Following a series of leaks and teasers, the highly-anticipated Air Jordan 4 “Raptors” finally receives an official release date.

Originally set to be a Drake signature shoe, the Toronto Raptors-themed take on the classic Jordan Brand model was reworked for a 6 God-less release. Borrowing from the color scheme found on the classic Air Jordan 7 “Raptors,” the standout iteration features a mainly black nubuck upper accented by choice hits of “Court Purple” and “University Red” on the TPU frames and heel guard. Finally bright and bold color mash-ups on the signature segmented Air Jordan 4 sole unit complete with speckle detailing round up the design of the shoe.

Priced at $190 USD, the Air Jordan 4 “Raptors” is set to release at select Jordan Brand retailers on Saturday, August 18.
