Original Story 7/15/25:
The Air Jordan 4 “Toro Bravo” is officially set to return in May 2026, bringing back one of the most recognizable non-OG colorways in the model’s history. Thirteen years after its debut, the bold red classic is finally getting its first true retro, and anticipation is already building.

Originally released in 2013, the Jordan 4 “Toro Bravo” stood out for its Bulls-inspired energy and its link to the “Raging Bull” theme. While not part of an official pack, the similarity gave it instant cultural weight. Over time, the Toro 4 became a symbol of Jordan Brand’s willingness to push color beyond traditional heritage tones.

The 2026 edition stays faithful to the original blueprint. However, the red nubuck appears slightly more muted, and the shape reflects Jordan Brand’s current AJ4 tooling. The Jumpman heel logo remains, which continues to divide purists who prefer Nike Air branding. Still, the overall execution feels respectful and intentional.

Compared to recent Air Jordan 4 releases, this retro leans more nostalgic than experimental. It balances classic styling with modern refinement, which is exactly what many collectors want from a true return.
