The quality is there, the color is legendary. It's not trying to be something it's not. If you love the 4s and want a pop of color, you'll likely be very happy. Just be ready for the attention and maybe keep a suede brush handy. In summary: The Air Jordan 4 'Lightning' delivers on its promise. Great looks, decent quality, and major nostalgia. Just know what you're getting—a firm, iconic sneaker that makes a statement. Would I recommend it? Absolutely, to the right person. It's a classic for a reason. So, who is the Air Jordan 4 Lightning "for"? It's for collectors who missed the earlier retros. It's for style-focused wearers who love bold colorways and don't mind the firmer feel. It's a perfect summer rotation shoe or a piece for a sneaker collection that needs a pop of color. If you grew up loving this colorway, it's a no-brainer. Now, a potential con: that bright suede. It's a magnet for dirt and stains. If you're planning to wear these daily or in bad weather, think twice. They'll require maintenance. Also, if you need plush, all-day comfort, the Air Jordan 4 Lightning isn't it. The cushion setup is dated, and some might find it uncomfortable for long periods.
