Durability is a big one—the nubuck and plastic wings can take a beating. The style is timeless; this is a legend in the "Jordan" series. It's also surprisingly easy to match with outfits. That classic black, white, and red combo works with almost anything, from jeans to shorts. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "4" sits higher on the ankle than a "1" or a "3". Cushioning-wise, I'd say it's similar to a "3" but a bit more structured. Versus a modern "Jordan 37"? Completely different world. This is about style, not court performance. The "Bred 4" is a lifestyle staple. Final take: This is a definitive sneaker. The quality is good for a retro, the colorway is perfect, and it wears well. It's not the comfiest "Jordan", but it's one of the coolest. If you've always wanted a pair, you won't regret copping the "Bred 4s". Just maybe wear them around the house first to break in that upper! Alright, let's get these out of the box. First impression? The "Air Jordan 4 Bred" just looks mean. The black nubuck feels solid, and that pop of red on the outsole and netting is iconic. For $210 USD, you expect quality, and the initial build here seems on point. It's a classic Jordan silhouette that never gets old.
