Nigel Sylvester and Jordan Brand are preparing to expand the “Bike Air” canon this summer, as rumors of a collaborative “Anthracite” colorway of the Air Jordan 4 RM are beginning to swirl. Though images of the forthcoming release have yet to be revealed, it’ll be joining the previously-shown “Pro Green” colorway — also known as the “Grandma’s Driveway,” due to the inspiration it draws from Sylvester’s childhood in Queens, New York — as a key part of the Jumpman’s collaborative release slate in the second half of 2024.
The official color scheme for the release is “Anthracite/Anthracite/University Red/White,” meaning that it’ll likely provide a tweaked take on Jordan Brand’s familiar blend of black, red and white hues. Material-wise, it should feature a ballistic mesh base with a mixture of rubber and suede overlays, all atop a classic Air Jordan 4 midsole.
Sylvester is a longtime Jordan Brand collaborator known for his BMX exploits with his Go! series and his fondness for wearing rare sneakers while riding. His first official project with the brand arrived in 2018 via a pre-scuffed and distressed Air Jordan 1. He then became an official Jordan Brand athlete in 2021, and teased a friends-and-family-only Air Ship (the debut of his current “Bike Air” tagline, which is a flip on “Nike Air” in 2023. Besides his Air Jordan 4 RMs, rumors of a collaborative Air Jordan 4 “Firewood Orange” purportedly releasing later this year have also risen.
