The "Raptors" Air Jordan 4 will make its retail debut this Saturday, August 18 at sneaker shops across the country, but it doesn't appear the kicks will be evenly distributed.
Judging from Foot Locker's release locator, the Raptors Air Jordan 4 will be available at nearly every location under the sun, whereas the Footaction locations that will have the sneakers in stock are few and far between.
Over the years Jordan Brand has released several NBA team-inspired Air Jordans (outside of the familiar Bulls colorways) including a "New York Knicks" Air Jordan 1, "Cavs" Air Jordan 4, "Pistons" Air Jordan 6, and a "Phoenix Suns" Air Jordan 8, just to name a few. Next up is the Toronto Raptors edition of the beloved Air Jordan 4.
Just like the "Raptors" Air Jordan 7 that released in 2012, this upcoming sneaker features a black nubuck upper accompanied by hits of red and purple which is more in tune with their classic dribbling dino logo. It was originally believed that this particular Air Jordan 4 colorway was an OVO collab, compelte with Drake's signature under the Jumpman on the tongue, but the retail version won't include any nods to the Toronto native.
Again, look for the "Raptors" Air Jordan 4 to arrive at Jordan Brand retailers tomorrow, August 18, for the retail price of $200.
