While sneakerheads scoffed at the idea of a new take-down version of the Air Jordan 4 when images of the Air Jordan 4 RM emerged in early 2024, the reception of the subsequent colorways and releases has been much better. Jordan Brand knows exactly what it's doing with the model, draping it in color palettes all too familiar to sneakerheads, like the SB AJ4-adjacent Pine Green, the Black Metallic colorway, and the Black Cat rendition. A clean White Legend Blue colorway has appeared on the AJ4 RM.
Across the upper, Jordan Brand applies a clean mixture of neutral grey and white, with the former of the two shades found on the suede mudguard and vamp. Below this sits white leather on the toebox and heel, while ripstop nylon is placed on the midfoot panel. Above this is a large TPU cage in a cream hue, wrapping around the midfoot back to the heel to create the Nike Air-laden heel tab.
