The Air Jordan 4 “Rare Air” Is Arriving Summer 2025

Get an early sense ahead of the Summer 2025 release.

The Air Jordan 4 “Rare Air” Is Arriving Summer 2025

If you’re anything like us, you’ve started to parse the 2025 Jordan Releases slate to decide which pairs you’re circling in a year already full of “can’t miss” drops. On the heels of news regarding a Fragment Union Jordan 1, AWAKE NY Jordan 5 and the Air Jordan 3 “Pure Money,” detailed images of the Air Jordan 4 “Rare Air” are here to make that decision even more challenging.

A Breakdown Of The Sneaker

While the overall arrangement remains from earlier images, some of the details on tap for this “Rare Air” look come into focus with these new shots. The dusty finish on the mudguard and visible contrast stitching are most easily apparent, resulting in a vintage overall profile alongside off-white midsole accents.

Arguably, the biggest reveal here is further clearing up the interchangeable branding on the tongue. While our very first look at this Air Jordan 4 featured a pair with a blue-on-white Jumpman tag, here we see the titular text that peeks through velcro at rest, as well as the Jumpman “Flight” tag that presents another option. Fittingly, a novel “Rare Air” Swoosh on the insole rounds out the peripheral touches that set this pair apart.

Where To Buy The Shoes

After being initially tabbed for a release on All-Star weekend, the Air Jordan 4 “Rare Air” is now expected to land for Summer ’25, retailing at $215. Firm release date information has yet to be revealed. Until then, keep an eye on our Jordan Release Dates landing page as we work into 2025 for further updates, official images, and more.

The First Look

News of the Rare Air Jordan 4 release broke way back in May 2024. The shoes were first thought to feature laser detailing on the uppers as the sneakers were believed to be another from the Air Jordan 4 Laser line. However, a first look at the shoes was revealed in September during NYFW, revealing an all-suede upper.
