It lives up to the hype for me. The look, the fit, the heritage—it all comes together. Would I recommend it? Absolutely, especially if you dig retro basketball kicks. Just go true to size and give the sole a little time to break in. Solid pickup Who should maybe pass? If you prioritize ultimate, all-day comfort above all else, there are more modern options. Also, if you have a very wide foot, the fit might be restrictive. It's a classic design, not always geared for modern comfort standards. Now, a potential con for some: the comfort tech is "old". Don't expect React or ZoomX foam here. It's a firm, 90s basketball feel. If you're used to modern, plush sneakers, the Air Jordan 4 might feel a bit stiff at first. Just being real with you. Potential downside? The break-in. The heel collar can be stiff at first and might rub. Also, the outsole traction on dust can be just okay. If you want a super soft, cloud-like step-in feel, this isn't it. The Air Jordan 4 is about heritage and style over max comfort tech.
