It's definitely more supportive and substantial-feeling than an Air Jordan 1, but it doesn't have the plush, broken-in feel of a well-worn Air Jordan 3. The weight is noticeable too - you feel like you're wearing a "proper" sneaker, not just a slipper. It's a distinct, solid experience within the Jordan series. Here's a real talk con: BREATHABILITY. Or lack thereof. The upper doesn't let much air in, so your feet might get warm. Also, the plastic wing eyelets can sometimes press on a specific part of your foot. It's not a dealbreaker for me, but for some people? It could be annoying. Just something to be aware of. To wrap it up: Opening this box was a blast from the past. Wearing them feels like wearing a legend. They aren't perfect by today's "tech" standards, but they have soul. That's what the best Jordan retros do. Would I recommend copping? If you connect with the story or the look, 100%. Just go in with the right expectations on fit and feel. Another solid retro from the Jordan series. Thanks for watching Final verdict? The Air Jordan 4 Retro is a legend. This 'Black Cat' all-black version is pure stealth mode. It's not the most comfortable shoe in my closet, but it's one of the coolest. I'd recommend it to any style-focused wearer. Just know what you're getting: iconic looks over modern comfort. For me? That's a worthy trade.
