.. the fit is true to size for me. The "Air Jordan 4" has a bit of a break-in period, honestly. Initial step-in comfort is okay—you definitely feel that heel Air unit—but the forefoot is a little firm out of the box. The lockdown from the wings and laces is good, though. They're not the lightest shoe, but you feel that sturdy construction. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits differently than a Jordan 1. 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. Putting these on, the fit is true to size for me. The Air Jordan 4 isn't the most cushioned shoe ever, but you definitely feel that heel Air unit. The lockdown is good, and they're not too heavy. A comfortable, classic basketball sneaker feel. Now, potential cons. The breathability isn't great; your feet will get warm. Also, that firm midsole cushioning I mentioned—if you want plush, cloud-like comfort, look elsewhere. The toe box creasing is also pretty inevitable on these. It's part of the charm for some, a deal-breaker for others.
