NIKE Air Jordan IV OG White Fire Red: Black Friday 2020: Nov. 28th

[ModernMade]

Well, to tell you the truth, I didn't have the money at the time. That's why I passed. It's the SAME reason I passed on the Lightning's, too. It's been a tough few years financially, and I really didn't have to have either. So, I passed.​

Get your money up. If you held these 4s, you'd be twice as rich, atleast

 

[Kierris]

First time wearing my pair lol

Oh I gotcha lol sorry dude I was just poking some fun at you, I had assumed you passed on them willingly.. If I had an extra pair I’d hook you up for sure!!

 

[WASHED KING]

Did not realize the fire reds were hitting for that…need to grab the lightings now before they get stupid.

They gotta fix this yellowing issue with these 4s.. I’ve noticed the recent white 14s are also having serious yellowing issues. This shoe is less than two years old..

Is there any way to reverse yellowing?

The same process for clearing up translucent soles

I heard it doesn't work

Paint is the only way.

They really should be embarrassed. The original pairs from the 80s still haven’t yellowed.

 

[rbk93]

Thought painting was the only solution.

That doesn't work on the netting of the 4s or 5s.

I've only seen paint work.

It works for translucent netting on 5s

Do you have a link to this, never seen it and I've tried it.

Must be the materials. I have the white lasers that I've worn just as much, are older, and stored in the same location, and they haven't yellowed whatsoever, while my WCs have yellowed. Not nearly as much as in the pic above, which are disgusting. My OGs in '89 DID yellow, but I did wear the everyday back then and in all weather conditions. I'd say my '16s are not as yellow as those were, and I still enjoy wearing them. But why are my lasers crispy white still; must be the materials. They did "remaster" between these two pairs, so the lasers have the glued and horizontal netting....

Just say they're coffee stained, people pay money to have their shoes look like that drastic yellowing is in!

I saw a pair of OG 5s a couple days ago, and the netting was completely clear while the soles were yellow.

Honestly think that's unusual. OGs yellowed, especially when worn.

 

[jordanhead718212]

Wasn't the first time I've seen it. In general, OG materials seem to yellow a lot slower than the retro counterparts.

OG 5s used a different type of rubber for the netting so it doesnt yellow like the retros do

 

[rainking]

The thing about this yellowing, even if you like the "vintage" look, is that it demonstrates JB either doesn't care at all about what it delivers for $200, or even worse, it does this on purpose so people's shoes won't look good for long and they need to buy more pairs. Because there's no way the people working there who could do something about this don't know it's an issue.

I'd like a link too, cuz I tried it on 4s, and on the side of 5s and it don't work.

I believe they use this yellowing rubber on purpose because it keeps you feeling like you need a new fresh pair when they decide to retro them again. It would be bad for their business model to release a shoe and it stays pristine for 10-20 years
