Air Jordan 4 "Frozen Moments": Materials, Fit, and Should You Buy It?

Quick answer: The Air Jordan 4 "Frozen Moments" is a women's Air Jordan 4 that came out in August 2023. It mixes pale grey "Light Iron Ore" suede and leather with Neutral Grey tones, white laces and shiny chrome lace wings. It fits like other Jordan 4s: true to size in women's sizing, a little snug in the toe. Men should go down 1.5 sizes (a men's 9 is a women's 10.5). It's no longer a new release, so most pairs now sell on resale. If you just want the look, check JD's current Air Jordan 4 colorways in greys and neutrals.

The "Frozen Moments" name nods to a 1990s Nike commercial about what it felt like to watch Michael Jordan play. The shoe keeps the classic 1989 Jordan 4 shape but uses three different textures in the same grey family, so it looks rich instead of flat:

• Suede: Light Iron Ore suede covers most of the upper. It's soft and matte, and it soaks up light.
• Leather: Smooth leather overlays add structure and a little shine.
• Chrome wings: The lace wings have a shiny metallic finish that catches the light. It's the "iced-out" detail that makes the pair stand out.

Metallic parts are the top worry for shoppers looking at this pair.

JD Expert Question: Do the chrome wings on the Frozen Moments chip or peel over time?

JD Expert Answer: Like any metallic finish, the wings can scuff if they rub against hard surfaces or each other. To keep them looking new, don't knock the shoes together, wipe the wings with a soft, dry cloth, and store the pair so the wings don't touch. The light suede needs care too. Brush it with a suede brush and use a suede protector spray before your first wear.

The Frozen Moments uses the same shape as every Air Jordan 4, so it fits the same way. Use these tips to pick your size:

• Women: Buy your true size.
• Men: Go down 1.5 sizes from women's sizing. A men's 9 is a women's 10.5.
• Wide feet: Go up a half size. The Jordan 4 toe box runs a bit narrow, and the suede and leather upper doesn't stretch much.
• Vs. other Jordans: Most people wear the same size in the Jordan 4 as in the Jordan 1 and Jordan 3. For more detail, see our Air Jordan 4 sizing guide.

• Is the Air Jordan 4 Frozen Moments a women's shoe? Yes. It released in women's sizes, but anyone can wear it by converting sizes.
• When did the Jordan 4 Frozen Moments come out? It released in August 2023.
• Do Jordan 4 Frozen Moments run true to size? Yes, in women's sizing. Wide feet should go up a half size.
• How do I clean the Frozen Moments? Use a suede brush on the suede, a damp cloth on the leather, and a soft, dry cloth on the chrome wings.
• Will the Frozen Moments restock? We can't promise a restock. Check the JD Sports release calendar for upcoming Jordan 4 drops.

Should you buy the Air Jordan 4 Frozen Moments?

• Buy it if: you want a clean, tonal Jordan 4 with a premium suede feel and a touch of shine, and you're happy to take care of light suede.
