History in the Soles: Air Jordan 4 “White Cement” Returns May 24, 2025

The Air Jordan 4 “White Cement” isn’t just a sneaker — it’s a moment in history. First released in 1989 as one of the original AJ4 colorways, this pair earned legendary status thanks to its clean white leather, tech grey speckled accents, and of course, Michael Jordan’s unforgettable on-court performances during the late ’80s and early ’90s. Whether you were watching MJ take flight or just growing up on the retro wave, the White Cement 4s always stood out as a symbol of greatness.

Over the years, the White Cement has seen several re-releases, each one stirring up massive hype and flying off shelves. The 1999 drop is often considered the holy grail by purists, thanks to its OG shape and Nike Air branding. The 2012 version brought the look back with Jumpman on the heel, while the 2016 retro answered fan prayers by restoring the Nike Air for that nostalgic finish. Every drop sparked debate, love, and long lines — because when the White Cements drop, it’s always an event.

Now, they’re coming back once again — May 24, 2025 — hitting SNKRS and select retailers nationwide. But there’s a twist: Nike hasn’t confirmed if this will be a true OG re-release, or if they’ll go with the Reimagined treatment like we’re seeing with the upcoming 2025 Jordan 5 “Black Metallic”. Either way, it’s one of the biggest releases of the year, and sneakerheads are already lining up digitally and mentally.

📆 Mark your calendars. Set your reminders. Update your alerts.
Whether you’re adding your first pair or doubling up, don’t sleep on this drop. The White Cement 4s are coming — and legends never stay on shelves for long.
