“Military Blue” Air Jordan IV – Releasing This Weekend
June 6th, 2012 by Aaron Hope | 48 comments

With all the celebrities and trendsetters getting their Nike Air Yeezy 2s early, will they be lining up for a different hotly anticipated sneaker release this Saturday? There are a few significant drops coming up this weekend, the biggest non-Yeezy of which is likely the Air Jordan IV in its original ‘Military Blue’ colorup from 1989. This is the second of the complete set of four OG IVs releasing for 2012 and given both their perfect summertime look and how popular these were last time around in ’06, these are shaping up to be the ‘sleeper’ hit of the day even as they move more units than Mr. West. Let us know your plans for the weekend when you’re on the other side with a new set of photos and stick with Sneaker News for updates on the two remaining 2012 Air Jordan 4 release dates.

06/09/2012
$160.00












I was poor when they first came out (16 yrs old, no job) , so now that i have money ill get em. IVs are my favorite!
best pictures i've seen so far
i work at a sneaker store and these look so cheap in person. the toe boxes come with complimentary creases. plus the white is more of an off-white color.
"Complimentary creases"......lol nice. Just like all the 3s I got last yr came with a weird crease along with the chi town 10s and cement 4s so far this yr.
definitley copping these and the fire red 4's when they come out
I'm okay with nobody getting these. Mkaes it easier for me to get em
Cop. Colorway Nice. Been Waiting For These. People Passing Cause The Blue. SO WHAT !
Forget dem yeezy 2s Im not even going to try and get those , this is a must cope so I don't know why people talkin crazy.
all these dumb ass foes who think these wont sell out well think again........almost every jordan even the son of mars sold out...............
Would take another pair but I can't do the $160. Maybe $130 or less
ahhhh i like em but just too much coming out! Need those foams at the end of the month both olympics next month the obsidians. Plus i just copped taxi elites and mangos. Im on the fence
I had to pay for school so Im missing the release date. Hopefully I can get a good reseller deal.
new fours are made like shit. wahts up with teh straps bein plastic? shit is lookin pretty fuckin cheap so i agree with everyone complaining about the quality. but on the real .... these are the pair you cop cuz you couldnt get the shit you really wanted.... broke mafuckas and new jacks will love these!!!
#THEY LOOKING #MIGHTYHEALTHY...
the darker blue looks way better than the ogs light azz color these are dope
Every time i see these its like the blue is different on every set of pics. Still buying tho
I will be scooping up 3 pairs....me, the wifey and my son. Sorry no reselling here! Now a little misleading with "how popular these were last time around in '06" made it sound like they were a big hit and sold out. Yes they are popular but actually these could be found on sale a few months after they released...the good old days!
Those days will be back again on these!! most of the stores I talked to got upwards of 100 pairs!! They are all sweating that they won't be abel to get rid of even half that many!! Why can't they send that many pairs all the Jordans that would curb all the reselling and everyone would get theres! But I think you'll be able to find these well into next week maybe the week after that!! IMO.
06 release made it to be on sale at the factory stores. These will sell out this time the same day. Just the commercializing of the culture. It happened with hip hop also.
i just dont get whats the big deal with these. Maybe im tired of seeing the same retros over and over
SEEING THE SAME RETOS, THEY RELEASE EVERY FOUR TO FIVE YEARS. YOU SHOULD HAVE EVERYTHING BY NOW. HOW OLD ARE YOU CUZ????
Not a fan of these or the moon boots that are coming this weekend. I'd rather be a leader instead of a follower.
Lol then don't be in the shoe game
Let me guess and follow everybody that is picking up the obsidian XI's @ the end of the of the month. Buy what you like and don't ridicule others for doing the same.
I lost respect for u for not knowing your roman numerals. SQUARE
These actually weren't popular at all the first time the retro was released in 06
Well, that's because the sneaker game was different back then... a lot has changed in these last 5 years or so
in some spots they went on the sale..........
just about all they were sent to the outlets
do these run big just like the other IVs from this year?
great shoe, great color, great history behind the shoe BUT due to the quality of my 2012 cement 4's, which is the same material that this shoe is being made out of, EASY PASS for me, i'm not dropping $160 on a shoe that's going to crease after 1 wear..
ive worn my 2012 cement 4s more than 7 times and i still havent seen creases or any signs of potential creasing on them
they look fine, just not a fan of this colorway
The blue definitely looks better on these pics!
i can live WITHOUT these
Glad these are being slept on.Go somewhere else with your 3 grand bull for some glow shoes.
I agree 100% wit u bro will make it much easier to cop
Look perfectly fine to me, people complaining about the color are gonna cop anyways. This will be one of the underrated shoes of the summer.
They can release these straight into the toilet. The quality is terrible.
The quality is bad, and i do have them already. Worst quality on a Jordan i've seen in a long time. I just compared to my pure$ 4z and quality is really bad. But of course it isnt stopping me from keeping them.
@DeVille Since you got them early there not going to be the best quality and i bet you got some B grades cause the leather on mine are just fine
yea yours are bad CUZ u get em early n u ain't no baller/rapper. So u get pre release crap from Shysty international sellers. Don't knock the shoe cuz u got fooled
Okay quality man and u can tell by pictures. Get off everybodys sack with this jumping to conclusions b4 you actually see someting in person. Then again u gone say the samething anyways just bcuz u kno quality right?
Quality MAN!!!? LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!
SWorrrrrrd
Same quality as the cements, moron. You can tell from the pictures. Have a good time contributing blindly to Jordan's bank account, you sheep.
hahah the leather is totally different quality man more like doesnt know what hes talking about man
