In the pantheon of sneaker royalty, few silhouettes command as much respect as the Jordan 4, and few colorways are as iconic as the original "Bred." For 2024, Jordan Brand is set to unleash a storm with the Air Jordan 4 "Reimagined Bred,"

The iconic "Bred" colorway returns with a reimagined premium leather construction.
A Legacy Forged in the 1989 Season
The original Air Jordan 4 "Bred," released in 1989, is steeped in history. It was the shoe Michael Jordan wore when he hit "The Shot"—a series-clinching, buzzer-beating jumper over Craig Ehlo to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers in the first round of the playoffs. This single moment immortalized the shoe, cementing its status as a grail for collectors and basketball fans alike.
Unlike other retro releases that simply replicate the original, the "Reimagined" series aims to recreate the *feeling* of unboxing a Jordan sneaker for the first time in the late '80s and early '90s. This means new materials, new construction techniques, and a fresh perspective on a classic.
What Makes It "Reimagined"?
The most significant departure from the original is the material palette. Traditionally, the "Bred" 4 featured a mix of durable nubuck and mesh.full-grain premium leather
