ORIGINAL STORY April 20th, 2023

Air Jordan 4 “Military Blue” fans rejoice!: The beloved sneaker is rumored to finally see a retro come Summer 2024.

If you’ve been following footwear for at least the last handful of years, rumors of the “Off White/Military Blue” pair returning are nothing new, but fever over the original color scheme has grown exponentially over the last six months. Reliable early sneaker information outlets @zSneakerHeadz on Instagram and Sneaker Files broke the rumor.

The last time the “Military Blue” Ar Jordan saw a retail launch was in 2012. NIKE, Inc. released a modified-for-golf version of the style in September 2021, much to the disappointment of many eager fans. The next reissue of the pair, however, is expected to feature near one-to-one specifications to the debut from 1989. The shape of the shoe should fall in line with Jordan Brand’s “Remastered” series, while branding on the spine and outsole should read “Nike Air.” There’s no word as to whether or not the sole units will feature a yellow tint for a “vintage” aesthetic, but sources state the Jordan 4 “Military Blue” will release for the whole family.

Please note that the return of the popular Air Jordan is purely speculative as of this writing. The final version – if one even releases in the rumored timeframe – may differ from initial mockups and unconfirmed descriptions. If the sneakers do drop, however, they’ll surely land on Nike SNKRS for $210 USD.
