Such passion and knowledge- this man really knows his sneakers and how to make a thoroughly enjoyable video 🙌🏼

[ShortChizel]

4’s have always been my favorite Jordan model since day 1. Way before the hype. I definitely appreciate this video.

[courteo]

I definitely had a couple pairs of fusions. The playoff 12 and powder blue 9 pair. The powder blues were crazy

[AlexisGonzalezBk]

Thank you so much for your time. Your videos are so informative and very well explained. Truly appreciate all your work and efforts. I have been into sneakers for a really long time. It was part of our culture here growing up in Brooklyn, Ny During the late 80s early 90s and still. It was hand in hand with Hip-Hop Culture & Street Ball scene. Again thank you for all you do!! Keep doing your thing!!✨🙏

[zzirfamo]

4:38 we need those mist blue to come back, I need them🔥🔥

[vicious]

Been a fan of the 4’s from the first time I saw the white cements in the movie Do The Right Thing in 1989. Today’s hype definitely makes it more difficult to get them. Honestly, I can’t wait for the hype to be over so that I can get them a little easier. Great vid my dude!

[jimmarkley]

My first pair of Jordans back in 1989 were the Jordan 4 fire reds.. I needed something a little special heading into 6th grade 😂.. those shoes will always be something very special to me

[leteizjordan]

I Love 4s Especially The 1st Retro In 1999 And I Was Born In 2000 When Jordan Brand Released More 4s In 2000/2006 In Retro Plus Colorways

[advgym]

I hope the Off-White Bred 4’s release on Virgil’s birthday this year and let the Reimagined 4 be a great consolation prize for those who don’t hit.

One added fact for the SB collab that could've been mentioned as to why the collab happened in the first place. Sandy Bodecker, who's known as the godfather of Nike SB, also helped Tinker in the design/development of the Air Jordan 4 back in 1988/89 when they were designing the 4s. So it was bringing a Jordan model Sandy actually had a part in into his world of Nike SB!


Oh, and another fact. The original Encore and UNDFTD 4s were actually going to be swapped but Eminem liked the blue better so he ended up with that one!

[badon]

Can we get a list of colorways for 1-14? That would be dope

[demorreebowden]

To answer the question. Yes I had a pair of fusions. AJF5 to be exact, them joints was comfortable fa sho

[MichealC]

Hey DJ, thank you for the info and the History about the AJ 4. I’m so happy to know that someone like you know this much info. And that’s why i follow you on YouTube. Peace

[wishfullythinking]

This video was dope. Please do the same for the 5 & 12
My top 3
Mist blue

[evdub]

Best channel for sneaker info hands down thank you for giving us the history on the 4s!

I’ve ALWAYS LOVED the Air Jordan Fusions from when they came out around '08~'10 with my fav being the Fusion 4 Fire Red, White Cement, Military and Bred. Same with the Fusion 3 WC, BC n Varsity Maize. Also liked the Fusion 10 Steel, Fusion 13 Bred n HGG n Fusion 8 BB, Playoff n Varstiy Maize. I know alotta ppl don’t like this Fusion of Jordan retros and Nike AF1’s in low, mid n high versions. I loved them so much and wish JB would retro them in the near future, or at least the ones I mentioned.

[roddas]

That gum sole just looks sweet.
Would love a mostly black with gum.
