In 1989, Tinker Hatfield followed up the Air Jordan 3 with an even more innovative shoe for his Airness. The Air Jordan 4 included the signature “Nike Air” heel tab with a more prominent design that could be spotted from afar. The side mesh panels, the lateral wings for support and structure, and the shoe’s “Flight” tongue tag perfectly captured MJ’s on-court nature.
Off the court, the Air Jordan 4 evolved into a streetwear and pop culture staple (as many Jordans have). From a cameo in Spike Lee’s Do The Right Thing to countless celebrity spotlights, the Air Jordan 4 is a fan-favorite.
In 2006, Jordan Brand entered a new era of the Air Jordan 4, headlined by the Air Jordan 4 “thunder and Lighnntng” pack. Both dopped exclusively on Jumpman23.com, the central hub for Jordan Brand back in the day. Retailing for $250 and packed with a special “Flight” shirt, the Thunder and Lightning pack sparked the game like never before.
Following last year’s long-awaited return of the AJ4 “Lightning” colorway, the “Thunder” colorway is back with a new look as its black nubuck details remain true. At the same time, red components are substituted for the yellow once stood.
The online raffle for the Air Jordan 4 “Crimson” (aka “Red Thunder”) is open now. Stay tuned to Manor Phoenix for more Jordan Brand releases and details.

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
