You're paying for the iconic design and heritage. The Air Jordan 4 is a piece of sneaker history. If you love the model and this colorway, it's a solid addition. Just manage your comfort expectations. Let's talk about the on-foot feel. I laced up these Air Jordan 4s, and the fit is true to size for me. The cushioning? It's firm – it's that classic Air unit in the heel. Don't expect crazy, bouncy comfort like some modern shoes. The ankle collar gives good support, though. It's a comfortable shoe, but it's more about that iconic feel than plush softness, for sure. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 1? The AJ4 is a bit bulkier, a bit more of a statement. Versus a Jordan 3, I'd say the 4 feels more structured and locked down. It's a different kind of comfort—more about support than sinking-in softness. If you like that substantial, protective feel, you'll appreciate this. Now, for some real talk - potential cons. The toe box on the Air Jordan 4 can feel a bit narrow for people with wider feet. Also, the outsole is flat, so traction on wet surfaces isn't the best. If you're looking for a performance basketball shoe or max comfort, this retro isn't really built for that.
