Stop calling Jordans reimagined. They are trash. The only reimagined series that should exist is Undercovers cancelled retros of the first 6 Jordans. They were called reimagined as while they have the same silhouette, their cushioning system will be future proofed. For example, Jun Takahashi wanted 4s to have a double zoom strobel on top of one another. This tooling costed Nike $75 per shoe because it was so advanced and completely new setup. Nike cancelled it because it was costly yet sell complete crap for ridiculous prices
One of the most delightful, enlightening, moderate, and lastly humble sneaker reviewers on RU-vid. Appreciate these type of videos because like he said, we don’t get these too much. I’m definitely going to get this shoe this year and I’m giving it SOTY. When I get my money right first like Jeezy and Ye said it’ll be in my closet. What are going to clean those with? Crep? Jason Markk? Reshoevn8r?
Great vid Foamer & Buckets , always great to see these follow up vids after wearing a sneaker for a while. Def SotY for '23 for me these SB x AJ4s. Sadly was only able to cop in my younger bros' size who is nearly a full size smaller than mine. But was very impressed in hand. My only concern is the softer plastic or rubber they opted for in certain i do wonder about durability with that long term. Especially if wearing a lot and i believe those lace crowns are also the softer plastic , lacing up and pulling do worry about that area over time. But still just a really well done sneaker. Also Foamer Nike has announced a handful of this year's AJ4s will be using the shape and some of the tweaks and added comfort / padding of the SB x AJ4s ; maybe not in every single way but closer to the SB x AJ4 in those respects. Believe the Reimagined Breds , Military Blues , Fear 4s and believe White Thunders will be using more the SB x AJ4 template. And with the SB x AJ4s i do hope hope it becomes an ongoing collab and we can get more colorways in this series. Personally think thats the only improvement can be made are better SB x AJ4 colorways.
SB4 my favorite yet. I doubled up and glad I did. Kinda wish I had a 3rd or 4th as an investment. Glad they decided to make the breds and military blues like the SB. But the pine green SB4 is legit my favorite 4 all time, which is crazy cause 4s are my favorite by far and I’ve been around them since 1989 as a 10 year old kid
pine greens are goated… so glad i copped a pair in my size… size 14. that size didn’t even release in the SNKRS app… only a skate shop release size. got them for a steal compared to now. my fav sneaker in collection they look fire with aging
These were sneaker of the year. They are super comfortable. But I can’t abuse mine like this because I paid $400 which is ridiculous for a size 6. I treat them with more tenderness and care than most of my sneakers. I think these are most worn this year tho. I give my kicks usually 3 times max a year.. these made it to 6 times.
Good thing especially with so many good sneaker cleaning products now you can really clean them up pretty easily ; especially predominately regular leather pairs. Suede , nubuck more than a bit trickier , even patent not the easiest either but most regular leather can clean them up quite well.
My fav sneaker of all time 4 sure!! The PSG Jordan 4s are also similar with regard to the soft heel tab and comfy to wear but these are definitely the best!!
love this shoe but the fact that it's going for damn near $700.00 now is making it impossible for me to cop. The fact that $600 - $700 is considered "nothing too crazy" is ridiculous
Have yet to pull the trigger on these but they are so clean, definitely one of the top shoes of the year last year. Keep up the great work former and buckets.
These are absolutely fire. Wore my pair for the first time last month. Like slipping into a warm Apple Pie. Grabbed a Uncivilized DMX shirt to rock with them next time.
These are just really freaking comfortable, glad we’re getting this og shape/silhouette with future releases. You guys should do this with the re-imagined bred 4’s
tbh they look barely worn and the outsole kinda tells that u could have crease protectors in but. Just seems they really weren't beat and casually worn here and there. So the slight wear or slight creasing is to be expected and really doesn't show the quality of the shoe. Which doesn't really show any comparison in durability to the original 4s.
All my Jordan 4s get more comfortable after you break them in. They are all really rigid at first. I have no idea how anyone would ball in them though. They are almost like boots.
They making all Jordan 4's starting with reimagined bred more comfy now. I'm stocked for the Fear Pack 4's. Can't wait to get those at the end of the year.
Glad I got mines when I did, they have definitely shot up in price. But they are worth copping if it was only one 4 you wanted in ya collection. I own personally about 15 different 4s and this one is the most comfortable by far and right behind that is the psg/blkcat 4s imo
The 3’s or 5’s might be the most likely to happen, but the 8’s and 9’s getting this treatment would be interesting with the sb logos swapped out on say the chenille tongue of the 8 or back tab on the 9 plus those pairs are heavy so making them lighter and more comfortable is a win.
One of the nicest sneakers I’ve ever seen, subtle n upscale, different while staying the same. I’m 42 n the 4s always looked cool but the SB4 took it elsewhere. I want another pair too cuz I’m worried we might not get another. Seems like we only get 1 SB per Jordan shiloutte cuz there has not been another AJ1 SB.
The value is retail. I dislike the resale market mostly. I got these on release day actually. It's extremely rare that I pay resale values. I also dont resale as i buy for keepw. Great shoe, though, worth their initial price and perhaps a bit more! Easy to keep clean, really. It's like doing oil changes. Maintain. There are certain levels of wear that can not be reversed. That's the nature of wear items.
I want these sooo bad, only thing holding me back is the bulky-ness of them. I’m a skinny girl with skinny legs, idk if these will look good on me. I LOVE NIKE SB, never owned a Jordan 4 before. Would you still recommend?
FIRST DAY I WORE MINE I WAS AT A Mexican food restaurant and the waiter spilled a RED MARGARITA on my left shoe. I was pissed took a while but fit and still loook and feel great
How does the suede hold up in the rain? I'm travelling to Seattle for a week next weekend where it will probably be cold and wet. Would love to rock these but don't want to ruin them. Have to say, your pair still look fresh.
I'm glad these held up I want em bad af.... wish they also did a bred sb4 and a reverse motorsport sb4 and a blk n green sb4 as well.... dope vid #Kixoholix413Salute
Ended up getting em and loved em. I had a friend make me an offer I couldn’t refuse when he saw them on foot so unfortunately I no longer have them. Probably gonna be another sneaker “lost one”
Actually the Bred Reimagined and Military Blue and the Fears that come out this year are all supposed to use this silhouette and have the softer more flexible rubber. People who have the Bred already say they fit pretty much the same.
