Air Jordan 4
Let's talk about a legend in the sneaker world: the Air Jordan 4 Retro. For those of you who appreciate a mix of history, style and performance in kicks, this one’s for you.
Designed by Tinker Hatfield, the OG Air Jordan 4 debuted in 1989 during a pivotal season in Michael Jordan’s illustrious basketball career. With its overhauled design and enhanced functionality, the sneaker was an instant hit both on and off the court. The introduction of mesh panels, wing laces, and superior cushioning improved its performance, while unique design elements like the visible Air Sole and "Flight" logo added to its aesthetic appeal. It’s the shoe MJ wore when he made "The Shot," one of the most iconic moments in NBA history, which only added to its legend.

Do Air Jordan 4s Run Big?
Air Jordan 4s generally fit true to size for most wearers, offering a snug and supportive feel. However, if you have wider feet or prefer extra room, consider going up half a size, especially since the shoe's padded design can feel slightly tight to some. Trying them on in person is ideal for ensuring the best fit, and visiting a Hibbett store can help you make the perfect choice. Keep in mind that some breaking-in may be needed, and the lacing system allows for adjustment to achieve a more personalized fit.
Why are Jordan 4s So Popular?
The Air Jordan 4 remains incredibly popular due to its bold design, cultural significance and lasting impact on sneaker culture. Released in 1989, it was the first Jordan shoe to feature a visible Air unit and mesh panels, adding both style and functionality. Its retro appeal and ties to Michael Jordan's iconic career moments make it a fan favorite. High-profile collaborations and limited-edition releases continue to drive demand, keeping the Jordan 4 relevant to sneakerheads and casual fans alike.
