Jordan Brand Blends "Space Jam" DNA Into the Air Jordan 4 RM

Some colorways don’t need an introduction — they just need the right silhouette to carry the message. For its latest outing, the Air Jordan 4 RM leans into one of Jordan Brand’s most enduring visual codes, borrowing heavily from the DNA of the iconic “Space Jam” era while grounding itself firmly in Bulls-red tradition.

The Air Jordan 4 RM “Bred” features an all-black upper, combining smooth leather with suede overlays and technical paneling that subtly nods to the Air Jordan 4 without directly retracing its lines. The familiar contrast comes underneath, where a crisp white midsole breaks up the dark palette before giving way to an icy blue outsole — a clear callback to the legendary Air Jordan 11 “Space Jam,” a silhouette set to return in 2026.

Where this pair sets itself apart is in its branding. Instead of Concord-toned accents, Jordan Brand conveys Chicago attitude through Varsity Red details, most notably the embroidered Jumpman logos on the tongue. It’s a slight shift, but one that reframes the entire execution — less cinematic polish, more hardwood grit.

Functionally, the Air Jordan 4 RM continues to prioritize everyday wearability, pairing a streamlined build with visible Air cushioning at the heel and a durable rubber outsole built for repeat use. It’s a modern remix that feels intentional rather than ornamental, pulling from Jordan Brand history without being tethered to it.

The Air Jordan 4 RM “Bred” is expected to release during the first half of 2026. Stay tuned for further updates as official release details emerge.
