The fit is true to size for me. The Air Jordan 4 has a firm, supportive feel, not super plush like some modern shoes. The lockdown is good, especially with the wing eyelets. It's a comfortable shoe for all-day wear, but don't expect crazy cushioning. It's more about that stable, classic basketball feel. Comparing it to my other Jordans... the Jordan 4 sits higher than a Jordan 1 and has more structure than a Jordan 3. The cushioning is firmer than the newer, more tech-heavy models. It's a different experience—more about classic style and that iconic profile than modern performance. Who should maybe skip it? Performance seekers or comfort-first buyers. If you're on your feet all day and need modern cushioning, this isn't it. Also, if you prefer a minimal, low-profile sneaker, the Air Jordan 4's chunkiness might not be your vibe. It's a statement piece, not a barefoot-feel shoe. Now, potential cons. The toe box can crease noticeably. Some find the strap system unnecessary. At $210, some might want more modern comfort. If you need max cushion, this isn't it. The Jordan 4 is about style and heritage over pure performance.
