It's bulkier, more of a statement. The cushioning is also different—more impact protection than the 1s, but not as plush as, say, a Jordan 13. It occupies its own unique space in the Jordan series, and that's why it's so beloved. Who should maybe skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, look elsewhere. Also, if you're on a tight budget, $210 is a lot for a shoe with outdated cushioning. And if you hate cleaning your sneakers, the light materials on this specific Air Jordan 4 might stress you out. It's not a versatile "performance" buy. In summary: The Nike Air Jordan 4 delivers on its promise. Great looks, durable build, and iconic status. Just know what you're getting into with the fit and feel. For me, it's a worthwhile addition to the rotation. Thanks for watching—let me know your thoughts on this Jordan series classic in the comments below! Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits higher off the ground than a Jordan 1. It's also a bit bulkier than a Jordan 3. But that's its charm! It has a unique, chunky profile that I really love. For casual wear, I might prefer this over some of the lower-cut models.
