)

The Air Jordan IV was designed by Tinker Hatfield and released in 1989. The style was geared more towards performance and it also featured the air bubble unit. Spike Lee was also seen in commercials, and the Air Jordan IV was also seen in his movie "Do The Right Thing". Everyone should remember the part from the movie that featured the Air Jordan IV. That part alone probably made you want to buy a pair. The retail price was $110.00.

In 1999, the Air Jordan IV was retroed in two colorways (white/black and black/cement grey). Retail was $100.00. These featured the old school Nike hang tag, and "NIKE AIR" on the back. Since these looked like the originals they sold out quick, and they are still highly sought after. Many people say the Air Jordan IV wasn’t the same once the "NIKE AIR" was replaced with the jumpman logo. Other colorways of the Air Jordan IV were released, but none can compare to the original colorways.

There are some Air Jordan IV’s that are very exclusive. The Undefeated and the Eminem Air Jordan IV are very very RARE. The Undefeated pair is limited to 72 pairs and 4 sample pairs floating around. The Eminem pair is limited to 50 pairs, and this pair is absolutely fresh. These two pairs together would run you $8,000+ (yikes!).

The Air Jordan IV has many colorways available now, and this style goes down in history!
