That padded tongue and collar can feel a bit stiff and warm at first. If you like a super-breathable, lightweight shoe, this might not be it. Also, the price point at $210 USD is getting up there for a retro release. Now, the not-so-great parts. The break-in period is real – that ankle area can rub. Also, the outsole is flat, so traction on super-slick courts might be iffy. If you want ultimate comfort or performance tech, look elsewhere. This is a lifestyle/retro shoe first. Just keeping it 100% real with you guys. So, who is this for? Honestly, it's for sneakerheads who appreciate the history of the Jordan series. It's for style-focused wearers who value a classic silhouette over max comfort. If you love the AJ4 design, specifically this 'Military Blue' colorway, you'll likely be happy with your purchase. Who should maybe skip it? If you're purely chasing performance or the softest step – this isn't it. Also, if you prefer more modern, streamlined silhouettes, the chunky look of the Air Jordan 4 might not be your thing. For $210, you really have to want "this specific" classic look.
