One original Air Jordan colorway that did not make our illustrious list of OG Jordans returning in 2012 is the ‘Varsity Red’ Jordan IV.
Jordan Brand follows a few distinct patterns every year when it comes to releases. One of them being whichever model used in the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital pack will receive several colorways the next year. So in 2011 when the ‘Doernbecher’ Jordan IV dropped, we knew to expect more colorways in the next year. 2012 has already brought the bulk of the Jordan IV releases; some classic Retros and some original but expect clearly we haven’t seen the last of this silhouette.
The last time this colorway dropped on a Jordan 4 was back in 2006 with a lasered icon of Mars Blackman by the heel which was a nod to the ad campaign which featured the Spike Lee’s character from She’s Gotta Have It.
Jordan Brand brings back the classic Air Jordan IV – ‘Varsity Red’ on August 4th for $160.
