Major advantage? Versatility. This neutral colorway—think classic black, white, and grey—goes with literally everything. The simplified design also makes it look sleek, not clunky. For $250, it’s a premium sneaker that can be your daily driver. That’s a big win for this "rare air jordan 4" iteration. Now, the potential downside — purists might hate this. If you live for the classic Jordan 4 structure and all its details, the "rare air jordan 4" will feel... stripped down. It misses that rugged, basketball-ready heritage. Also, the cushioning is still vintage — don't expect Boost or ZoomX levels of comfort for all-day wear. So, how do they "feel" on foot? Honestly, the comfort is… fine. It's not plush like some newer models. The cushioning is firmer, which I actually don't mind for all-day wear. The fit is true to size with a decent wrap. If you're coming from a "Retro 4", the "Rare Air" version is noticeably lighter and less restrictive—a plus for summer. After wearing these all day, the comfort break-in is minimal – they stay firm. The "rare air jordan 4"'s fit is true to size, good lockdown. Aesthetically, they age well; scuffs might blend in. Pro: Lightweight and breathable. Con: The toe box creasing is pretty noticeable. For a collector who wants a fresh, different take on a classic – this is it.
