and i didn't want it simply because of hype purposes but i thought the shoe was actually
dope so before we get started with the review two shoes that i will be comparing against are
going to be the cactus jack air jordan fours and the white cement air jordan fours starting
with the box you have your classic air jordan 4 style box with a major twist your unc vives and i
am loving it because i know something like this is going to look super dope on the wall with all
the boxes stacked next to each other giving the wall just a little bit more character so as you
can see on the top you got a white top a baby blue jumpman and a black flight your classic
cement print all around the box and the size tag reading air jordan 4 retro university blue black
retail 200 bucks pulling the lid off you have your cement print paper and then you got the shoe oh
you got the shoe okay first impressions of this sneaker yes definitely well worth the money so in
normal fashion we're going to start on the bottom of the sneaker and work our way up talk about
styles cuts materials do a couple comparisons with a couple different shoes then we'll go over prices
my thoughts opinions voting all those different things so let's get started starting with the
outsole you have a very very beautiful air jordan 4 outsole with a nice touch of a baby blue hit
here on the jump man on the center of the foot and on the ball of the foot here at the front end
working our way up to the midsole this is where you have the same vibes as the white cement air
jordan 4 which i'll show you right here side by side in this photo as you can see they are
basically identical now going to the upper you have a pretty solid material i had a feeling
that it was going to be a little bit worse but this gives me similar vibes to the air jordan 5
raging bull i feel like those are kind of similar when it comes to materials and everything so i
think these could potentially fall in that similar category of the quality of material that we got on
this shoe if you have never seen or felt the new raging bull air jordan 5 the material isn't the
best but it's not the worst and people aren't mad at it some people like it some people don't
i think this color right here is dope does look a little bit faded on the red pair but that's a
whole other topic we can get into that in another video but again overall i am not mad at the shoe
now going to the arms and the eyelets and the back tab of the sneaker you still got those white
cement vibes and i'm loving it these come with the jumpman on the back not a nike air this is not an
og colorway so i can understand why it doesn't have the nike air would it look great with the
nike air yes it probably would but i'm not mad with the jumpman at all looking at the mesh in
the nets right here you have a baby blue vibe all on that as well going to the tongue and the laces
you got the baby blue vibes on there also now going to the jordan branding at the top of the
tongue this is something that has been slightly controversial for some people and i can understand
why simply because this tag just flaps out way too much as soon as you put the shoe on i'm sure
it's gonna be sticking out so i can understand why a lot of people are willing to cut that off
just to make the shoe look a little bit better on foot so for those that don't know jordan team gear
or something like a swing man jersey from way back in the day they used to have a very similar patch
on the bottom of the jerseys or as you would see it on the jordan retros or inside the boxes team
shoes different stuff like that since their con is something similar to a team shoe with
the unc so i understand the vibes behind it i get the creativity again i'm not mad at it but
maybe i would have preferred it to be somewhere else i don't know exactly where else it would have
went but maybe just not right there but imma still give you guys an a for effort now looking at the
shape and the mold of the tongue and simply the mold of the entire shoe is very similar to the og
style with a newer retro twist how they have been doing it trying to revert back to the old style
so you got a little bit puffier of a tongue with the flap with the overlay right here you got your
black mesh behind it with the jordan brand logoing upside down stitch a baby blue sockliner and all
black insole with a baby blue jumpman now i want to put these side by side next to the travis scott
fours just so you guys can see the differences when it comes to materials especially the color
of the materials and obviously color blocking is a little bit different as well so first things first
i want to point out this shoe right here retailed at 225 and this shoe retailed at two hundred
dollars so that's going to give you another 25 edge when it comes to premium materials additional
laces or hang tags or whatever it may be that might just take that shoe to another level so
when you're looking at the two shoes right here if i run my finger across the toe on the travis scott
you can see that suede that nubuck whatever you want to call it is very very thin and it looks
really really nice you can see the stroke of the finger now when i run it right here it's a little
bit nappier you can kind of see it but you have to look really close i'm not sure if it's going
to catch it on camera but you can definitely tell the difference between the two materials when you
sit them side by side so in my opinion yes i think the travis scott when it comes to materials and
quality is going to be a better shoe but at the same time the unc might be a better shoe to rock
because it might be easier to get dirty and clean up because when you get these things dirty bruh
they're low-key hard to clean so another thing besides from the material obviously you can see
there is a color difference between these two shoes some people like to compare these two
sneakers but again i think both of these sneakers are very dope for their own reasons and i would
love to have well i guess i do have both but you get what i'm saying i think it's good to
have both in your collection now if you guys want to see a full comprehensive breakdown between the
two sneakers and really diving deeper into the differences and details and everything like that
i can make a versus video for you guys let me know down below in the comment section okay now
it's time to talk prices opinions and all them different things so i posted a poll on instagram
to see what everybody thinks and i wanted to know simply is this shoe fire or is this shoe trash
if you haven't already make sure you follow me on ig so you can participate in the polls and see all
the results here in the videos 92 percent of the people chose fire and eight percent of the people
chose trash and i completely understand those results this shoe is dope bruh and as you can tell
i like the shoe now let me know what you think about the shoe down below in the comment section
so when it comes to numbers we have to talk about the unc air jordan 3 first because i feel
like these could potentially fall in that similar category this one may or may not be worth a little
bit more a little bit less but i think they could be relatively the same when it comes to time and
how far out and everything like that so the unc air jordan 3 came out and they were going for like
250 and personally i wasn't trying to spend 250 on the shoe and it came back to bite me because
now the shoes worth like 550 so you understand where that price is going they started to rise
people realized like the quality of that shoe was really really nice the colorway is extremely dope
and it's just a fire shoe and i think in that shoe same thing over time people start messing
them up and then they realize like bruh i need another pair next thing you know price starts to
rise i think these are gonna fall in that same category so i'm sure a lot of people felt the
same way when they thought about this version right here and that's why the price was too
high before they had came out people were selling the shoe for almost twelve hundred dollars eleven
hundred and some change bruh that's just way too much in my opinion and whoever bought those
i feel bad for you bro so time starts to go on and then the shoe goes down to around 500 bucks
and then the shoe actually releases to the public and now the price is starting to settle around 350
and that's kind of the current market you might be able to get it for under 300
in a little bit more time find a deal but i think that price is gonna slowly simmer simmer simmer
and then start to go back up over time just like the unc three did and then next thing you know
we're gonna have a five six hundred dollar pair of shoes and to think if you can't spend 1200 or
1500 or a thousand dollars on a travis scott air jordan 4 this is a good alternative for a lot of
people so to be able to get this for way lower i think a lot of people are definitely going to be
trying to get their hands on me so if you guys enjoyed this video and want to see comparison
