In the past few years, Jordan has made concerted efforts to expand its women’s line and the new women’s exclusive colorway of Michael Jordan’s fourth signature shoe that will be released during Fall 2021. The Air Jordan 4 “Shimmer” similar to past exclusives, the “Shimmer” doesn’t overtly rely on feminine tropes. Instead, it rivals that of any men’s offerings through a palette heavily autumnal in aesthetic.
This model is highlighted by buttery soft nubuck overlays and burnished leather meant to age and sheen naturally with time in a Shimmer, Bronze Eclipse, Orange Quartz, and Metallic Silver color scheme. This Air Jordan 4 takes inspiration from varying neutral shades of makeup. Across the leather construction, a tan shade runs replete, matching the cages and straps just adjacent.
Below, the midsole lightly contrasts in white next to matted trim, Jumpman logos dress in what seems to be silver metallic, and the eyelets lean towards luxury in Bronze Eclipse. The shoe also features transparent TPU wings and lace locks and is topped off by metallic, electroplated Jumpman branding on the tongue, reminiscent of the mirrors used in makeup palettes.
Look for the Air Jordan 4 WMNS “Shimmer” to release on September 3rd at select retailers and Nike.com set at $190 USD.
