ABOUT THE SNEAKER
In 1989, Nike released the Air Jordan IV to the public. It was the first Air Jordan to be released on the global market. The iconic sneaker was designed by the legendary Tinker Hatfield. It had four colorways: White/Black, Black/Cement Grey (Bred), White/Fire Red-Black, and Off White/ Military Blue.
During the 1988-89 season in which Michael wore the Air Jordan IV, he achieved his overall best statistical season with averages of 32.5 points, 8 rebounds, and 8 assists. The same season saw the Bulls make their first Eastern Conference Finals of the Jordan era, firmly confirming them as a team to be taken seriously for championship contention. It was also in the AJ IV’s that Jordan made “The Shot” which was a series winning shot at the buzzer to advance the Bulls to the next round in a do or die situation against Craig Ehlo and the Cleveland Cavaliers.
