Okay, so this week, our holiday wishlist is a banger for two reasons. First, Ray, our marketing manager is giving her two cents (and we really don’t wanna disappoint the boss). Second, the sneaker of choice is none other than the iconic KAWS Jordan 4 Cool Grey. Honestly, it’s a very interesting choice for so many reasons that we’ll dive right into! But before we do, make sure you check out what the rest of the NSB team chose as their favorites:
Ray’s Pick – KAWS Jordan 4 Cool Grey
Y’all, Ray isn’t just the marketing manager on our team. She’s also basically the one we’d vote as the best dressed every year thanks to her uncanny sneaker choices. So, if you wanna learn how to flex kicks right, Ray’s your girl. And when we approached her to listen to her two cents, she knew how to sell the choice:
If I were to choose my all-time favorite, my forever sneaker crush, the one that IMO embodies the culture in a shoe, it would be the KAWS Jordan 4 Cool Grey.
It literally has EVERYTHING.
The perfect colorway. An iconic silhouette. Soles from out of this world. And intricate artsy details that make it the ONE!
Oh, and a galactical resale value to remind us all why we’re here and doing what we do!
Not Sold on the Choice Yet?
This is one of the sneakers that we would all have to say “you had to be there” about if you’re new to the game. You see, many things make this shoe iconic beyond how cool it looks, but let’s start there. The kicks featured a monochromatic suede upper with KAWS’ signature hands carved all over. Moreover, another KAWS signature, the “XX” appeared on the heel. Finally, the translucent glow-in-the-dark outsole completed the design!
Now, in addition to its amazing look, the KAWS Jordan 4 was pretty exclusive. This kinda led to its whopping resale value of $2,440 on average! Which explains why so many in the industry consider it a must-have grail. But if you’re looking for something more attainable for now, then you’re in the right place. 2025 seems to be packing some heat with drops like the Jordan 11 Bred Low and the Year of the Snake Dunks. And if you wanna know how to score them all for retail, you’ll need a good bot by your side. Luckily, NSB3 is just a click away and ready to cook just the way it did them, Jumpman Jacks. Godspeed!
