.. wow. The all-black everything is "seriously" sleek in hand. The nubuck feels premium, and the silhouette is just iconic. For around $210 USD, the quality seems on point right out of the box. This is a clean, stealthy addition to the Jordan series, no doubt. Comparing it to other Jordans... it's heavier & less flexible than, say, a Jordan 1. But the "Jordan 4" offers more ankle support for sure. Compared to a lighter retro like the Jordan 3, the 'Black Cat' feels more substantial & rugged. It's a different kind of beast. If you love the 4's bulky aesthetic, you'll love this version. Let's talk about the fit. I went true to size with these mens air jordan retro 4 black cat, and the lockdown is pretty solid. The padding around the ankle feels supportive. However, I gotta be real—the cushioning isn't plush. You're getting that classic, firmer Retro 4 feel, which some might find a bit stiff initially for all-day wear. Who are these for? If you love the Jordan 4 silhouette and want a versatile, wearable colorway that isn't white or grey, this is it. Great for collectors of the "Black Cat" pack or anyone wanting a shoe that works with minimalist or techwear styles. It's a solid rotation piece.
