Love you guys. Don't ever retire.

Yeah. They’ve gotten to that point to where we’ll riot if they do retire 😂 .

[@shadowoftheson5144]

This is a solid shoe. I think over time people will appreciate this one even more. I’m definitely picking it up. I love red and I’m a sucker for the splatter. The on foot shots look 🔥

[@刘星烁]

Got'em

[@Eli-xu1hr]

​@@刘星烁I want them. What have you thought about them.

[@ckindle94]

I’ve never had a comfort issue with 4’s, I love them and these are probably my most anticipated release for the rest of the year👌🏼

[@Drew.Whitcomb]

The heel tab is red to hide the blood when it cuts you. It's basically a knife anyway.

[@ralphtree03]

[@stevoncampbell2115]

Got me rolling over here 😂😂😂

[@roboroflo8679]

I can imagine seeing these coming out when I was in the 4th grade and being blown away. No internet back then so if a kid walked in with something new, it was over.

[@jerrycallahan1436]

I really like em. The colors. The speckles. I like the back tab. I have tons of jordan shirts & shorts black red & white & gray with speckles. Love your videos & your knowledge of the shoes & materials. So glad you reviewed this one

[@lajit]

One of my favorite KZbin channels! Thank you for everything y’all do. Also love the adlibs and 80’s nostalgia

[@mihilcho82]

I do like these a lot for some reason…thank you guys

[@justinbaynes1512]

I wasn’t on board at first but they look good. The shape is nice and the color way is a lot better in person than it was online. A definite cop

[@MLundee1]

Getting the yellow out of the gray midsole on Black Cement 4s was super easy. I was scared too, but following Vic Almighty’s video made it really easy and they turned out perfect. Just use Rit, celaphane wrap and some sunlight.

[@unkillabledemonking]

I'm a shoe enthusiast and don't have much money to buy this stuff, but im here to appreciate all of this art, materials, and tech in making such a beautiful shoe. ❤

[@joncena168]

Hopefully fortune comes your bro and you get yourself a pair of J’s one day.

[@jeremymedina9970]

When I was younger 16years I couldn’t get them I had no money now that I’m 29 I make more money i work hard and now I got them

[@Rome8oh5]

The heel tab is the issue that I have with all 4’s unless they have the leather tab from the lightnings. Those I could wear perfectly but if it’s the hard plastic it kills my Achilles.

[@newyorkforever5779]

its weird.. some are softer than others. the 2012 cavs or knicks color way is much more flexible plastic than most of them.

[@eizenga]

The AMM4 and the SBMJ4 tabs are where it’s at.

[@javenterry8691]

I think the problem is there is too much white. It has the same color blocking as the fire red 4s, but the black and red parts are swapped. The only difference is the fire red 4s had black mesh which have it a nice balance

[@Manchester77OT]

I wish the Pine Green SB x AJ4s did the same also , those are probably my SoTY so far but think they would have popped more with the color / pine green behind the netting as well. Either way just don't like the red cements , comparing them to the Fire Red 4s pretty much every decision / tweak on them comes up short.

[@tomascencio5034]

Put some black laces to fire reds 🔥

[@holycreation]

@@tomascencio5034was thinking about the same

[@andrewdotmov]

Black laces solves this issue 👌

[@gwilt23]

These were the very first pair of Jordan's I ever owned 😎😎😎

[@davesguitarworld2296]

I don't own any 4s but these and the green pine SBs really have my attention. Great video as always! 🔥🔥🔥

[@TheFanRookie]

I really dig the look of the pines as well. Don’t own 4s either, but I’d go for those.

[@MichaelAnderson-bv4fq]

I got a lot of 4s but the pine green SB are very comfortable more than the regular more paden because they were made for skating so if you want to get a pair of Jordan 4's I'd go for the pine Green SB is definitely you might pay a little bit but it's worth

[@prophetbaby5569]

Passed on these for the bred reimagened💯

[@jasonc.8521]

This is the only YT channel I fw for sneaker content...everyone else goofy af.

[@Justin-pv9ki]

Seems like a slight thing is missing. Maybe a lace swap to black would do the trick? Not sure but I guess I'll go for them ;)

[@kerethlewis5280]

Yo nightwing , you almost reaching a mil subscribers!!!!! Keep being brilliant!! You and Mrs Wing

[@drewcifer2a]

The one thing i think they need is the same grey sued up front as the pine green pairs 🤷‍♂️ trying to get these for sure.

[@Manchester77OT]

Im good on these , I have the Fire Red 4s so not much use for these. Not bad but don't like that much red cement print like these have and the black lace crowns stand out much less than the red ones on the Fire Red 4s. Also no sort of color behind the netting makes them look a bit basic as well (especially compared to the Fire Red 4s). If you don't have the Fire Red 4s , not a bad alternative but very much an inferior version imo.

[@RevisaL_]

I personally love these 🔥 hit on the shock drop, didn’t think I’d keep them but once I got em in hand I couldn’t let em go 😅

[@flames1357]

Same

[@RevisaL_]

@@flames1357 they’re super clean 🧼

[@blitzsey]

[@davidarteaga6054]

Same, my first pair of 4s too. Take the OG factor out and I like these more than the fire reds.

[@BombTrady]

I’m so confused how people have them when they don’t release on SNKRS till September 9… like how

[@S.A.N.503]

I love these. My pair is going to be here tomorrow! Can't wait! They look so good on feet. I do, however, wish the back tab was white with a red Jumpman or black Jumpman. But I still love them. Another great review as always, bro!

[@theoriginalderhythm]

These are growing on me for sure. I took an L on the shock drop but, I’m hoping to cop on release day!

[@BAJLACRO]

those are amazing on foot! 😍😍😍😍

[@user-hn8eo7sh4m]

They clean, but I got the fire red and white cement 4’s so I’ll be good.

[@Madcatization]

I'm 50/50 on it and of course AJ 4s are crazy hot which makes it super difficult to cop. I might decide to grab one when it releases, if I can.

[@dadoflinus]

Thanks for all your reviews, Chris. I’d love to see an episode where you talk about how you look after your own collection (in box v out of box)

[@J13-h6y]

That heel tab sold me. Must cop! Going to try some black laces.

[@SPMNDK89]

The lightning 4s have a heel tab made out of leather and it's a dope touch too

[@WearTesters]

Which was first introduced on the Air Jordan 4 Columbia, Oreo and Chrome/Bling Retro + versions in 1999.

[@dapperdanny2957]

My man, you should totally do a video on reversing the yellowing once you get it down pat. And yes black with the red speckles would be fire!!

[@8LMW8]

don’t ever retire guys you guys review shoes so well! do more jordan’s !

[@Shoeby-doo]

Copped on shock drop...having them in hand changed my mind...especially with red laces

[@maki_roll]

The Air Jordan IV is my holy grail (specifically the white cement color) I strongly prefer the Nike Air logo in the back though. Jumpman logo ruins it for me 😅

[@joechill3905]

Best sneaker reviewer and channel on youtube

[@jordansantaga8378]

Don't be afraid to use that Saloncare 40 and remove that oxidation from your shoes - I think you mentioned your BC4's. I tried it out on my kids shoes and then had fun doing it on my own shoes. *** Be careful how long you leave them in the sun if you don't have an indoor setup.

[@Mack_Worlds_Media]

How long should I leave in the sun bro?

[@YNGKING01]

​@@Mack_Worlds_Mediadepends on where you live and how yellow they are. If u live in a place where it's currently in the mid-high 80s or higher maybe 1-2 hrs MAX. Then bring them in and let them chill for about an hr before putting them back out. Depending on the oxidation it may take a while (like 4-24 hrs). The danger with leaving them in the sun for too long is that the Saloncare 40/sauce/sole revive/etc. lol when applied to a area that was glued to the shoe can make that glue bond weaken when exposed to intense heat for long periods of time. Some people try combating this with bags of ice inside the shoe (which carry the risk of water damage) or cold paks. Reshoeven8r has tons of vids on their channel showing how they approach deoxidizing 4s. I left Weartesters/Chris a post (much longer than this lol) that gives more info on the process of you wanted to know more. I just did my Fear 4s last summer and the grey held up until about March. I also can't stress enough DON'T GET ANY ON THE UPPERS (if u do clean it off IMMEDIATELY) and wear gloves when u use the stuff if u've never worked with BEFORE. Goodluck homie

[@tacos420.7]

You should mention the cons as well

[@jordansantaga8378]

@@Mack_Worlds_Media Depends on where you live and how intense that sun is. Start by an hour on and an hour off just to make sure they don't get too hot. Also, if you have black outsoles, that will obviously draw more heat so watch for that. I'm no certified expert so take this all with a grain of salt, watch some videos on how to 'diy ice your own soles'

[@JM-fc9gm]

The back tag rocks ya’ll nuts

[@aarlam]

I copped 'em! These are 🔥🔥🔥🔥 They look sick on foot! These with some nice cargos....GAME OVER!

[@mikebears26]

If the back tab was still red with a Nike logo in white lettering. It would be a lot better.

[@gfunkyotrunk]

Great vid !! My first 4s purchase in over 20 years. I only managed to get a pair because a friend bought them for me. I had 0 chance with the online bots which always ruins everything. Love the 4s.

[@sicnic.]

Would love to see a video of your personal sneaker collection! Anyone else agree??

[@the_beevsknees]

At first it was going to be an easy pass for me but my friend hit on the shock drop and seeing them in person changed my mind 😂

[@rtspec6.496]

As always, great review Chris. I was able to cop on Sneakers today🎉 love the 4’s. These will join my Winterized and What The colorwayz✌🏻

[@Smitty_Werbenjägermanjensen_db]

I'm a wide-footer and stayed true to size. Initially, the were hella uncomfortable near the pinky toe area. I laced them loosely and wore them around the house a bit. The heel area wasn't very secure, and the back of the shoe would slip vertically, which was kind of annoying. After a little while I was able to lace them up a bit tighter and the pinky toe and loose heel issue went away. Maybe they just needed to be broken in a little bit? Dunno. I do like the Red Cement colorway, so I picked up a pair for myself when I copped a pair for my son. I figured I could always resell or return them if I wasn't feeling them. I don't typically wear AJ4s because I always thought they looked a bit toyish and they aren't the most comfortable Jordans out there, preferring other classic silhouettes like the Air Ships, 1, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 13s. I just wanted something different in the sneaker closet and since these have broken in rather nicely, I think I'll keep them. They give me a late 80s/early 90s hip hop vibe, so I can't complain about that. Stay, dope, Chris. One.

[@IAmInfinitus208]

Even for me as a standard/narrow foot at 9.5, I had to go down either 9, which I still ended up getting heel-slippage so I had to go full size down for AJ4s at 8.5, but I need that wiggle room.

[@scarlettmissredblack1381]

Thanks. Same issue with it slipping around the heel. It's only the right shoe which is tight around the pinky. It's annoying because they are nice but expensive.

[@intensevenom]

They’re ok, agree about a black back tab with red speckle 🔥, wish JB would just re-release all OG’s every 5 years at a minimum!! A remastered OG white cement 4 would be nice.

[@alexgarcia7401]

Don’t be scared to remove the yellowing from the black cements. I do it with a UV light and they look brand new after treatment. It does come back after a few wears but I just keep doing it and they always look fresh.

[@Smitty_Werbenjägermanjensen_db]

Never tried this before. Can you explain the UV light process in terms of what needs to be done to treat the yellowing? Thanks.

[@Allkindaoutside]

I copped and love them. My favorite release until the 11 in December.

[@RipNteargaming]

Honestly, the 4's are one of my least favorite Jordans along with the 2's. I don't necessarily hate them, I just think there's too many features/designs on the shoe. That heel tab is another reason lol. Not a bad colorway though.

[@aarond8110]

These actually looked better in person than pictures online. If you have the Fred Flintstone's yabba Dabba doo wide body foot definitely go up half a size. The will get those pinky toes ! Regular foot might be able to finesse the shoe some by loosening the laces some (try on if you can before buying to see) narrow footers can go true to size for that one to one fit.

[@sjuaree685]

Just got mine today! 🎉

[@sethburnham7264]

The first images of these online were horrible. After seeing multiple reviews on them, I love ‘em. The Fire Red’s are definitely better, but since I don’t have those, I’m really hoping to get these. And yeah, why can’t they make all 4’s feel like the SB Pine Green’s? When I wear mine, I almost forget I’m wearing 4’s, they are so comfortable!

[@StratBurst92]

The 4s are so iconic. I am going to cop a pail. for sure.

[@by_run]

Will def check these out when they release. Awesome review as always. 🔥🔥🔥

[@ferdinanddelmundoRN]

My favorite shoes and the colorway awesome😊🇵🇭

[@jas0n17-bad4]

Def a solid shoe, they look way better in person imo, only I don’t like is the back tag like you said

[@guyinthewhiteT]

The only shock drop I got a W on so I love em.

[@sunnydaze305kicksrock5]

Ur still my fav!! Love ur vids .. and these are basically a reverse fire red!

[@Sneaker_Fox]

I actually like it more than the Fire Red AJ4’s but the heel tab I agree should’ve been another color like black but I’m okay with red.

[@mwalkercpa]

Another great and honest review!

[@jayreed2630]

Bro that shirt is so fire I need a throwback back shirt like that

[@cracker135]

They’ll look nice with my Santa suit.. bout it. Thanks for the review!!

[@TheMashandDrum]

I 'm a sucker for red so I will grab these. However....now I can't unsee the large red back tab. lol.

[@kareemkhederoo4092]

Definite cop for me. I'm a sucker for a black/red/white combo.

[@deionthomas7800]

In about a 30 day span Jordans got us in a tight spot. Burgundy 5s, Palomino 1s, red cement 4s and the playoff 8s... 4 shoes $900+ in a 30 span is tough especially seeing that the blue 5s are releasing next to the red 12s right after

[@3dtraining633]

The red speckled Cement makes the entire shoe 🔥🔥. Very Clean look and leather just like midnight Navy. I'm glad they didn't make them like Fire red soft leather which creases to easily. Mines came last week.

[@mdaddy9474]

Dwight clutch with the joke in Dr office

[@BIGGS812]

I found that if I skip the second lace hole it actually relieves a lot of pressure from that pinky toe!!!

[@johnnyclinton6206]

I think it’s a clean shoe definitely a cop for me

[@ErrkNjerk]

These are like reverse Fire Red 4s. The red and black hits are flipped, everything else is the same. I think thats why this colorway looks so weird to me

[@HobbyDude77]

Definitley a shoe best in person. Wasn’t even planning on keeping these when I won them on the drop. The splatter adds a lot, I think without that I’d probably trade them for another pair in the collection. But for now they’re sticking with me.

[@SFPR10]

If you're not sure. Its a no. There are too many fire sneakers to pickup throughout time that we don't need to look twice at "not sure". The highlight of this video is the TMNT shirt. 🐢

[@robertharris6968]

Thank you for the review, I really like the shoe, the red highlights on the AJ 4 is what sold me , plus the AJ 4 silhouette is one of my favorite all time Sneakers 👟 .I plan on a Double up for this release. ✌🏾

[@stevencooper5970]

🔥 shoe. A must cop for me. Once again, a dope vid. Keep em coming.

[@johnnymentero3571]

I love what you do guys. Best in the business by far. I try to always watch your reviews before buying my Jordans. Much love and respect from Canada. ✌🏽 🇨🇦

[@stealers13th]

Got them on SNKRS the other day, they on the way rn. So excited

[@OldSchoolJules]

I have the midnight navy and love them. I might grab these IF I buy at retail. They aren’t worth resell in my opinion.

[@SuperK1320]

I love these. I didn’t think I would, but 4s are my favorite. I copped on the shock drop and plan to double up on the release. It’s an exact reverse of the Fire Red 4s. I had to have these since I don’t have the Fire Reds.

[@raphealtaylor4908]

4s are my favorite but I feel like it’s an alternate version of the fire red 4s. So I’ll pass on them. Love that ninja turtle tee

[@CT37BN]

Front eyelet to the toe box is quite stiff and has a very snug fit. It definitely has the most interesting design/look of the classic Jordan w/ the exposed air cushions.

[@chill6789]

That's clean The only thing I don't like is that flap where the laces go through constantly pulling on the laces, that flap is going to break off, then what

[@JohnC0356]

I have the fire red 4’s so I’m gonna pass on these , I think?

[@mrt1035]

These are no fire reds but I definitely like them enough to get a pair and rock them. I like the heel tab, gives it that different vibe than the 🔥red 4, which it should.

[@TheSonOfSomeMan45]

Great review as always 🔥

[@punkfloyd]

I think these are fine, I really like the navy's so I was glad to have got a W in the shock drop. I have the "red cement" 3s so this was a no brainer to cop for retail.

[@ahmadjames4980]

I would love for WearTesters to do a segment on the Nike Air Assault circa 1987 with the elephant-print.

[@marvin7533]

I recall seeing an interview where MJ said the AJ 12 was his favorite shoe.

[@TonyStark-pb4by]

I have no issue with the tab. That might change in hand but i have to actually get lucky enough to cop.

[@kerryturner4616]

I hit for these on the shock drop. Once I got them in hand and it was 😍😍😍. These are 🔥 and I’m not really a fan of 4s.

[@t23random]

I love the 4s. I think the red seems orangey, so when it’s a large heel tab, it’s too much perhaps.

[@Devon523]

yeah i definitely agree that back tab needs to be black. The problem is that the wing and the midsole and the back tab are all red at the back half of the shoe with no black to break it up. the front of the shoe has more black hits that break that red up a little bit and its just too much and doesnt look right on the back half. these are pass for me. im rockin the og fire reds.

[@tamtamm84]

I hit on shock drop didn’t think I was gonna keep ‘em but they are nicer in hand

[@Scott-cy6zv]

Chris are you able to do a video on how to reverse the yellowing on the caging on the sides you just mentioned?
