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. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all, maybe look at newer models. The price, $210, is steep for some for a retro. If you're not into maintenance, the light-colored nubuck might stress you out. It's a lifestyle piece first. Who might want to skip it? If ultimate, all-day comfort is your #1 priority, look elsewhere. Performance basketball players should choose modern models. Also, if you prefer low-profile, minimal sneakers, the AJ4's chunkiness might not be your vibe. It's a statement piece. On foot now. 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.
