Second, the quality seems consistent – no major glue stains or issues on my pair. The classic AJ4 design always gets compliments, and this colorway makes it approachable. For $210, you're getting a timeless silhouette that won't go out of style next season. That's a win in my book. Now, a potential con: the comfort tech is dated. If you're used to React foam or modern basketball shoes, the Air Jordan 4's ride will feel stiff and flat. Also, the nubuck can be prone to creasing and water spots. It's not a performance shoe, and it's not built with cutting-edge materials. Just manage those expectations. Now, a potential con: the suede. It's beautiful but needs care. If you live in a rainy area or aren't into maintenance, this might stress you out. Also, the outsole is a light color that will show dirt. It's not a "beat 'em up" shoe. That's something to consider for sure. Putting these on, the fit is true to size for me. The Air Jordan 4 cave stone release has that classic AJ4 structure – supportive, but you know it's there. The cushioning is decent, not super plush like some modern sneakers, but it's comfortable for all-day wear. The suede upper feels nice, though I'm already thinking about keeping it clean.
