This Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro goes with jeans, shorts, joggers... everything. The color-blocking is simple yet effective. Durability seems good too – the plastic wings and heel tab are sturdy. For a retro basketball shoe, it's built to last in your rotation. Now, a real talk con: breathability. That grey mesh on the side? Mostly for show. Your feet will get warm. Also, the outsole is a flat rubber, so traction on wet surfaces isn't the best. It's a lifestyle shoe first. Don't ball in these expecting modern performance. To wrap it up: Would I recommend copping? Yeah, I would—but try them on if you can. Feel that fit and that classic, firm cushioning for yourself. Don't expect a revolution in comfort; expect a piece of wearable history with great style. It's a cornerstone of the Jordan line. So, what do you guys think of the Jordan 4? Let me know in the comments below! Comparing it to other Jordans? The Jordan 4 Retro sits between the 3 and 5 for me. It's not as sleek as a 1, not as bulky as a 6. The toe box is roomier than a 3. If you're used to super plush shoes, this might feel a bit stiff initially. But that's part of its classic charm, you know?
