Air Jordan 4 Retro ‘Lightning’

Unlike its “Thunder” counterpart, which re-released in 2012, the “Lightning” Jordan 4 has never been reissued… until now. Recent on-foot endorsements from Travis Scott have brought new interest to the Air Jordan 4, but the sneaker’s trademark bright and grey-accented arrangement has garnered attention all on its own over the last 14 years.

Mesh detailing and hardware throughout “Lightning” are stark dark in contrast, with the latter component opting for a glossy finish. Profile flaps, labels on the tongue, Jumpman logos on the heel, and most of the outsole further interrupt the Tour Yellow tonal suede makeup in shades of grey. While not easily visible when the shoes are being worn, the Tour Yellow branding on the tread deliver a cherished touch to this grail-status-worthy pair.
