The Air Jordan 4 has long been a favorite among sneakerheads, with its iconic silhouette and timeless colorways. Over the years, this model has seen numerous iterations, collaborations, and exclusive releases. However, only some designs make it to the retail shelves. Many make it to the look-see sample stage and are scrabbed, as with the Air Jordan 4 Retro Bamboo, a sample that offers a unique take on this classic sneaker.
The Air Jordan 4 Retro Bamboo sample showcases a striking combination of materials and colors. The upper is predominantly black nubuck, giving the shoe a sleek and sophisticated look. This black base extends across the mudguard, toe, and collar, strongly contrasting the distinctive bamboo camo pattern that peeks through the black plastic netting on the tongue and midfoot.
This bamboo camo also decorates the tongue tag and sockliner, adding an earthy aesthetic to the design. The sneaker is further accented with gum-colored details, prominently featured on the wing eyelets and the Jumpman-laden heel tab. Completing the look is a black, grey, and white midsole paired with a gum rubber outsole that ties the whole design together.
The Air Jordan 4 Retro Bamboo is a sample that has not been released to the public and likely never will see a retail release. Check below for detailed images of the sneaker and keep it locked to the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest releases, raffles, news, and more in the sneaker and streetwear world.
