The tech here is 30+ years old. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $210 is a lot for a shoe that isn't pushing any comfort boundaries. It's an investment in style/history, not tech. So, should you cop? If you love the Jordan 4 and OG color stories, 100% yes. The Air Jordan 4 Fire Red is a definitive release. But if you prioritize modern cushioning above all else, you might be disappointed. For $210 USD, you're buying an icon. And sometimes, that's more than enough reason. That's my real, honest review. My final take? I'm really liking the Air Jordan 4 Fire Red. It delivers exactly what it promises: a clean, OG colorway on a legendary silhouette. The $210 USD feels justified for the quality and legacy. It's not the most exciting release of the year, but it's one of the most reliable. A true workhorse in a rotation. Comparing it to other Jordans? It's more wearable than a super loud colorway, and I find it more comfortable for all-day wear than, say, a Jordan 1. But if you're coming from something like a Jordan 13 or a modern performance shoe, the tech here feels dated. That's not a bad thing, just a different vibe.
