We spotted the much-anticipated upcoming drop on the streets of London, so, of course, we had to grab a few pics and share with the world. From the looks of it, the Big Smoke-inspired Air Jordan 4 celebrates the UK capital with a grey and black nubuck upper with terracotta, hemp and smokey grey accents on the colourway, taking on the gritty hues of the city and featuring a custom heel tab with a bespoke “LDN” branding written on top of the signature “AIR”.

The Jordan Brand is no stranger to a city-based release, having dropped a Jordan 1 Low “Paris” and a Jordan 5 “Shanghai” in the past, so it’s only fair for London to join the lineup.

First released in 1989, the original Air Jordan 4 was the first global Air Jordan release as well as the first shoe to take on the brand’s signature “over-moulded” mesh and the Nike Air logo on the heel. The shoe cemented itself in the culture when it appeared in Spike Lee’s film “Do the Right Thing”, going beyond the means of basketball.

The shoe is set to drop September 19th.
