Also, if you prefer a more streamlined, low-profile sneaker, the bulk of the Air Jordan 4 might not be your thing. It's a style-first shoe, remember that. Bottom line from my experience: The Nike Air Jordan 4 delivers on its promise. It looks incredible on foot, the quality is there, and it connects you to sneaker culture. It's not a perfect, modern shoe, but it's a near-perfect icon. Would I recommend it? For most collectors and style-focused folks, absolutely yes. Just maybe try them on first if you can. Comparing these to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits higher than a Jordan 1, for sure. It's bulkier but also offers more ankle support. Versus a Jordan 3, the toe box feels roomier. The Jordan 4 has its own unique vibe – it's sportier and more technical-looking than some of the earlier models in the series. Putting these on... the fit is true to size for me. The Air unit in the heel gives a nice, familiar cushioning. It's not the most plush Jordan ever, but it's comfortable for all-day wear. The upper is supportive without being restrictive. For a retro, the Air Jordan 4 still delivers a reliable on-foot feel.
