Also, that nubuck gets dirty easily, so you gotta be careful. If you want a super plush, modern sneaker feel, this "Air Jordan 4" might not be for you. Major pros? The style is unbeatable. The "Air Jordan 4 Retro" is a legend. Durability is usually good, the materials hold up. It's also a very breathable shoe thanks to that mesh netting on the sides. For a retro basketball shoe, it performs well for all-day wear. The look is the biggest selling point – it's just a cool, classic sneaker that never goes out of fashion. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "4 Retro" sits nicely between the bulky "3" and the sleeker "5". It has more structure than a "1", but isn't as tech-focused as an "11". For $210 USD, you're paying for that iconic look and heritage. I'd say the comfort is similar to a "3", maybe a tad less cushioning. It's its own thing, really. Who should maybe skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, look at newer models. Also, if you need a super breathable gym or summer shoe, this isn't it. For the $210 USD price tag, you're paying for the name and the legacy, not cutting-edge tech.
