It delivered on the hype I had for the colorway. The materials are good, the design is iconic, and they just look fun. My advice? If you're on the fence, see them in person. That yellow really sells it. They're a great addition to the Jordan 4 lineup this year. Just maybe keep a sneaker eraser handy. How do they look on camera / in person? Honestly, the 'White Thunder' colorway photographs "really" well. The contrast is perfect. In natural light, that thunder yellow on the eyelets and heel tab just grabs attention. This is a shoe that will stand out in a fit pic or on the street. It's a loud, statement piece within the Jordan series, for sure. On foot now. The comfort is... it's a classic Jordan 4. You're not getting Zoom Air cloud-like feel, it's more of a firm, supportive ride. The lockdown is good, the collar padding is decent. It's not a heavy shoe, but you definitely feel the structure. For all-day wear? Maybe not. But for style and that retro basketball feel, it's on point. Comparing it to other 4s, like my Military Blues, the 'White Thunder' has a different energy. It's more vibrant and summery versus the muted, classic tones. The build and shape feel consistent with recent AJ4 retros. If you like the 4's silhouette but want something that stands out from the usual grey or black colorways, this is a great option to consider.
