Air Jordan IV Gets a Formal Update With "Dress Code" PE

Jordan Brand has released a player exclusive version of the Air Jordan IV dubbed “Dress Code.” Taking cues from the pregame strut down stadium tunnels that players have co-opted into a runway, the new silhouette offers an upscale rendition of the basketball sneaker.

Overlaying panels of grain, pebble and patent leather drape the upper in a predominately black and gray colorway. Hints of orange are seen on the visible Air unit, mid-panel tag and branding, along with a hanging tag that emphasizes the PE element. The typical “Flight” text on the tongue is also replaced with the word “Family.” The limited-edition footwear comes in a carrying case customized with the player’s name on the handle and individually numbered. Only 29 pairs of the “Dress Code” model will be distributed to members of the Jordan team.

In other footwear news, Nike shared more details around the release of the SB Dunk High Pro “Space Jam.”
