Updated May 22nd, 2024: Retailer images have just arrived of the Air Jordan 4 “White Thunder.” True to earlier first looks and in-hand imagery, the shoe continues the tone-on-black color blocking scheme that began with 2006’s OG Jordan 4 Thunder, continuing with the “Red Thunder” edition from 2022.
Spotlighting pure white accents also ushers the shoe into a lineage of alongside the “Military Black,” already a highly sought after pair just a few years after its introduction. Only time will tell if the Air Jordan 4 “White Thunder” will reach that same fate; the shoe releases on August 24th with a $215 retail price. Enjoy a full gallery ahead.

The Air Jordan 4 “White Thunder” continues a short series of colorways inspired by a 2006 classic – the black/yellow Air Jordan 4 “Thunder”. Officially marking the third chapter of this series, this black/white pairing offers up a pleasantly uncomplicated colorway for Air Jordan 4 fans to add to their collection of the 1989 model.
This detailed gallery revealed by @sneakerknockerzllc on Instagram provides the best look yet at this Fall 2024 release; full black nubuck suede uppers are matched on the interior lining, tongue, plastic wings, and netting, while an opposing white appears on the midsole, lace eyelets, and the base of the mesh. It’s a clean-cut and versatile colorway that should be one of the more popular Retro releases in the month of August at the peak of the Back To School shopping season.
Furthermore, given the blankness of the white, we predict sneaker customers will run amok on this model, adding quick paint treatments for what seems like an infinite number of possibilities.
There’s plenty of Air Jordan 4 releases to look forward to as the silhouette continues its 35th Anniversary celebration, so stay tuned for updates on the Air Jordan 4 “White Thunder” and more. The latest developments on the Jumpman can be found on our Jordan Release Dates page.
