The Iconic Colorway Gets a Modern Update
The sneaker world is buzzing with excitement as Jordan Brand prepares to re-release one of its most legendary models in a refreshed "Reimagined" version. The Air Jordan 4 "Reimagined Bred" brings back the timeless black/red colorway with premium materials and subtle contemporary updates.
Key Features:
- Authentic premium leather upper replacing traditional nubuck
- Classic black and "Bred" (black/red) color scheme
- Redesigned wing eyelets for improved comfort

Why This Drop Matters
Originally released during the 1989 NBA season, Michael Jordan wore the Bred AJ4 (short for "Black/RED") during some significant games. This sneaker was instrumental in solidifying the Jumpman brand as a cultural phenomenon beyond basketball.
The Reimagined series follows Jordan Brand's successful formula with DMP
