Air Jordan 4 Rare Air “Atmosphere Grey” Scrapped (2025)

The Air Jordan 4 Rare Air “Atmosphere Grey” will pick up where Jordan Brand left off in 2006. Reviving the unique look, the shoes will be released in Spring 2025. Once again, this pair will feature a removable velcro tongue patch.

The term “Rare Air” is a common search term when looking for exclusive Air Jordans. However, the name has been attached to several Air Jordan models with a twist. One of those is the Air Jordan 4, which Jordan Brand introduced in 2006. For 2025, the brand will revisit the theme, but this time in a new color scheme. Arriving at retailers, we have the “Atmosphere Grey” Air Jordan 4 Rare Air, which its predecessor will inspire.

History of the Rare Air Jordan 4

Jordan Brand would release the first pair in 2006, known as the “Tour Yellow” Air Jordan 4 Rare Air. This shoe was unique because the tongue featured a removable velcro patch that displayed “Jordan” and “Rare Air.” Upon releasing on May 20, 2006, the retail price was $125. Furthermore, the shoes were part of Jordan Brand’s Lifestyle series. This would mean that the brand would launch matching apparel and the shoes were available at select retailers and somewhat more limited than other Air Jordans that launched at the time.

This Air Jordan 4 comes dressed in an Atmosphere Grey, Varsity Red, Dark Blue Grey, and White color scheme. The photo used is a mock-up, and the actual blocking may differ. However, you can expect the shoes to feature a removable velcro patch on the tongues with a Jumpman and Flight logo. Once removed, we have “Jordan” and “Rare Air” branding. The signature Jumpman will be released on the heels, while most of the upper will feature Atmosphere Grey. Other details include Red and Dark Blue Grey accents, a mostly White midsole, and a Grey rubber outsole.

Air Jordan 4 Rare Air Atmosphere Grey Release Date

The Air Jordan 4 Rare Air “Atmosphere Grey” will be released at select Jordan Brand retailers and online via Nike.com in Spring 2025. This means the pair will be available between January and March 2025. Currently, the retail price is unknown. Once we have more details, we will keep you in the loop.

The revival of the Air Jordan 4 Rare Air line in Spring 2025 marks a nostalgic return to a popular era from Jordan Brand. By bringing back the unique aesthetic of the removable velcro tongue patch, this release not only pays homage to the past but also connects to a new generation of sneaker enthusiasts. With its distinctive design, the “Atmosphere Grey” Air Jordan 4 Rare Air is sure to reignite memories for longtime fans while also sparking excitement among those discovering its allure for the first time.
