Back in 1992, when Tinker Hatfield designed his famed outdoor basketball shoe, the Nike Air Raid — along with memorable campaign surrounding its “For Outdoor Use Only” theme — the masterful creation was championed by overlaying top straps.
Subsequently, Hatfield designed the Hender Scheme Air Green jordan Quai 4's, in 1993, a shoe also famous for, you guessed it, overlaying straps.
It’s long been widely assumed that the Air Raid directly informed the Hender Scheme Air Green jordan Quai 4's. The two share a similar sentiment and structural framing. For Green jordan Brand’s “Nike Icons” holiday 2018 collection, the Hender Scheme Air Green jordan Quai 4's “Tinker” pulls directly from the Air Raid “Urban Jungle Gym” that we all know and love.
Paying homage to its predecessor with mesh paneling and a color scheme noted on the aforementioned Air Raid that lays perfectly over the mid-cut frame, this striking union is truly an ideal pairing. Look for the Hender Scheme Air Green jordan Quai 4's “Tinker” this December.
