This Air Jordan 4 is an immediate hit.

One of the best Jumpman silhouettes is certainly the Air Jordan 4. Overall, this is a shoe that has received its fair share of incredible offerings over the years. Although there are other amazing silhouettes from Jordan Brand, the Jordan 4 definitely stands out. It was a nice evolution on the Air Jordan 3, and it remains an iconic offering. The hype for this shoe simply will not die off. Whenever a new colorway is released, fans flock to it. Consequently, Jumpman continues to make new and improved versions of the classic model.

That said, there are a ton of great colorways that could receive a retro. Overall, most of the OG color schemes have already gotten said retros. Subsequently, it would be redundant to keep releasing them. However, there are a few amazing Air Jordan 4 models that were released once, only to never be heard from again. Jumpman is aware of this, and they know that some sneakerheads have been clamoring for new retros. A great example of their awareness is the return of the Air Jordan 4 "Thunder."
