The biggest pro is the "material quality". That suede is fantastic. Secondly, the "color versatility" is a huge win – you can dress these up or down easily. Third, it's a Jordan 4 – the "iconic design" speaks for itself. It's a comfortable, well-built sneaker that gets you compliments without being overly hype. For a $210 USD sneaker, you're getting good value in today's market. Now, potential cons. If you need max comfort, remember the AJ4 isn't a Boost or ZoomX shoe. The ankle collar can be stiff for some. Also, the colorway, while clean, isn't a groundbreaking "must-have" for everyone. It's subtle. If you were expecting a wild Nigel Sylvester design, this is more refined. The $210 USD price point is standard, but it's still an investment for a retro basketball shoe. Final verdict? I'm really into the Air Jordan 4 Nigel "Brick by Brick." It's a thoughtful, well-executed collaboration that offers a fresh perspective on a classic. The quality justifies the price for me. It's a great wearer and a cool piece for the collection. Would I recommend it? Yes, if the style speaks to you. It's not for everyone, and that's okay—but for the right person, it's a fantastic pick-up from the Jordan series this year. Who should maybe pass? If you're new to Jordans and want your first pair of 4s, I'd probably point you to a more iconic color like the 'Bred' or 'Military Blue'. Also, if you're strictly a comfort-first wearer, the AJ4 might disappoint you. And if that suede upkeep sounds like a hassle, this might not be your ideal daily driver.
