The fit is true to size for me, with a secure, "locked-in" feel around the midfoot thanks to those plastic wings. The cushioning is that familiar Air Jordan Retro 4 feel – firm but not uncomfortable, giving you that classic court feel. It's not a modern, plush ride, but that's part of its charm for sneakerheads. Comparing it to other retros? The "air jordan retro 4" sits between the AJ3 and AJ5 for me. More structured than a 3, but less bulky than a 5. It has its own unique vibe. If you want pure comfort, maybe look at the AJ13. But if you want iconic style and that '89 vibe? This is your shoe. On-foot, the weight of the "Jordan 4" is noticeable. It's not super heavy, but you feel it – especially compared to a modern runner. The "trade-off"? That weight comes from a solid, well-built upper. For all-day wear? Your feet might feel it after several hours. It's a trade-off between structure and lightness. Putting these on, the lockdown is immediate—that's a big pro. The upper wraps your foot nicely. A possible con? The toe box can crease noticeably, which some people hate (I think it adds character). Compared to a Retro 3, the 4 feels more structured and protective. It's a toss-up between which silhouette you prefer, but this one holds a special place.
