The year was 1989, and Tinker Hatfield was back at his tricks storming up an idea for the air jordan 4. How would he top the Air Jordan III? Air Jordan Original 4 IV MilitaryTinker wanted to get further into performance, rather than some other inspiration that was used on the last three models.

The Air Jordan IV was the first in the line that had an over-molded mesh. The reason for this is, the consumer would think the shoe was made cheap. So what Tinker did was dip the mesh in a soft plastic and blew air through it to clear out the plastic in between.

When the Air Jordan 4 was first released in 1989, people disliked the shoe, said it looked very ugly. Overtime the model grew on a lot of people. Another feature of the AJ IVs was the capability to lace your IVs in 18 different patterns. This gave your IVs your own style. Air jordan 4 Fire RedThe overall personality of the Air Jordan 4 was saying “get back to work”. Michael was a father and husband for the first time in his life, and since the Air Jordan III was such a luxurious model, MJ and Tinker wanted to bring back to the original draw board.

The 23rd anniversary of the Air Jordan 4 is being celebrated in a tremendous way. With several OG models already scheduled to relaunch later on this year, Jordan Brand isn't stopping there. In honor of Spike Lee's contribution to the shoe, JB has designed a limited edition "Knicks" version of the silhouette which will be available at Jordan Brand retailers on May 12th. Let us know if you'll be copping next month.http://www.jordan4cement.org/air-jordan-retro-4-c-4.html
