We recently got a sneak peek at the upcoming 2024 “Military Blue” Air Jordan 4, thanks to sneaker-leaker @jfgrails. According to @jfgrails, this retro release will feature all the original details from the 1989 version, making it a highly anticipated release. Additionally, the Military Blue 4s will adopt the shape of the Nike SB x Air Jordan 4 “Pine Green,” which has received rave reviews.
UPDATE 7/24/2023: According to @sneakerfiles and @zsneakerheadz, the 2024 Air Jordan 4 “Military Blue” will have an “Off-White” upper and a similar cut/shape to the OG version.
ORIGINAL STORY April 20th, 2023: Air Jordan 4 “Military Blue” fans can rejoice as rumors suggest that this beloved sneaker will finally see a retro release in the summer of 2024. The excitement surrounding the return of the “Off White/Military Blue” colorway has been building for the past six months. Reliable sources, such as @zSneakerHeadz on Instagram and Sneaker Files, have broken the news about this highly anticipated release.
The Air Jordan 4 “Military Blue” last hit the shelves in 2012, and since then, fans have been eagerly waiting for its return. While NIKE, Inc. released a modified-for-golf version in 2021, it didn’t satisfy the demand for the original color scheme. The upcoming reissue is expected to stay true to the 1989 debut, with the shoe’s shape aligning with Jordan Brand’s “Remastered” series. The branding on the spine and outsole should feature the “Nike Air” logo. While it’s unclear if the sole units will have a yellow tint for a vintage look, sources indicate that the Jordan 4 “Military Blue” will be available for the whole family.
It’s important to note that the return of the popular Air Jordan is still speculative at this point. The final version, if it does release in the rumored timeframe, could differ from the initial mockups and unconfirmed descriptions. However, if the sneakers do drop, you can expect to find them on Nike SNKRS for a retail price of $210 USD.
UPDATE (09/29/2023): A release date has been set for May 11th, 2024. Stay tuned for more details on where to purchase the Air Jordan 4 “Military Blue.”
We can’t wait to see the Air Jordan 4 “Military Blue” make its comeback in 2024. The blend of nostalgia and classic design elements is sure to captivate sneakerheads and Jordan Brand fans alike. Keep an eye out for more updates on this highly anticipated release.
