Jordan 4 Retro Lightning

Released in August 2021, the Jordan 4 Retro Lightning reissues a revered colourway first introduced in 2006. Designed by Tinker Hatfield, this silhouette couples plush tour yellow nubuck uppers with deep blue-grey mesh panels and dark grey TPU wings for distinctive texture and contrast. White midsole accents bring balance to the vibrant palette.

Signature features include visible Air cushioning in the heel for comfort and performance, alongside the iconic Jumpman branding on the tongue and heel. The Lightning’s history is rooted in Michael Jordan’s passion for racing, reflected in the energetic colourway resembling his now-defunct motorsport team’s colours.

This release holds grail status among sneaker fans and collectors, blending bold visual appeal with enduring Jordan Brand heritage.

To ensure the longevity of your sneakers, we recommend a considered approach to their care. Regular maintenance is key to preserving their aesthetic integrity and material quality.

• General Care: For leather and synthetic uppers, gently wipe away dirt with a soft, damp cloth and a mild cleaning solution. Laces can be hand-washed separately. Allow the sneakers to air-dry naturally, away from direct heat or sunlight, to maintain the structure and quality of the materials.

• Suede & Nubuck: These delicate materials require specific attention. Use a dedicated suede brush to gently remove surface dirt, always brushing in the same direction. For stubborn marks, a specialist suede eraser is recommended. Avoid water, as it can stain and alter the texture. To protect against the elements, a light application of a waterproofing spray designed for suede can be beneficial.
