The sneaker features a soft pink suede upper, marking a fresh take on the classic silhouette in its 35th anniversary year.
The design combines an orchid pink base with neutral grey accents on the midsole and wing supports. Black details appear on the sole and upper wing portions, while white elements include the laces, tongue tag, and sections of the midsole surrounding the Air unit. A tonal pink Jumpman logo sits prominently on the white tongue tag.
This release was initially planned for October 5 but faced a brief delay. The sneaker will be available through Nike SNKRS and select retailers, priced at $215.

The "Orchid" follows several notable Air Jordan 4 releases this year, including the renamed "Industrial Blue" version (previously known as "Military Blue"). The sneaker's suede construction represents a material shift from traditional leather builds, adding texture to the distinctive pink shade.
Earlier previews emerged in May, showing the grey cement detailing that pays homage to the original Air Jordan 4 design language while introducing this new color palette.
Nike has positioned this release alongside other women's exclusive colorways, continuing their focus on the growing women's sneaker market. The "Orchid" joins the Air Jordan 4's anniversary celebration as one of the more distinctive offerings in this year's lineup.
