After a series of speculation and mock-ups, the Air Jordan 4 “Rare Air” has finally revealed itself ahead of the expected February drop, joining a massive list of must-have 2025 Jordan Releases.

Originally believed to be a reprisal of the Air Jordan 4 “Laser” releases of 2005, the “Rare Air” Jordan 4 will not feature such detail popularized by in the early-mid 2000s era of limited edition releases. Instead, the shoes will feature a full suede upper construction carrying a colorway of Black/Fire Red/Deep Royal Blue/Dark Smoke Grey/Tech Grey.

The logo selections are what make the Jordan 4 “Rare Air” so unique; not only will it feature the famed Nike Air on the heel plate, but the tongue label will be completely removable with additional options packaged with the shoes (it’s this feature that led many to believe that these were a variation of the Laser 4s). Without the patches, the square logo is defaults to a tonal all-black that could read “Rare Air”. There are options of white with a royal blue Jumpman and a varsity jacket chenille with MJ’s iconic 23 number.

Currently, a release date is expected for February 15th, 2025 for $215, coinciding with the 2025 NBA All-Star Game taking place at the Chase Center, home of the Golden State Warriors.
