Michael Jordan’s fourth signature silhouette has seen many incredible team-ups over the years. We’ve put together a list of the best of the best Jordan 4 collabs that sneakerheads still talk about.
Eminem x Carhartt x Air Jordan 4
In 2014, the Jumpman teamed up with both Carhartt Workwear and Eminem for a fusion of all three worlds. The Jordan 4 sneakers are covered in Carhartt’s signature canvas fabric with the rapper’s reverse E and mask logos at the heel.
Union x Air Jordan 4 “Guava Ice”
Union La and JB’s 2020 collaboration has bold colours, translucent details, and a folded tongue that pays homage to the shoe trends of the ’80s and ’90s. Although the duo created two colourways of the design, the lighter Guava Ice is a fan favourite.
Air Jordan 4 Retro “Doernbecher”
Isaiah Scott’s 2011 Jordan 4 is one of the best collabs Nike’s Doernbecher Children’s Program has ever undertaken. These kicks have black uppers with arrow markings across the top and neon touches throughout. Plus, the Superman logo on the tongue is the perfect nod to Scott’s “Superman” nickname– a nickname he earned for his brave fight against acute lymphoblastic leukaemia.
Eminem x Air Jordan 4 “Encore”
The colour scheme of Eminem’s 2005 “Encore” Jordan 4 sneaker was inspired by his hit fourth studio album of the same name. Only 50 of these kicks were made, so they are a pretty elusive grail for many sneakerheads.
Travis Scott x Air Jordan 4 (Friends and Family)
While Travis Scott’s suede purple Jordan 4 sneakers were only released to friends and family back in 2018, fans still dream of these beauties seeing a wider release someday. It’s not very often we get to see the silhouette dressed in such a bright purple covering, so its definitely one worth grabbing.
Levi’s x Air Jordan 4 “White Denim”
The Jumpman Label released a number of memorable collaborations back in 2018, including a droolworthy collection with Levi’s. The denim company offered sneakerheads three different versions of their denim-covered Jordan 4 designs, but their frayed white denim style is arguably the best.
A Ma Maniére x Air Jordan 4 “While You Were Sleeping”
In 2024, A Ma Maniére dropped a “Phantom” coloured Jordan 4 sneaker as part of their “While You Were Sleeping” collection. The shoe is made from luxe suede, textile, and nubuck fabrics and was definitely the pair that sparked the most interest.
Off-White x Air Jordan 4 “Sail”
Virgil Abloh and Jordan have collabs on various designs, but the Off-White x Air Jordan 4 “Sail” is definitely remembered as one of their best. The design features an understated sail colour scheme throughout, but livens it up with all the signature Off-White elements.
Nike SB x Air Jordan 4 “Pine Green”
The Nike SB Jordan 4s, one of the best sneaker collabs of 2023, has clean white leather uppers, plush suede grey mudguards and a pop of green teamed with a bunch of Nike SB’s skate-ready enhancements.
Kaws x Air Jordan 4
Almost all of us can agree that Kaws’ take on the Jordan 4 is one of the best collabs the model has seen if not one of the best Jordan collabs of all time. The shoe looks just like one of the brand’s companions, with plush grey uppers etched with their signature hand pattern throughout. Also present is the “XX” logo on the heel and glow-in-the-dark outsoles.
Undftd x Air Jordan 4
Even now, Jordan Brand’s very first collaboration is hailed as one of their greatest of all time. Undefeated used colours inspired by the MA-1 flying jacket to dress up the Jordan 4 silhouette, and it also featured a removable tongue patch. Only 72 pairs were released in 2005, but the shoe will be making a comeback for its 20th anniversary in 2025. Find out more about the Undftd x Air Jordan 4.
Oliva Kim x Air Jordan 4
In 2019, JB teamed with Nordstrom VP of Creative Projects Olivia Kim to produce a limited-edition “Black Cat” Jordan 4 for the ladies. The sneaker, which is covered in black bovine-haired leather, was the first women’s exclusive pair to wear the Nike Air Futura logo on the heel.
OVO x Air Jordan 4 “Splatter”
Drake’s Air Jordan 4 “Splatter” is a fun take on the Jumpman’s “Bred” look. The shoe comes in four different looks, each with a stunning matte black nubuck upper but with different splatter patterns, heel tabs and even different shapes. Fewer than 100 pairs were ever made, so you can bet these cost a pretty penny to get your hands on.
Nigel Sylvester X Air Jordan 4 “Brick By Brick”
Jordan Brand and BMX rider Nigel Sylvester worked together on one of the best Jordan 4 collabs of 2025. The design is covered in plush orange suede with Nigel’s signature “Bike Air” branding on the heel. Find out more about the Nigel Sylvester X Air Jordan 4 “Brick By Brick”.
Wahlburgers x Air Jordan 4
Back in 2018, Mark Wahlberg wore a pair of green suede Jordan 4 sneakers with detachable tongue tags to the grand opening of his family restaurant, Wahlburgers. The kicks were in such high demand at the time that the actor decided to give away 30 pairs at a charity event. Demand is still high on resale sites for these kicks.
