Yeah, the Military Blue 4s released Thursday here in Korea along with the Playoff 12s and Obsidian 12s. There was a decent crowd it seems waiting at Hoopcity before the place opened. Korean collectors with, incidentally, some military guys. Sucks that either stock that Korea receives is lower than last year of the hype has grown so much here.
Sucks for me, I live 3 hours away from Seoul and I work a regular 9-5. I can't show up and wait till opening (10AM) on a random Thursday, and major Jordan releases usually only release in Seoul or Busan (2 hours away from me). I had no chance at getting a pair of Cement 4s and, needless to say I have no chance at these. Pretty salty at how things are shaping up out here, but I guess the hype was inevitable.

Can't wait for these again. Passed on white cements for these

 

[southwesthouston]

Is the midsoles white or some kind of off white to prevent yellowing ?
Because I see the bottom soles are white

Resellers will end up snatching them all up, and then they'll end up sitiin in their closets..hahah!

These will sell alot faster than most of you think.
Everyone that's still bruised from not getting a pair of White/Cement IVs this year will be all over these.
Every OG colorway this year has been in limited numbers, and no way are they going to miss out twice.

Wow that sucks man. Is there any reason they drop jordans on Thursday instead of Saturday, like the western world?

That's what I was thinking!

It is still an unpopular colorway. But the pure white upper might have increased its popularity!

 

[coldcity]

refuse bin

 

[omarzmethod21]

TRYING TO PASS ON THESE, but every time i see them i want em more and more.

 

[Zephyr1983]

Does anyone else think that this banana-toe looks worse than the Cement IV's? This shape looks like its back to the bad old days of IV's from 06-10. I was hoping after the modestly improved Cements that we could look forward to better looking Black/Military/Fire red IV's. Official pic or not, Im hoping this is an old model...

 

[rocman23]

sold my 06's last year, I'll probably skip the rd and get them later too much other stuff coming out

 

[babymatrix]

Two pairs for me hopefully...

 

[terx]

they do look good in those pics

 

[lifestooshort80]

fresh. my pair is beat lol, might have to get another pair.

I have no idea. I assume they just release stock whenever they get it in, because they were waiting for their stock truck to unload. Same tging happened with the galaxy foams. I remember last year a lot of releases happened on random Wednesdays and Thursdays and a few weeks or a month earlier. The only "big" release I can remember releasing on the same Saturday as in the states was the white/cement IIIs.Anyways, I am on my way to Busan to chill for a day and hope to see if any pairs are left.

theres too many hypebeasts out there to have these ANYTHING collect dust anymore. 

fixed

also, i'm not feeling the lack of off white. will cop only 1 pair.

 

[michaelclearyvi]

Those hoop city pics make them look so clean

 

[chato]

So I walked into the nikestore in Busan and randomly they were releasing the white/red 11 lows today. They had a few sizes of the 4s left. They looked good to me, but unfortunately none in my size. They had a pair in my boy's size so he bought them after trying them on. Said they were comfortable. Hopefully we'll see some pics soon.

 

[tdogg2k]

Yea me and Chato saw them today, couldn't believe they were still there and seeing them in person is what sold me.

 

[panaricanretro]

Damn, those pics up there look good. I was planning to pass on these...

 

[futuredhughes]

^ Wow, so that is the final product?!?

Fixed

 

[cashm0neyand1]

they look exactly like the 2006, hopefully quality is better

 

[dadecounty11]

Easiest pass of the year. Never been a fan of 4s, and def not a fan of this cw.

agreed. I dont really see any of the (modest) improvements we saw in the shape/construction of the Cements
