Jordan Brand first debuted the original Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Shadow 2013 Retro “Thunder” back in 2006. Little did they know that a highly appealing mini-series of AJ4s would result, forming one of the most-wanted Retro releases year after year. In 2024, that clean-cut black-on-tone color-blocking returns in a clean white on August 24th, 2024,  and it’ll be at the top of many back-to-school shopping lists.

Although the sneaker has been previewed heavily for nearly a year, with official retailer images being revealed not long ago, the “White Thunder” Jordan 4 gets an official preview straight from Jordan Brand. Although the moniker is sticking for now, some have been bold enough to call these the “Panda” — a nod to the infamously ubiquitous Dunk Low that truly changed the landscape of sneaker collecting and consumer trends.

The Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Shadow 2013 Retro isn’t quite the Dunk. It’s not quite the every day sneaker that the low-top model is, but Air Jordan 1 Retro High OG Shadow 2013 Retros have grown increasingly in general popularity, which suggests that this simple colorway should be a top seller for Jordan during the ever-competitive shopping season before the new school semester starts.
