The Air Jordan 4 ‘Motorsports’ draws inspiration from a 2006 friends and family colorway created to celebrate the 4th anniversary of MJ's Motorsports Racing team. Released to the public in March 2017, the sneaker features the team's colors, including white, black, and varsity royal blue. Unlike the 2006 version, the sneaker omits the Mars Blackmon heel accent. Additionally, an alternate version called the Air Jordan 4 Retro 'Motorsports Alternate' was later released in a black colorway.
