According to trusted sneaker leaker accounts  @zSneakerheadz  on Instagram and  Sneaker Files,  the  “Military Blue” Air Jordan 4  is coming back next year. Unlike the  “Bred” Air Jordan 4  that’s also reportedly returning in 2024 with a leather upper instead of nubuck, next year’s “Military Blue” Air Jordan 4 retro is expected to feature original specs—including “Nike Air” branding on the heel tab. The mock-up depiction provided by the leaker accounts suggests that the forthcoming retro will feature its traditional white leather construction on the upper, with a grey mudguard at the forefoot and blue accents on the eyestay, tongue, and midsole.

Closer Look at the 'Royal Reimagined' Air Jordan 1 Rumored to drop in November.

  In terms of buzz and retail success, the safest bet in sneakers right now may be the  Air Jordan 1 . An even safer bet is bringing back original colorways of the model, which generally appeases enthusiasts from all generations.  Sole Retriever  reports that the original “Royal” colorway of the Air Jordan 1 High, not “Black Toe,” is set to release this holiday season. While OG-style color blocking has been confirmed, the site speculates about what the ‘Reimagined’ designation will mean for this pair, throwing out a leather-to-suede material change as something we may see. For last year’s popular “Lost & Found” release, the brand brought back the original “Chicago” colorway with a vintage makeover—a look most sneakerheads will likely covet for the “Royal” release. At this time, additional details about the look of the upcoming retro aren’t known. What is known is that the “Royal” Air Jordan 1 High Reimagined will  release  in full-family sizing, starting at $180 for men’s pairs. Ke
