I laced up these "Jordan 4 Retros", and the fit is true to size for me. The comfort is... it's a retro, so you know what to expect. It's not ultra-plush like some modern shoes, but the Air unit in the heel does its job for casual wear. The lockdown is good, though the plastic wings can feel a bit stiff initially. They're not heavy, but you definitely feel their presence. Now, potential downsides? The toe box can feel a bit stiff for some people – it might need a break-in period. And if you're used to super-soft, modern cushioning like React or Boost, the Air unit in here might feel a bit basic. It's not a performance basketball shoe anymore, so manage those expectations. Putting these on... the fit is pretty true to size for me. The leather upper is stiff at first – no surprise there – but it'll break in. The cushioning? It's that familiar Air unit in the heel. It's not super plush like modern runners, but it's comfortable for all-day wear. The lockdown is good, and the weight is manageable. It's a classic basketball silhouette, after all. Major pros? Iconic style. Incredible versatility - you can wear these with almost anything. The build quality on this retro is generally good. They're a statement piece that doesn't scream for attention. If you love the "Jordan series", this is a must-have silhouette.
