Honestly, the comfort here is pretty standard for a Jordan 4—which means it's "fine", but not plush. The cushioning is firm, you definitely feel that classic AJ4 feel. The build quality on my pair is solid, no major glue issues or anything. It’s a straightforward, no-fuss wear. If you’re looking for a cloud-like feel, this isn't it. Conversely, who should skip these? If you're buying your "first ever" Jordan 4, I'd point you to a core retro model instead. You gotta experience the original first. Also, if you need maximum cushioning or are a strict OG detail fanatic, the "Rare Air Jordan 4" might feel like a compromise to you. Alright, let's get into these. First impression out of the box? The 'Rare Air' Jordan 4 has a super clean, simplified look. You immediately notice the lack of the classic mesh side panels—it's all leather. The white, grey, and infrared colorway pops nicely, and for $200 USD, the initial quality seems solid. It's a different vibe from your typical Jordan 4, for sure. On feet now—and wow, the comfort is standard for the Jordan series. It's not super plush, but it's supportive. The fit is true to size for me; nice lockdown. The "rare air jordan 4" is a bit heavy—typical for this model—but it feels sturdy. A solid, wearable sneaker for sure.
