The Air Jordan 4, released in 1989, marked designer Tinker Hatfield's introduction of the concept of a guard shoe. This design prioritizes lightweight and speed. The upper combines leather and nylon mesh for reduced weight and enhanced comfort. The midsole retains the separate rear palm visible Air Sole unit from its predecessor. The shoelace holes and heel lift are inspired by the basketball net, seamlessly integrating basketball into the shoe's design, giving the overall shoe body a sense of flow, rhythm, and elegance.
