Editor’s Notes: After months of rumors, Nike's Jordan Brand is gearing up to release a “What The” version of the Air Jordan 4. The sneaker marks the silhouettes 30th anniversary and features a combination of the four OG colorways — “Fire Red,” “White Cement,” “Bred” and “Military Blue.”

This highly-anticipated sneaker is a powerful homage to Jordan's brand heritage. Nike has released “What The?” sneakers in the past, starting with Nike SB's "What The?" Dunks. The chimeric and highly collectible sneakers blend numerous elements of different colorways for a bricolage effect. The image above isn't official, but rather a mock-up created by House of Heat after news of the shoe first leaked.
