IV Air Jordans

The Air Jordan IV was released in late 1990 and designed by Tinker Hatfield. The Air Jordan IV model featured a rubber tongue with two holes in it which the wearer can easily put the shoes on. The clear soles and the lace locks features were brought back from the Air Jordan V model. The Air Jordan IV featured the figure 2 standing up on the back of the shoe and the figure 3 lying down facing the ground close to the laces. These also were the last shoes to feature the "NIKE AIR" logo on the back, later being replaced by the jumpman logo, with the words "AIR" underneath it.
The Air Jordan 6 was the shoe Jordan wore when he won his first NBA championship when the Chicago Bulls defeated the Los Angeles Lakers in the 1990-91 NBA Finals. The shoe was retroed in three color ways in 2000. The first model was the Olympic color way for Ray Allen when he competed in the 2000 Sydney Olympics. The second new color way featured a white upper and navy blue accent. The third model featured black and deep red.
In 2006, a black and gold color way was released along with the Air Jordan XI named the "Defining Moments Package," (DMP) celebrating the shoes Jordan wore when he won his first NBA championship in the 1990-1991 season and his 1995-1996 NBA championship, his first since returning to the NBA after retiring from the NBA in 1993.The entire tongue, and part of the lace locks of the Jordan IV were the inspiration for the Air Jordan Spiz'ike.
