One of the more compelling aspects of Michael Jordan’s legendary career is the idea that we too, through hard work, perserverence and sheer force of will, overcome nearly any obsticles on the road to greatness. It’s that kind of inspiration that makes the Air Jordan Legacy a great fit for the annual Nike x Doernbecher Freestyle, which for its eighth go-round chose the Air Jordan IV silhouette as the canvas for one of the special youngsters at the Portland-area childrens hospital for whom the collaboration is named. Isaiah Scott turned the Air Jordan IV ‘Doernbecher’ into one of the most audacious colorways this four-decade-spanning silo has ever seen, a black-based superhero color scheme that like last year’s Air Jordan III DBs, utilizes a whimsical laser-etched pattern to give it that final push. These’ll be hitting select Jordan Brand retailers on Saturday, November 5th, so click through to see some crisp new images and stick with Sneaker News for word on their availability.

JB has been dropping an XI on December 23 for a few years in a row now. It has nothing to do with the day of the week, it's all about coming out 2 days before Christmas.
November 1st, 2011 at 4:05 pm
no matter how much i want to, i cant make myself like these
November 1st, 2011 at 4:30 pm
Yeah the more detailed pics just show even more hideousness of this shoe. All the other DB's were pretty dope.
November 1st, 2011 at 5:13 pm
I know a child designed these and they are for fundraising purposes but this is just too hideous to even buy for resale. I for one hate what JB has become but this has to be a new low.
November 1st, 2011 at 5:17 pm
little man please, You need to shut up when you hear grown folks talking
November 1st, 2011 at 5:52 pm
I've seen fakes that look better than these. These should've only came out in GS sizes
November 1st, 2011 at 6:03 pm
I don't really understand why everyone is hating on this shoe, swap the laces for some black ones and they'd look really good, the only thing I could do without is those arrows, anyway, keep hatin, just means I won't have to wait in line as long.
November 1st, 2011 at 6:04 pm
I can't stand when people thumbs down a person for asking a question, it's just a question!!
November 1st, 2011 at 6:14 pm
Looks like some Payless kids shoes….
November 1st, 2011 at 6:27 pm
i bet these will be on the counter for along time
November 1st, 2011 at 6:41 pm
NIKETOWN…. THESE ARE NICE BUT A LITTLE TOO MUCH FOR ME…. BESIDES I HAVE 6 PAIRS OF 4'S….

Stickler
November 1st, 2011 at 7:06 pm
instant cop..a kid designed them the whole concept is dope and If I can support a cause and buy a shoe then im doing it. I dont htink the design is bad, I think they'll look dope on foot. I'm IN and so are most of you who say "I hate these" and "these suck"…and then we see the same response on every site that everyone HATES them…but AMAZINGLY there's 5000 ppl in line and 100000389484 tweets askin where/when to get them and they sell out in 3 seconds…This game is nothing but fakeness lately.
November 1st, 2011 at 7:42 pm
you guys are all sayin its a shitty colorway and stuff, do you not understand it wasnt designed by jordan, a kid with an illness got chosen to design it, the whole point of the program is to have funky colorways
November 1st, 2011 at 7:48 pm
pot helps
November 1st, 2011 at 7:58 pm
Honestly im gonna need to see them on feet before i can say i like or dislike them.
November 1st, 2011 at 10:59 pm
