But have you ever stopped and wondered about the significance and stories behind these coveted items? Hosted by the iconic Yungwolf Blitzer, “History of Heat” offer you the most entertaining insight into sneakers since an OG Snapple cap.

For this episode, we’re detailing the historical & cultural significance of the iconic Air Jordan 4 on its 30th anniversary. Coming off the very successful Air Jordan 3, designer Tinker Hatfield and Michael Jordan went and created another certified classic, going for a more technical model that still holds up 30 years later. The 4 has gone on to become one of the more viable silhouettes in the Jordan legacy, thanks largely to a list of heavyweight collaborations that we will never forget.
