Retired NBA star Rajon Rondo recently shared a video online that left sneakerheads buzzing. The former point guard received a pair of the ultra-limited All The Smoke Air Jordan 4s, custom-crafted by none other than The Shoe Surgeon.

The Shoe Surgeon, known for his intricate and luxurious customizations, crafted this special pair for Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson's popular podcast, All The Smoke, as they just secured a deal with Draft Kings. Despite being recently named in a legal case by luxury brand Goyard, The Shoe Surgeon continues to create jaw-dropping custom sneakers.

The All The Smoke Air Jordan 4 features a clean black, white, and grey palette reminiscent of the upcoming Air Jordan 4 White Thunder. The upper is a blend of tumbled leather, premium suede, and snakeskin, giving the shoe a distinct and luxurious feel. The mudguard is finished in suede, while the toe and midfoot panels boast high-quality leather. The collar, wrapped in snakeskin, adds an extra layer of sophistication.

White accents are prominently featured on the tongue and midfoot netting panels, creating a striking contrast with the darker hues of the upper. Custom logos of The Shoe Surgeon, Draft Kings, and All The Smoke are proudly displayed on the tongue, highlighting the unique collaboration. A notable detail is the embroidered date 10-21-19 on the lateral side, marking the inaugural episode of the All The Smoke podcast. This date is a significant nod to the origins of Barnes and Jackson's venture into the podcasting world.

The finishing touches on this exclusive pair include a custom All The Smoke heel tab, specially designed packaging that showcases co-branding for the podcast and The Shoe Surgeon, and a hangtag that denotes the pair's number, as only 93 were made.

This pair will be exclusive to friends and family of the All The Smoke podcast, though the podcast website states that those who sign up for the All The Smoke newsletter will earn a chance at winning the pair. For those who want a more attainable AJ4, plenty of colorways on the horizon, including the Paris, White Thunder, Fear, and a collaboration with A Ma Maniere.
