The white-based Air Jordan 4 'White Thunder' is easy to style. They're also a great entry point if you don't own a 4 yet and want something that isn't a super common colorway. The build feels sturdy, so I'm not too worried about creasing super fast. Comparing it to other Jordan 4s, this sits in that premium "atmosphere" tier. It's not a OG colorway, but it has that timeless feel. The materials feel a step above some of the recent retro releases. If you like the "Fire Red" or "White Cement" vibe but want something less common, this is a great alternative. Putting these on... the fit is true to size for me. The "Air Jordan 4" is never the most comfortable shoe, let's be real. You get that familiar, slightly stiff feel around the forefoot, but the lockdown is solid. They're not heavy, but you definitely feel the structure of the shoe. Now, for the cons – and this is just my honest take. The toe box creasing... it's gonna happen, especially with this white leather. If you're super picky about keeping your kicks pristine, that might bug you. Also, while comfortable, they're not "all-day walk around the city" comfortable like some newer tech-focused sneakers. The ankle collar can be stiff initially. It's a style-first shoe, not a comfort-first one.
