It's a grown-up, well-made colorway on a classic silhouette. The materials justify the price tag for me. It's a great addition to any sneaker rotation that needs a reliable, stylish option. This is a strong release from Jordan Brand this season. Comparing it to my other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 RM is definitely more modern and wearable than a retro 4. It's less bulky around the ankle. Versus a Jordan 1? You're getting more cushioning here for sure. But it lacks that iconic, classic basketball profile, you know? Major pros? The versatility is the biggest win. The color blocking is smart and wearable. Construction seems on point—no glue stains or major flaws on my pair. For a $200 Jordan release, it feels like you're getting what you pay for. It's a solid, everyday rotation kind of shoe. Now, a potential con? The design changes won't be for everyone. Purists who love the stiff, original 4 construction might find this RM version "too" soft or too different. Also, that molded heel piece is a distinct look you gotta be into. It's not a subtle update.
