This rare air jordan 4 is a head-turner "because" it's different. That white, navy, and grey combo? Fire for spring/summer fits. It doesn't scream "basketball shoe." It's a fashion-forward take. The main drawback? You're paying for design innovation over top-tier materials or tech. Who should "skip" it? Purists who live for every OG detail on their Jordan retro models. The changes here are significant — no classic mesh, simplified wings. If those iconic elements are non-negotiable for you, then this 'Rare Air' version just won't hit the same. And hardcore hoops players, obviously. For the camera or just walking around, this 'Black / Cement' Rare Air Jordan 4 colorway is super versatile. It goes with almost anything. The lack of loud branding works in its favor for a clean, everyday fit. However, that same simplicity might feel a bit "plain" if you're used to the bold details of OG Jordan releases. Conversely, who should skip it? Hardcore OG Jordan 4 collectors who need every detail replicated. Also, folks seeking maximal comfort or technical innovation—look elsewhere in the Jordan series. This is about style and silhouette over cutting-edge feel. And if you hate cleaning your kicks, maybe consider a darker colorway.
