Air Jordan 4 “Fear” 2024 Detailed Look

Original Story (01/01/24): When news surfaced of the Air Jordan 3 “Fear” returning in 2023, many sneakerheads were left wondering when the accompanying “Fear” Air Jordan 4 would return. Turns out they don’t have to wonder anymore, as the Air Jordan 4 “Fear” is reported to release in 2024.

As first reported by zSneakerHeadz and Sneaker Files, the Air Jordan 4 “Fear” will be returning as part of Jordan Brand’s Holiday 2024 retro lineup. This colorway was first released in 2013 as part of a “Fear Pack” that also included a Jordan 5 and the aforementioned AJ3. This pack drew inspiration from MJ’s 2008 “Look Me In The Eyes” commercial, which features the quote: “I’m scared of what I won’t become, and you’re scared of what I could become.” This quote was found on the graphic insoles across all three pairs in the original pack.

Over a decade later, the Air Jordan 4 “Fear” is now returning for the first time since its original release. The retro is expected to mirror the 2013 pair, featuring the same black nubuck upper with grey mudguard overlays and a lighter grey toe cap. This is paired with hits of white on the sockliner, tongue tag, multichannel lace locks, and Jumpman on the heels. As a final touch, the midsole comes in black with white speckles and a pop of red inside the Air bubble.

Look for the Air Jordan 4 “Fear” to release in November 2024 on SNKRS and at select retailers in full family sizing. Grab a preview below and stay tuned to Modern Notoriety for updates.
