Jordan Brand will celebrate its 40th anniversary in 2025 by resurrecting the Air Jordan 4 “Laser” series, following milestone marker releases in 2005 and 2015 with a new “Rare Air” colorway. Like its predecessors, the shoe will feature a laser-etched pattern on its upper half, adding a hint of nostalgia to what’s shaping up to be a stacked 2025 Jordan 4 lineup.
A mock-up by @zsneakerheadz and @sneakerfiles works off an official palette of “Black/Fire Red/Deep Royal Blue/Dark Smoke Grey/Tech Grey,” but it remains to be seen exactly how the colors will land. Official images should clear up all speculation in the near future, but eager minds can most definitely count on a dark look akin to 2005’s “Black Laser” colorway. Additionally, the shoes are expected to come with “Rare Air” branding on the tongue and “Nike Air” on the heel, two prized distinctions that serve to fuel even more hype.
On a sour note, the news comes with a caveat pertaining to another Air Jordan 4 initially on the brand’s release calendar; these will replace the “Atmosphere Grey” colorway originally marked for Spring 2025.
