Nigel Sylvester and Jordan Brand are set to expand their collaborative lineup with the upcoming release of the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 RM in the striking “Anthracite” colorway. This latest addition to the “Bike Air” series, rumored to drop in the summer, follows the earlier revealed “Pro Green” iteration, known fondly as the “Grandma’s Driveway.”
While official images of the shoe have yet to surface, the color scheme is confirmed as “Anthracite/Anthracite/University Red/White,” hinting at a fresh interpretation of Jordan Brand’s iconic black, red, and white palette. Expectations are high for a design featuring ballistic mesh foundations complemented by rubber and suede overlays, all supported by the classic Air Jordan 4 midsole.
Nigel Sylvester, renowned for his BMX prowess and distinctive sneaker style, has been a pivotal figure in Jordan Brand collaborations since debuting with a distressed Air Jordan 1 in 2018. His journey with the brand evolved in 2021 when he became an official Jordan Brand athlete, marking significant milestones in his partnership. Notably, Sylvester introduced his “Bike Air” tagline, a playful nod to “Nike Air,” which has since become synonymous with his unique sneaker releases.
In addition to the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 RM “Anthracite,” rumors are swirling about an upcoming collaborative drop titled the Air Jordan 4 “Firewood Orange,” slated for later this year.
Stay tuned for more updates on the Nigel Sylvester x Air Jordan 4 RM “Anthracite” as details emerge closer to its anticipated release date.
