The box is classic, and pulling these out? The black nubuck feels premium right away. That iconic silhouette with the red accents and cement grey hits is just "chef's kiss". For $210 USD, the initial quality seems on point. This is a Jordan series legend, no question. Alright, so here we go with the "Air Jordan 4 Bred". First thing out of the box? That iconic silhouette is just "chef's kiss". The black nubuck feels premium, and the contrasting cement grey hits? They pop. For a retro, the initial build quality seems solid. You're paying that premium $220 USD price, but the presentation feels right. Comparing it to other "Jordan" models... the 4 sits uniquely. It's bulkier than a 1 or a 3, but that's part of its charm. The support is different – more structured. If you're used to the sleekness of a 1, the 4 might feel a bit chunkier at first. But for all-day comfort, I'd take these over some others. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 Bred is more structured than a Jordan 1. It's bulkier than a 3, but I think it has more presence. Versus newer models like the 36? It's not even close in tech, but for style and heritage, the 4 Bred wins every time for me.
