Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro 'Undefeated' 2005 | Size 10

In 2005, Undefeated became the first sneaker boutique to collaborate with Nike’s Jordan brand and apply its touch to the iconic Air Jordan 4 silhouette.

Undefeated, founded in 2002 by Eddie Cruz and James Bond in Los Angeles, California, was one of the earliest sneaker and streetwear boutiques, and has since cemented itself as a relevant reference point in the sneaker and streetwear industry. In 2005, Undefeated worked with the Jordan brand on an ultra exclusive release of their first collaborative Jordan.

Inspired by military jackets - particularly the MA-1 Flight jacket - the upper of the Air Jordan 4 is composed of an olive nubuck upper, a white midsole, and black outsole. Like the MA-1 Flight jacket, the lining of the sneaker is completed in a vibrant orange. The air unit has an orange tint and comes with laces in the same orange hue. The Jumpman tag on the tongue is attached with velcro, and when removed reads “RARE AIR”, whilst the rear of the tongue tag is labeled with UNDEFEATED branding. The wings and lace locks are finished in black to complete the military look.

This pair also comes with the UNDFTD INCASE which holds the shoes instead of a shoebox, and an Undefeated promotional tee-shirt from the release. With only 72 pairs made, this is one of the most sought after sneakers for collectors.
