It's a perfect representation shoe. Second, the build quality seems excellent—no glue stains or messy stitching on my pair. Third, it's a PE, so it has that exclusive, special-project aura without being crazy over-the-top. A definite win for Jordan and UH fans. Final verdict? I love this shoe. The execution is nearly flawless for what it is. But "worth it" depends entirely on you. For me, as a collector, yes - it's a special addition. For the average sneakerhead looking for a versatile red shoe, that $400+ could get you two fantastic general release pairs. It's a niche, premium product. No regrets here, though! On foot now - and honestly, the fit is classic AJ4. A bit roomy in the toe box for me, so I'd say go true to size. The cushioning? It's firm, you know? It's not super plush like some modern sneakers. But that's the Jordan 4 experience. The houston cougars details on the tongue and heel really pop when you're wearing them. It's a statement piece, for sure. On feet, the colorway really comes alive. The "Varsity Red" against the white midsole and grey accents is just "chef's kiss". It's a loud, proud PE colorway that demands attention. I love how the mesh and leather panels play together. This Houston Cougars Air Jordan 4 PE is gonna look insane on camera and in person. It's a statement piece, no doubt about it.
