The way the midsole wraps up? So good. But I have to be real: ventilation is not this shoe's strength. Your feet will get warm in the summer. The Air Jordan Retro 4 is a fall/winter sneaker for me. It’s perfect with jeans or joggers. If you live in a hot climate & want a breezy shoe, this isn't it. For style points in cooler weather? 10/10. Sliding these on for the first time... classic Retro feel, honestly. The "Air Jordan Retro 4" isn't known for being a plush pillow. It's firm, but in a stable way. The heel Air unit does its job for casual wear ❤️. The lockdown from the lace wings is actually pretty great—your foot isn't going anywhere. It's a bit bulky, but that's part of the charm, right? Alright, let's get into these Air Jordan Retro 4 'Fire Red'. First off, the box — it's that classic Jordan "sight", you know? The shoe itself… the white leather is "clean", and that Fire Red hits "pop". Initial quality check? Stitching looks solid. For $210 USD, you're paying for that iconic silhouette and heritage. It just "screams" 80s/90s basketball. But – a potential CON: breathability. That upper doesn't breathe well, at all. In summer? Your feet will get warm. Also, the plastic heel clip can sometimes rub. It's not for everyone, especially if you're sensitive to heat or need max ventilation. Just keepin' it a buck with you guys.
