The "Red Metallic" hits are vibrant in person, way more than in pictures. The mesh and leather combo has great texture. On camera, these are gonna look fantastic. Compared to my older Jordan 4s, the RM's toe box and overall profile just look a bit more refined. It's a subtle update that I personally really dig. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, look at newer models. If you're really rough on your shoes, the light materials might stress you out. And if you're on a tight budget, $210 is a commitment for a shoe that's not "technically" groundbreaking. It's about the look and heritage. Who should maybe pass? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, look elsewhere. Also, if you have very wide feet, the fit might be an issue. And if you're new to Jordans and want a "comfy" intro model, maybe start with a Jordan 1 Zoom CMFT or something. This isn't that. Major pro? The updated design is just easier to wear casually. It's less restrictive in the ankle, and the break-in time seems shorter. The materials, while different, are still high-quality for a $210 sneaker. It's a fresh take on an icon without completely losing the DNA.
