Upcoming Release of Nike SB X Jordan4 Sapphire

After the success of the Nike SB x Air Jordan 4 “Pine Green”, it was only a matter of time before another colourway was announced by Jordan Brand. With Nike updating the basketball classic with skate-friendly tooling, it only made sense for the Swoosh to take full advantage of the update. It looks like the “Sapphire” edition heads towards a familiar direction, keeping the white leather and gum bottom combination that was such a hit with both sneakerheads and skaters alike.

The new “Sapphire” SB x Air Jordan 4 arrives with the improved shape, the sharper toe box a huge hit among OG fans of the silhouette. The rubber wings and heel tab will also return, giving the pair a different tactile feel that not only lends to skating but also helps improve comfort. The major difference comes via the hits of blue that replace the previous pine green accents. Overall, sneakerheads are more familiar with this “Sapphire” colour palette considering the lineage of blue editions of the Air Jordan 4 such as the “Military Blue” from 2012 and the “Motorsport Blue” 2017 colourway.
