Slipping into these "Jordan 4s", the fit is true to size for me. The lockdown is good, but the comfort... it's not modern, you know? There's cushioning, but it's firm. It's that classic "Air Jordan" feel – supportive, not plush. If you want a cloud-like ride, look elsewhere. Now, a real con: the weight. They're noticeably heavier than most modern sneakers. If you're used to ultra-lightweight trainers, these will feel clunky. Also, break-in time is real – that stiff leather and plastic cage need a few wears to soften up around your foot. Let's talk pros. The biggest advantage of this "Air Jordan 4 Retro" is its style. It's an absolute classic. The build is durable, and the materials, while not premium, are good for the price point (~$210 USD). It's also surprisingly breathable for a mostly leather shoe. You're buying a piece of sneaker history that still looks incredibly relevant today. Comparing it to other Jordans... the 4 sits uniquely. It's more substantial than a Jordan 1 or 3, but often more comfortable for long wear, in my opinion. The tech is simpler than a Jordan 11 or later models, but that's part of its charm. You're buying into a specific era of design with the "Air Jordan 4 Retro".
