The Air Jordan 4 has a snug, secure feel around the midfoot, which I like. The cushioning from the Air unit in the heel? It's decent for casual wear, but don't expect ultra-plush, modern comfort. It's a firm, supportive ride that's perfect for all-day wear without being bulky. Putting these on... the fit is true to size for me. The forefoot lockdown is good, but the ankle collar? It's a bit stiff initially, like most 4s. The Air Sole unit gives you that familiar, firm cushioning—it's not super plush, but it's reliable for all-day wear. Definitely a comfortable sneaker. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits between the AJ3 and AJ5 for me. It's not as bulky as a 5, but has more presence than a 1. The lockdown from the wing eyelets is a signature feature. If you like the Jordan series but want something distinctive, this is a great middle ground. Now, a potential con for some: the breathability. The Air Jordan 4's upper doesn't have much ventilation. If you're in a hot climate or plan to wear them for long, active periods, your feet might get warm. It's a trade-off for that structured, supportive feel. Just something to keep in mind, depending on your needs.
