All the old heads call them playoffs, which is understandable because larry bird and the celtics started that trend all black shoes in the playoffs, something people don't know a lot about. Honestly that is my favorite jordan 4. tempted to buy the 2000 pair but they will retro either this year or early next
For me, when I had these in '89, I wanted the black and red (we didn't call them BREDs back then) so badly (they were sold out) that I never really appreciated what I had. I even died mine black after 8 months, which basically ruined the whole look of the shoe. Now, I prefer these over the black and red simply b/c I like smooth leather better than durabuck/nubuck. It would be interesting to see the black and red in high quality smooth leather (not tumbled) as a Retro+ colorway. I imagine the durabuck ultimately fits that shoe better, but would be interesting to see it!
