The Union LA x Air Jordan 4 Retro ‘Off Noir’ is a striking sequel to the 2018 Air Jordan 1 collaboration that took the sneaker world by storm. This iteration reimagines the iconic silhouette with a bold, contemporary twist. The upper is crafted from premium black suede, offering a sleek and sophisticated look, while the toe box features black mesh for added texture and breathability. Blue mesh around the collar adds a pop of color, enhancing the shoe's modern appeal.
The design is further elevated by semi-translucent TPU wings, which are attached to bold red molded eyelets. These wings harken back to an original sketch by Tinker Hatfield, giving the shoe a unique blend of retro inspiration and modern innovation. The padded tongue showcases a woven Air Jordan tag in matching red, and the heel is adorned with the classic Nike Air branding, tying the look together with a nod to Jordan Brand’s heritage.
One of the most distinctive features of this collaboration is the flipped tongue, where the AIR JORDAN tag typically found inside is now exposed, adding a playful, deconstructed vibe. The iconic 'UN/LA' tag on the side panel underscores Union's signature touch, while the yellowed midsole delivers a vintage aesthetic that perfectly complements the overall design.
Whether you're a long-time fan or new to the collaboration, the Union LA x Air Jordan 4 ‘Off Noir’ is a must-have for anyone looking to blend style, heritage, and cutting-edge design in their sneaker collection.
