Air Jordan IV “Black/Cement” - May 4th 2019

[abdc9]

I tried ironing these. It worked ok I guess. the netting on these is done so it doesn’t matter anyway.

I’m about to do this! Thanks for the inspiration. I’ve pretty much beat my WC4s so might as well give it a try.

Anybody saying the remasters don’t have that bad of a curly toe just look at those ironing pics. The difference is massive and that’s how 4’s should look, period. Good job sir. Those look amazing. Making me actually wanna buy a slightly used pair and do that.

 

[HellRazor1978]

I like how the slant looks on 3’s and 4’s, and sorta on the 5’s. Does NOT look good on 6’s though.

 

[promac]

Interested if the paint cracking issue will be a thing on these, this time around.

When was the last time you bought and wore a Jordan 4?

Rhetorical question, obviously it’s been a while

 

[suchafraud23]

We haven't seen any real pics yet, so I don't understand how anyone can be making any conclusions yet....

I know y’all like to play that game. The shoe we seeing is it

That’s what we getting

Didn’t have the OG

But I had the 99 and that toe box ain’t it...but we can pretend like that looks good I guess

Need to find a middle ground

Grey cutout lines are more important on these than any other model/colorway, other than the 11.

Durabuck looks so off. White cuts are hella necessary at this point

This times INFINITY.

The cut out lines, are MANDATORY.

If they ain't lookin' EXACTLY like this...

WE DON'T NEED EM NIKE, & JORDAN BRAND.

That **** is CRUCIAL.

Yes, this is one of my personal pairs, and yes I'm STILL gonna cop the 2019's. Only because they're my favorite Jordan, of all-time. I won't be happy, or satisfied tho.

From what it sounds like to me, JB execs are more interested in harassing subordinates than putting out great shoes. Thats why I dont see them fixing these anytime soon. Jordan needs to stop hiring his homeboys and maybe start hiring people that care. But at the end of the day he wont have a reason to care because yall will buy them up regardless.

Damn. These pics just made it so I’m almost for sure not buying these because no way they’re gonna look like this. That toebox and overall shape is just perfection.

More for me.... Shrug

 

[da r entertainment]

The plan is to purchase these on that Saturday morning and I'll be rocking them by Saturday evening #shrugs

Screw that, I'm lacing them up in foot locker, haha

 

[headdetective]

I’ll lace em up when they arrive at my doorstep the Wednesday after release

 

[The Fresh Prince]

I feel like the toe box will be the main problem with this release. The shape looks a little better judging by the unauthorized pairs but not even close to the 1989 version.

 

[Vile.in.Va]

Is anything even official yet???

All these pics and I don’t see the dealbreaker grey lines

Anyway if it’s the same durabuck they used on the 6s they will be good

Ima keep it real and say the 89 version of the 4 kind of sucks shape and proportion wise. From seeing multiple pics off the foot of mike

99 > 89

The 89 doesn’t suck (everything after the 99 absolutely sucks) but I agree the 99 is slightly better than the OG.

You remember the 4s when they were new? Damn.
I had 5s when I was young, but I couldn't tell you jack abiut the quality or how the shape compares. Who cared about that back then?
The only tho g that mattered was that Michael Jordan wore them!

 

[zonzon]

I remember when I wore my 2012 pair for the first and the paint cracked after a few steps, I thought my pair was defective or something. But then I got a text from Gentry with a pic oh him laughing and calling me sucker so I knew

 

[you go boy]

i love the 99s but these will be copped twice regardless if they dont have the same shape or not... im not hesitating on copping cuz they will sell out and dont feel like paying resale

Looks like "banana" toe was replaced with "ripple" toe.

That being said the profile is 110% better! Thanks for doing this and showing us the results.

It was probably rippled prior to ironing. I think he used a pair he didn't care about messing up. My grape 5s have rippled toe.

I hear ya. I am just bored AF and overanalyzed his pix. Is it May yet?!?!

 

[SteveSteve72]

The Concords were dope and the Infrareds were also. I see no reason to think these will be terrible. These will be the best retro of this shoe we’ve seen in a long time, I’m calling it now. Can’t wait
