.. okay, the fit is true to size for me. The lockdown is good, typical AJ4 feel. Comfort? It's a Jordan 4, guys. Let's be real - it's not a Boost or a Zoom Air kind of ride. It's firm, but it's "that" classic basketball silhouette feel. For $210 USD, you're paying for the look and the legacy, not groundbreaking comfort. Who should maybe skip? If you're buying your first Jordan and want that iconic, bold Chicago or Bred vibe, this isn't it. Also, if comfort is your #1 priority, there are better modern options. And if you already have a lot of neutral-toned sneakers, this might feel repetitive unless you're a dedicated Jordan 4 fan. Now, potential cons? If you need modern, bouncy cushioning, look elsewhere. The "Air Jordan 4" is about heritage, not React foam. Also, the toe box can crease in a specific way some people hate. And at around "$210 USD", it's a standard retro price, but still a chunk of change for a 30+ year old design. Alright, so I just got the Air Jordan 4 Retro 'Cave Stone' in hand. First impression? The colorway is super clean and versatile. The mix of that soft sail, light grey, and that subtle cave stone hits is really sophisticated. The quality on the nubuck feels pretty decent right out of the box. For a Jordan 4, the shape looks good. Definitely a solid start.
