That white, black, and red contrast? "Chef's kiss". On foot, the shape is aggressive & it makes you look taller. But—& this is a big but for some—the mesh panels & plastic netting can be a pain to clean. If you're someone who likes to keep your sneakers pristine, be prepared to put in the work with this one. Final thoughts on this Air Jordan Retro 4. It's a legend for a reason. The build quality, the timeless design—it's a sneakerhead staple. At $210, it's an investment in a classic. I'd recommend it to collectors and anyone building a rotation of iconic shoes. I wouldn't recommend it as your primary, everyday gym or running shoe. It's a style and culture icon, first and foremost. Pros? Timeless design, incredible heritage, and surprisingly durable construction. The nubuck/leather combo on this release is easy to clean. It's a sneaker that looks good with almost anything—jeans, shorts, joggers. A major pro for collectors is that this is a straight retro of a super iconic color. If you missed it in '89, here's your chance. The Jordan brand nailed the nostalgia factor with this one. On feet, they look even better. The shape is just "right" on this retro. I'm wearing the 'Military Blue' pair ($210 USD), and the contrast pops perfectly. That mesh netting and the cement-like grey accents... it's a timeless look. On camera, the details really stand out. This is a shoe that looks good in-hand and on-foot, no doubt.
