The Retro Jordan will be returning in 2020 with "Nike Air" as part of Jordan Brand's holiday lineup. While 1989's "Fire Red" Air Jordan 4 has been back on shelves a few times, first with a Mars Blackmon stamp in 2006, then without it in 2012, this year could mark the first time it's been retroed with "Nike Air" branding on the heel. The word making rounds courtesy of Soleheatonfeet, DJ Folk and Coley2xs is that the OG-style pair is penciled in for Black Friday.
The Air Jordan 4 is slated for a release on Black Friday 2020 (or November 27th, 2020), bringing with it the original "Nike Air" branding on the heel for the first time since its original debut in 1989. This Air Jordan 4 will be returning in OG form with "Nike Air" branded heels, making it the first time the pair re-released in original form since its debut back in 1989. It last dropped in 2012 with a Jumpman on the heels, and in 2006 as the "Mars" edition. These occurrences are getting rare by the month as most of the original Air Jordan catalog has been covered, but there's still the true re-issue of the Jordan 4 "Military Blue" ahead of us.
Jordan Shoes To Buy, There aren't many "firsts" left when it comes to re-releasing the original Air Jordans from Michael Jordan's playing career, but one could be in the works for the holiday season. This latest offering of the Nike Air Max 270 React features a White base upper highlighted with Pink and Yellow contrasting accents. Other details includes a Black Swoosh, matching rubber outsole, Grey lacestay with Red leather overlays. While that iteration covered the bases in terms of the colorway, it was differentiated from the OG with the Jumpman logo on the heel, the Mars Blackmon logo on the heel-tab, and the notorious paint cracking issue on the midsole.
