Also, if you're super rough on your shoes, the light materials might stress you out. Beginners to the Jordan series might want to start with a more iconic OG colorway first. But for a seasoned sneakerhead, this is a really fun and stylish pick-up. Now, potential downsides. That beautiful white nubuck and leather? They will get dirty, and you'll need to clean them. The price, $210, is standard for Retros but still steep for some. Also, if you need ultra-modern, bouncy cushioning, this isn't it. The AJ4 'White Thunder' is about style and heritage over cutting-edge tech. My final take? I'm really liking this 'White Thunder' Jordan 4. It fills that "white sneaker" role but with tons of character from the AJ4 design details. The price is what it is in today's market. I'd say it's a worthwhile cop, especially if you can get it at retail. It's a future classic in my eyes – simple, effective, and undeniably cool. On foot now, and the fit is true to size for me. The lockdown is good, but let's be real – the Air Jordan 4 is never known for being a plush, comfort-first sneaker. It's more about that stable, supportive feel. They're not heavy, but you definitely feel the structure. If you're used to modern foam, this might feel a bit stiff at first.
