Nike’s Army-Toned Air Jordans Deserve a Salute

The Story

Nike has returned with another good-looking "Light Army" sneaker. This time, the Air Jordan 4 gets to put on the military-coded uniform.

Similar to those previous "Light Army" Forces, the Air Jordan 4 Retro sneaker goes tonal, with the familiar faded army green covering everything from the Air-supported soles to the luxe suede upper.

There are some lighter green touches, but they only make the model fresher with their minty flavoring.

The Jordan 4 joins the "Light Army" boot camp alongside other cadets such as the Field General and even the '01 Air Force 1s. Other Jordans have worn the color, but not on the same scale as the tonal AJ4s.

Sadly, they may be exclusive to European stores. But nothing is confirmed yet. There's still a chance this nice pairs could get a wider release on Nike's website.

But just in case, those interested in the "Light Army" 4s may want to start looking into overseas travel plans.
