The tech here is 30+ years old. Also, the toe box creasing on these is inevitable. And at $210, some might want more premium materials. It's a classic, but not a luxury performance model. Now, the not-so-great stuff. The main drawback? That classic AJ4 pinky toe rub. The plastic wing eyelets can press on your foot until the shoe breaks in. Also, at $210, it's a premium price for a shoe that isn't the most technologically advanced. If you want max comfort out of the box, look elsewhere. So, who is this for? I'd say it's perfect for the Jordan collector who wants a fresh colorway that's easy to style. Also great for someone getting their first pair of 4s – it's a classic model in a clean color. If you appreciate the AJ4's history and iconic design, the 'Sierra Red' is a really strong release that executes the formula well. Who should skip it? If you need maximum cushioning for all-day comfort, look elsewhere. Also, if you only go for the super-limited, hyped releases, this general release might not excite you. But for a stylish, everyday sneaker? It's a strong contender.
