First impressions? The shape is "solid" – really classic, no weird QC issues on my pair. This 'Mineral Slate' colorway is so clean in person, it's got this muted, almost greyish-blue tone that's super versatile. For a women's release, they nailed the execution. Straight out of the box, it's a winner. Is the Air Jordan 4 overhyped? Getting this 'Fire Red' pair in hand, the quality control seems better than some recent retros. The first lace-up felt snug and supportive. The classic colorway looks amazing in sunlight. Versus a Dunk, it offers more tech (that visible Air unit) and structure. Big pro is its place in sneaker history - it's a legend. The possible downside? The price has crept up to $200 USD. I'd recommend this to someone who wants a piece of that history and a versatile red/white/black sneaker. Maybe not for someone on a tight budget just entering the sneaker game. Is it worth the retail price? For me, opening this "wmns Air Jordan 4 Retro", the answer leans yes. The craftsmenship is there, the color is pristine, and it's a piece of history. On feet, they're not "comfort" kings like some modern runners, but they're perfectly fine for walking around. The look is what you're buying—that iconic, boxy silhouette that makes any outfit pop. It's not the most innovative shoe in 2024, but it doesn't need to be. Worth it for fans of the model. Not worth it if you prioritize cutting-edge comfort above all. On foot now – and I gotta be real. The initial feel is... firm. The Air unit in the heel is there, but don't expect cloud-like comfort. It's more about stability. The fit? Pretty true to size for me. The mesh side panels & that plastic wing cage give a secure, "locked-in" feel. If you have wider feet, maybe consider half a size up – just a thought.
