Jordan 4 Retro SB Navy: Here’s Why Everyone’s Talking About It
One of the most hyped drops of 2025 is undoubtedly the Jordan 4 Retro SB Navy. Following in the footsteps of its predecessor, the successful Air Jordan 4 ‘Pine Green’, the Navy colorway released in April 2025 and quickly made waves in the sneaker community. Missed out on the drop? Don’t worry — the sneaker is still available via Woovin, with different offers depending on your size.
But first, let’s take a closer look at why this special design deserves a spot in your collection:

Building on the success of the ‘Pine Green’ colorway, the ‘Navy’ version stays true to the Air Jordan 4 silhouette while introducing some new key features that make it stand out. The Jordan 4 Retro SB ‘Navy’ offers a refined look and a clean blend of style and functionality, making it a favourite among both sneaker fans and the skateboarding community. The most noticeable of these updates is the enhanced fit, but more on that later.

Material and Functionality
At the heart of this collaboration is of course the fusion of two legendary worlds – the performance-driven, well known design of the Air Jordan 4 and the skate-ready functionality of Nike’s SB line. The sneaker therefore features a premium construction with a clean Summit White upper, complemented by high-quality leather and soft suede overlays. Navy accents provide a nice contrast, while Nike SB branding on the heel pays tribute to the roots of Nike’s skateboarding legacy.
But it’s not all about aesthetics – this Jordan 4 is also built with performance in mind. The most significant updates compared to the classic Jordan 4 model lie in the heel cushioning and sole structure, offering functionality specifically for skaters.

Air Jordan 4 vs Nike SB Jordan 4:
Let’s continue comparing the classic Jordan 4 with the new SB iteration: The Jordan 4 Retro SB Navy features a thinner heel padding, enhancing flexibility and offering improved board feel along with better impact protection. Last but not least, the modified Air cushioning provides extra comfort, engineered to deliver just the right amount of bounce, while the outsole provides superior grip.
A combination that ensures comfort and performance, whether you’re hitting the streets or landing tricks at the skate park.
Unlike traditional Jordan 4 models, which were originally designed with basketball in mind and nowadays are mostly seen on the streets, the SB version features subtle tweaks to better accommodate the needs of skateboarders. As mentioned above, the sole design offers improved grip and flexibility – essential for flicks and grinds. The signature mesh side panels and classic lace cage, however, stay true to the AJ4’s iconic aesthetic as we know it.
