Air Jordan 4 Retro 'Imperial Purple' (FV5029-500)
Air Jordan 4 Retro 'Imperial Purple' — FV5029-500
Court history meets franchise legacy. The Air Jordan 4 Retro 'Imperial Purple' is Jordan Brand's NBA All-Star Weekend tribute to one of basketball's most storied franchises. Originally debuting at the 1989 All-Star Game — and famously worn by MJ when he hit 'The Shot' — the AJ4 returns here draped in a deep Showtime-era palette that honors the Los Angeles Lakers' championship dynasty. Purple, gold, and black have never looked this good on an AJ4.
