First thing I noticed? The quality is solid. The leather feels nice, and that classic silhouette is just iconic. Unboxing these is always a vibe, you know? The colorway is clean and super versatile. For $210 USD, the presentation feels right. Definitely a strong first impression from this Jordan series release. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits between the AJ3 and AJ5 for me. It's less sleek than a 1, but has more going on than a 3. The comfort is different from an AJ11, which is more court-focused. This is a lifestyle/retro basketball hybrid. It has its own unique place in the Jordan series lineage, no doubt. My final take? I'm really liking this "Nike Air Jordan 4". It's not a perfect, comfy-all-day shoe, but few retros are. For its looks, heritage, and versatility, it's a win. At $210 USD, it feels justified for such an iconic model. Would I recommend it? Yeah, especially if you dig the colorway. Let's talk on-feet. The Air Jordan 4 has a decent comfort level. It's not super plush like some modern shoes, but the Air unit in the heel does its job. The lockdown is pretty good once you lace them up. For a retro basketball shoe, the feel is what I anticipated—supportive but not exactly a cloud.
