If you've always loved the look but hated the stiff feel, the Air Jordan 4 Nike SB Navy is your answer. It's also great for sneakerheads who appreciate thoughtful collabs that add real value, not just hype. Now, potential cons... The silhouette is still a chunky AJ4. If you prefer low-profile sneakers, this ain't it. Also, that beautiful nubuck? It's gonna get dirty, and you gotta be careful with creasing. And honestly, for true skateboarding, some might still prefer a traditional cupsole. It's a hybrid. Comparing it to my other "Jordan" 4s? It's a different beast. A regular Retro 4 can feel a bit stiff and bulky. This "Nike SB" version? It's more flexible from the get-go. The tongue is also padded differently — less restrictive. If you find standard 4s uncomfortable, this collaboration might change your mind. On foot now, and the difference is immediate. The "Jordan 4" SB version has that Zoom Air unit in the heel, and it's "noticeably" more cushioned than a standard retro 4. The insole is also plusher. The fit? It's snug, but in a good, supportive way for skateboarding or just walking. The padded tongue and collar are a huge upgrade for comfort. This is a functional tweak I can get behind.
