Just go in knowing the care involved with the materials and the firm ride. For around $210 USD, you're getting a piece of Jordan history in one of its coolest, most wearable colorways. Thumbs up from me. Who should maybe think twice? If you're new to sneakers and want your first, loud statement piece, this might be too understated. If you prioritize ultra-soft, modern cushioning above all else, you might be disappointed. And if you live in a really wet climate, maintaining this suede will be a constant battle. It's a specific shoe for a specific taste. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "mens air jordan retro 4 black cat" is way more understated than, say, a Bred 4. It lacks the pop of color, but that's the point. Versus a Jordan 1, it's a bulkier, more structured shoe. It's for a different vibe—less classic basketball, more modern streetwear edge. Alright, so I just got the "mens air jordan retro 4 black cat" in hand, and wow—the all-black suede is even better in person. The build quality feels solid right out of the box, no glue stains or anything funky. That stealthy, monochromatic look? It's iconic for a reason. Honestly, for a retro, the materials are pretty impressive straight away.
