I laced up the Air Jordan 4 Aluminum, and the comfort is standard for the model—which means it's decent, not plush. The lockdown is good, but the toe box area can feel a bit rigid initially. It's not a super heavy shoe, but you definitely feel the structure. If you're used to modern, foam-heavy sneakers, the break-in period here might be a thing. Who is this shoe for? If you're a Jordan collector looking for a unique colorway that's not a retro OG, this Aluminum 4 is a perfect pick-up. It's also great for someone who wants a "cool grey" sneaker but with more personality. The $210 USD price is standard for retros now. I think it's worth it if you appreciate the material and color story. It fills a specific gap in a collection. Pros? Definitely the versatility and premium materials. The colorway is easy to wear, and the suede/nubuck combo has a great texture. The metallic details add a luxury feel without being flashy. It's a Jordan 4 that doesn't scream for attention but gets it anyway from those who know. Let's talk on-feet. The "Air Jordan 4 Aluminum" fits TTS for me. The cushioning is... well, it's a classic Jordan 4. Don't expect Boost-level softness; it's firm but stable. The lockdown is good, though the plastic wings dig in a bit initially. Weight-wise, it's not the lightest sneaker, but it's manageable. For a Jordan series retro, the comfort is what it is—functional, not revolutionary.
