Air Jordan IV “Thunder” 2012 Retro

It’s here fellas. The Air Jordan IV ‘Thunder’, released in 2006 in heart-wrenchingly limited units in tandem with a varsity-style jacket, has been confirmed for a Retro release for 2012 – and we’re getting a first look here and now. The 2012 version looks to be spot on with 2006 issue, so the only questions that remain are just how limited these will be, and what this means for the future of Air Jordan Retro releases. The Thunder IV is unquestionably one of the most sought-after Air Jordans ever to the point where collectors are shelling out over $1,000 for a pair, so this upcoming release will certainly ease the financial pain just a tad. The early word is a November 17th release date, so flip through our full photos after the jump and let us know what you think.

just got my "early" released thunders from MARQUEESOLE,COM, and it's like i was struck by LIGHTNING!!! WOW,not like the photos above at ALL. these shoes are B GRADES at BEST!!! creased toe box, netting is all jacked up and the best part is the shoe horn with the jumpman dunking with the wrong hand... SMH.... I can't recommend the shoes from MARQUEESOLE.COM.
first and LAST purchase from me....
I can't wait to cut the grass in these $350 B GRADES
YESSSSSSSSS! The BEST news I have heard all day today! I marked all the calendars in the house and on my phone haha. I WILL NOT miss out this time around, hopefully!
11/17/2012 A "Thunder" storm is coming . . .
These are a Quick Strike release... Retail is $160-$180... Jordan is F-ing the game up!
Might as well bring back everyone's classic favorites like the Fire Red III's cause my 07' ones are chipping.
Pass. Bred 4's are better than these so I'll be sticking with those.
One of my all time favorites, they look amazing. Unless Jordan Brand pulls a fast one the only shoes I really want this year are Gold Medal Kd's, Bred 4's and Thunder 4's.
Well November is going to be a broke ass month for me =/ these, bred 4's,stealth foams,pink foams, and olive 9's gotta make a game plan I wont be mad if i can't get these means more money for the other cops but FUCK YOU JB for this lol.
@boodle81 forreal ima have to start saving right now i think november and december ima spend like atleast 1g for all these releases!!
the tounge is diff from th eoriginal post?????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@jpolo23 Sample maybe?
Jordan brand is seriously re retroing fucking everything. It's becoming annoying now, you can't get a break. Can't they space some dates out? jesus.
@fukboii "quantity over quality" that's JB's new business moto.
I'm not waitin. I'm coppin from flight club. Plus dey will be more expensive for more swag
@Big_lnfinite You cop everything don't you?
@Kev Loco nah. I don't cop nothing but nikes and jordans
@Big_lnfinite stop using my fuckin name u piece of shit... and if u cop ur kicks frum flight club then ur a fuckin moron
@Da_Real_Big_Infinite don't knock the hustle chump. Back of my name
@Da_Real_Big_Infinite Just ignore him, we all know ur the Original
@Big_lnfinite my post is nonsense says da asshole dat doesn't want to use his own ugly face on his livefyre profile... ur a fuckin cunt yo jus like ya mother
@Da_Real_Big_Infinite grow up. You're post is nonsense.
@Big_lnfinite ur a fuckin punk yo... cuz if u want to check, I can go on ur profile & see dat u haven't been a member on livefyre nearly as long as I have. And da fact I have more comments pets then yo punk ass. So obviously u took my name u fuckin liar & swagger jacker... and most of all u have a pic OF ME AS YO PROFILE PIC.... cuz if I asked u when & where dat pic was taken yo lying ass wouldn know wat to say.... so use a different name u fuckin asshole... stop being a bitch ass by using sum1 else's name & callin it ur own. Jus be yoself even if yo real self sucks dick
@Da_Real_Big_Infinite I seen him taking your name for a long ass time on all these other articles, he even copied ur picture, wow the shit ppl do these days Looks like you have a fan
@Big_lnfinite so you think if spend more money on something, you have more 'swag'?
Well I'm happy there's a release date but now it's a tough choice between these or the Breds which are not even a week after. I wish i could cop both but I can't so I'll probably try for the thunders and if I can't get then I'll get the Breds. Ahhhh JB I really kill us
@JManSam get them both. get thunders from flight club now so you don't have to be a week apart
@Big_lnfinite @JManSam He's better off trying to get the 4s when they release and then buy the 9s some other time because the 4s will be in higher value, save yourself some money
@erickwright21 The exact thing I was planning to do!
@Big_lnfinite @JManSam I guess it really doesn't matter if your trippin over money, Do You Can't hate that
@erickwright21 @Big_lnfinite @JManSam yeah, but that's what ebay n flight club is for. you cop anytime you want
This makes the forth shoe I want releasing Nov. I'm finna be broke
Idk, there nice but i dont have any yellow clothes lol. I'm gonna have to say fuck it with matching if i wear these lol
@BallHard15 Who matches any more bruh bruh? Its all about coordinating! You've got to coordinate your outfits! Matching shows you trying to hard, and is essentially a testament to your lack of swagg!!
lol the olives can fuck right off. these are ridiculous.
Riot, raffle tickets wont mean nothin ppl will battle for these. Aint no telling what will happen that day with the olives & these dropping. Nike does a great job at making u choose between this or that or c'mon break yourself over both pairs you kno you want them. Not to mention same for Dec., then January etc........ We just get sucked in everytime but you kno what its worth it.
THE OLIVES ARE DROPPING THE 17TH WTF JB !!! I WAS TRYNA GET A 9 COLLECTION STARTING WITH THE PHOTO BLUES THEN THE OLIVES , NOW YOU WANNA DROP THE 4s THE SAME DAY -___-
@DaeDae olives def ain't selling out tho all eyes on these
@DaeDae Get BOTH!!! (Problem Solved) ...... You're Welcome!
@ImpalaLT1 @DaeDae yo...impala...you right
@Big_lnfinite @ImpalaLT1 @DaeDae ur not big infinite u fuckin bitch
YES!!! Definitely copping these bad boys! HEAT!!
Cavs copped and already set out for breds...might as well keep the whole black thing going because I really cant miss these. This is gonna be one exhausting holiday season folks
I never seen the quality look so good in these promo pics. Nice job JB!
They just guaranteed that the olive 9 will not be selling out so after I get these (hopefully) I can cum back n get those
So... where will these release? Will they be crazy limited or drop at Footlocker, etc.
Once again Jordan (& nike) trying to get in ppls pockets just before the holiday. On the other hand its kinda smart bc if you want more than one and miss out then theres always the other. I hope the resellers go broke in the process though.
Hmm, it may come in a ''special'' box, and retail will be well over $160.00...! Yikes!
i hope retail is $375
Holiday Season gonna be NICE!! You know Nike going to make it limited again! That's like their thing now and days!
yay. but what is RETAIL ?!
oh god yes.
