The midsole tech in this RM model just works better for all-day wear compared to the sometimes-stiff retro. It's the biggest practical upgrade. Also, the construction feels really solid. For $210, you're getting a well-made shoe. The Air Jordan 4 RM isn't just a cosmetic change; it has a tangible feel improvement. To wrap up, would I recommend copping the Air Jordan 4 RM? Yeah, I think so. It offers something new within a beloved silhouette. Just go in knowing what it is: a premium, style-forward lifestyle shoe with a classic Jordan 4 feel, not a comfort revolution. Your collection, your call! Worth the cop? If you're open to a new interpretation of a legend, yes. Try them on if you can. Feel that updated fit and lighter weight. The "Air Jordan 4 RM" isn't trying to be the original—and that's its biggest strength, or its dealbreaker, depending on what you're looking for. On feet, the design really shines. The mix of textures on this "Red Metallic" version—the nubuck, the mesh, the hits of grey—it all works together so well. In natural light, the colors are deep and rich. The Air Jordan 4 RM has a great presence; it's a statement sneaker without being too loud. It just looks "correct" with jeans or shorts.
