Is the Jordan Zion 4 the best bang-for-buck basketball shoe on the market? For $140, Jordan Brand packed in some proven tech into Zion Williamson’s fourth signature model. Despite the athlete not capturing the headlines like his colleagues in the competition, the Zion 4 boasts a strong list of tech specs that should have you considering the model for your summer hooping.
In case you didn’t know, here’s a refresher: the Jordan Zion 4 features a full-length Zoom Air unit, which is typically reserved for the top shelf models. It’s also got a drop-in Cushlon 3.0 midsole for more explosiveness if your game draws comparisons to the powerful Pelican. It’s also got a wider surface area for more stability, while the cupsole frame provides even more of that grounded feel.
With the Zion 4 on the market in a strong selection of colorways, this upcoming “Light Photo Blue” is perfect for those who are drawn to the color. Paired with it is Coast and Blue Gaze, completing a refreshing look on the high-powered hoops sig model. You can find these at Jordan basketball retailers beginning May 29th for $140.
