Drake’s Unreleased Air Jordan 4 “Splatter” PE Reappears Amid Heated Rap Beef

An updated, detailed look at Drake’s Air Jordan 4 “Splatter” PE has surfaced amidst the heightened activity over the weekend. The one known as Champagne Papi has been embroiled in a heated back-and-forth rap beef with Pulitzer Prize winning Kendrick Lamar; both sides have thrown some haymakers, with the latter landing the bigger blows. Regardless, here’s a closer look at this unreleased PE from 2018 that will never see a retail release. Photos courtesy of English Sole.

Drake has switched his sneaker brand allegiances and is now affiliated with German sportswear brand adidas, leaving a bevy of sick Air Jordan Retro PEs behind that will likely never see the light of day. One of Drizzy’s more memorable specialties was this Air Jordan 4 spinoff of the classic “Bred” colorway with Nike Air on the heel, paint splatter detail on the midsole and heel, and a few other discrepancies from the original. Air Jordan collector extraordinaire depeche23mode, who recently added these to his stash, shares the most detailed look yet at these rare samples that will likely never hit production. However, fans of Drake still have the Raptors Jordan 4 to look forward to, although the shoes will probably no longer be tied to the Toronto native. See an up-close look at the Air Jordan 4 below and tell us if Jordan Brand should release these.
