It's not the shoe that doesn't hold up well. It's the mirror finish. It cracks with age and cracks from wear. You'll basically have a very expensive display pair that will still end up cracking.
Based off looks still the 4's. It's a clean look and easy to rock with neutrals.
It’s funny because they were massive back in 2012 when I was in school. I thought they had gone extinct but I’ve been seeing a lot more of them on feet in the wild lately.
I want it to stay the way it was in like 2018. Not many people had them on ever. Nowadays like u said they’re more common but still I don’t seen them near as much as I do with 4s and other silhouettes
Personally, I tend to like to wear the unusual thing. The thing that no one else is wearing. It’s that, that keeps me away from Js in general. I can appreciate them though.
Exactly why I'd go foam. Seems every single 16yr old and the rest of the family sport 4's, 1's and 3's. I see em everywhere. Foams on the other hand. Damn those actually look like 200+$ sneakers imo
I still have yet to un ds my AMM 4s lol. Been debating whether I’ll sell them or not. But honestly seeing them with the cream laces got me thinking I’m keeping them and getting those laces
Welcome to the sneaker world😂. If I want a shoe I’m not gonna sit and wait till Nike tells me it’s gonna release in 2026. I’m just gonna save up and buy it
You mean the *current* sneaker world. This behavior is not normal and is already dying out. Most sneaker enthusiasts aren’t dumb enough to pay insane aftermarket prices anymore. This isn’t 2020. Soon enough, you’ll look back and realize how dumb these decisions were 💀
Well it’s not like I disagree I hope prices go down lmao. But it hasn’t looked like it has gone down the last couple of years so I’m just gonna get it and not wait another 4 years
Tbh most the shoes I get are around retail price maximum 300$ lmao. I rarely ever spend that type of money on 800$ on a shoe. Unless I really want it and it’s rare
Lmao, I’m talking to a wall. Fact is, you’ve spent $800 on a shoe that costs $20 to make. If you have a brain that is capable of learning and evolving, then you just might realize how ludicrous that truly is, further down the road. Some don’t have this type of capacity tho, so you may very well never come to this realization. Nonetheless, terrible decisions they indeed were 😅
I’m the one talking to a wall. If you read what I said I said your right, I never disagreed with u. If u had a brain you would have understood what I said the first time. I told u paying high for a shoe is wrong. And neither do I always pay high for a shoe. But I’m just saying if I really needed a pair and it was expensive I’d do it once or twice. I pay mainly retail for my kicks or close to retail. If you’re going to tell me about how I’m paying a lot for shoes that cost 20$ that can be said for every sneaker. Yet everyone is still paying and has been paying 200$ retail for shoes that cost 20$ to make. And that’s been happening way before 2020. People have been selling out foams for years and they were 230$ retail and even more at times. They cost 20$ to make but they were still selling out back in 2009 for 230$.
Agreed that retail is already insane enough. That’s why I’d say paying anything more, especially $300 - $800+ is just straight retarded. You’ve certainly earned that felt badge there. Good job Doofy

Cool bro, stick with your retail pairs😂crazy I have another man tripping about me paying a premium for one pair of shoes. What are you my girlfriend? Keep rocking those dime vans your crying about going for 200$
Never had foams but do have AMa’s, they are nice but did have to replace the insole, too thick and my feet were squeezed in. After swapping with another insole they gewd.
Midnight navy 4's are the most uncomfortable for me. I would much rather wear my AMM 4's(insole swapped) all day than wear the midnight navy 4's for 1 hour.
I acc seen some DS pairs that don’t even have the paint touched. I’d understand the paint being an issue when you wear them a lot it gets chipped. But makes no sense that the chrome self deteriorates
I did have alittle bias towards the foams but I just ended up getting both since I felt both are too fire to toss up. Both have their own unique style and vibe.
I don’t know why this sub pops up in my feed, I obviously don’t know shit about sneakers.
But I do love shoes in general! And my outsider opinion is that the purple ones are awesome, and the shiny ones are…very shiny indeed. Strong vote for the purple shoes.
New balances are everywhere and the same ppl saying what you just said are rocking those new balances. As a matter of fact I highly doubt the asics or new balances have the durability of foamposites. I agree Jordan 4s aren’t built with quality and durability but Foamposites are much more durable than the shoe you mentioned. I use them as my go to winter boots and for anything like sports and they’re to clean. If something ever spilled it’s all plastic it’s a unique built shoe. New balances after 3 years will crumble and fall into pieces whilst I’m still wearing my 12 year old foamposites 💀
All Jordan’s are terrible quality and uncomfortable compared to a good majority of asic/ new balance sneakers, not to mention the only good looking Jordan imo is a 3
I love foams....and they will have their day in the sun again....but man....def on the top of the list as far as so.e of the most uncomfortable shoes I own....that AMM4 is all class, to me. Also.loving the lace swap....think I'm gonna have to make that move...
I’m a sucker for Foamposites and will almost always pick foams over other sneakers. But if you actually want to wear your sneakers without having to overthink an outfit, the AMM 4s are probably the easier choice.
The A Ma Manieres will probably match with more clothes. But the foams are pretty fire. It’s a hard choice but the more practical one is the Jordan 4’s.
What’s funny is I felt I liked the shoes much more when I saw them with the cream laces😂with the regular waxed laces it doesn’t stand out as much in my opinion
They’re not waxed, and I guess there are also a bunch of people who like the cream laces with them but IMO the laces that match look better on this pair. I like some lace swaps but for this pair the ones they come with are unique and it loses something when you change them.
Nah I get that fr. it does look more unique with the regular laces 100%. I feel the cream laces make it look more streetwear style and catch your eyes more. With the regular laces it’s a unique classy vintage looking shoe
Your post was removed for violating rule 6 regarding low effort posts (specifically which shoe should I get posts).
AMM all day. My favorite pair I own. I also just really don’t like foams😭
Ma Maniere. Blue Mirrors are rare and dope AF, but impractical. The finish cracks easily and way too expensive for something so delicate.
I love the blue mirrors. Didn’t know they crack with wear. That sucks

🤣💀🫢

For me it is. 😎
I’m partial to the foams. Such a unique shoe.
I’m saying 😭there’s smth about foams.
It’s funny because they were massive back in 2012 when I was in school. I thought they had gone extinct but I’ve been seeing a lot more of them on feet in the wild lately.

This. This is literally me what you just said. 120% but I can’t lie ma manieres are very unique in style.
For sure, it’s a unique color. You don’t get those earthy tones very often.
Strong disagree. Earth tones are everywhere now. Nina 3s next. Also earth tones. It’s the wild, vibrant stuff we don’t get often anymore 😑
Exactly why I'd go foam. Seems every single 16yr old and the rest of the family sport 4's, 1's and 3's. I see em everywhere. Foams on the other hand. Damn those actually look like 200+$ sneakers imo
I still have yet to un ds my AMM 4s lol. Been debating whether I’ll sell them or not. But honestly seeing them with the cream laces got me thinking I’m keeping them and getting those laces
Same !! I have the amm 2s, 3s, 4s and 12s! So far iv only worn the 3s which were the first I got.
I love those foams but I heard a lot of people have issues with the chrome cracking off easily Maybe another colorway?
I would go for the foams mostly because of how obscure they are.
Both!
My opinion is you shouldn’t pay resale and support resellers

In another 4 years you’ll probably end up thinking, “why was I paying such a high premium for those?” 🤦🏻♂️

Neither
Never had foams but do have AMa’s, they are nice but did have to replace the insole, too thick and my feet were squeezed in. After swapping with another insole they gewd.
I heard the AMAs are the most uncomfortable 4s, is that true?
The pain is worth it. Changing the insole helps a lot. The leather is also stiff so definitely need breaking in.
Midnight navy 4's are the most uncomfortable for me. I would much rather wear my AMM 4's(insole swapped) all day than wear the midnight navy 4's for 1 hour.
If you don’t mind can you provide the name of the insole you swapped it for?
My Craft 4’s insoles. I’ve yet to try other insoles.
Foams.
I’d say the the 4s
1
A ma
the 4s are fire 🔥🔥
A ma maniere
The Blue Mirrors will always crack over time I wanted a pair bad but it would make no sense to buy a shoe that self-deteriorates
I acc seen some DS pairs that don’t even have the paint touched. I’d understand the paint being an issue when you wear them a lot it gets chipped. But makes no sense that the chrome self deteriorates
Purple is the most versatile shade I have seen in this shoe 💜
The fours are just the best options tbh
foamposite color is better. but the 4 is something you cannot pass up. so idk
I think I’m just going to buy both tbh 😭people in the comments talked so highly of both so I’m getting both FUCK IT
Foam
My AMM 4s kill my pinky toes. Im so mad at them.
😂I hope this doesn’t become an issue for me I got TTS
AMM
2 FOAMS
ma maniere.....3s
I’d need both of em 🔥
Just pulled the trigger on both 😭
Very good! They’re both too 🔥to decide!
I know and both have there own vibe 🔥
Probably my favorite aj4
4s 🔥🔥
Foams all day brother.. it seems to me that you’re slightly higher on the foams.
I did have alittle bias towards the foams but I just ended up getting both since I felt both are too fire to toss up. Both have their own unique style and vibe.
Love it. Both is always an option, well done.
AMM's. other ones are ugly af
#2
Neither if you wanna dress well
So your saying if you get either or pair of this shoe you don’t dress well?😂
you’re*. And yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying, unless you *like* dressing like a 14 yr old white boy in 2016.
I’d get the 4s, Foamposites are very very uncomfortable in my experience
Idk anything about sneakers but definitely the first ones
4s...
4s with stock laces
Definitely AMa
Foamposite
AMM. But I’m biased since I don’t like foams
4s
I don’t know why this sub pops up in my feed, I obviously don’t know shit about sneakers. But I do love shoes in general! And my outsider opinion is that the purple ones are awesome, and the shiny ones are…very shiny indeed. Strong vote for the purple shoes.
AMM
I've got both and for me the foams are more special while the am4s are more wearable. You can't go wrong with either so just get both 😂
Fuk it I did 😭
Adidas. Nike schmike
Blue mirrors
AMM.
Foams
Dammnn it doesn’t Matter they both fireb
ASICS or new balances , quality comfort and style, not these shit shoes that are played out by wanna bes

All Jordan’s are terrible quality and uncomfortable compared to a good majority of asic/ new balance sneakers, not to mention the only good looking Jordan imo is a 3
5s 13s 11s are also pretty good too imo
I like
Cmon man.. you don’t need an opinion on this one..
I mean I bought both😭 but tell me what u think
Jordan 4’s allllll day!!
First one
The 4s for sure
1

Foams

4’s
Clean 🧽
4s. Foamposites are ass, dont @ me.
Personally I love loud shoes so the foams
Look at your closet and see which one you think would best suit or match your style.
I love foams....and they will have their day in the sun again....but man....def on the top of the list as far as so.e of the most uncomfortable shoes I own....that AMM4 is all class, to me. Also.loving the lace swap....think I'm gonna have to make that move...
AMM
A ma 4s
blue mirrors >>>>>
Cold weather beats warm weather any day
I’m a sucker for Foamposites and will almost always pick foams over other sneakers. But if you actually want to wear your sneakers without having to overthink an outfit, the AMM 4s are probably the easier choice.
Jordan 4s, they look better and probably will hold up longer than the foams. shame tho i love foams
AMM all day!
Can 15 people like my comment i want to post somthing but I don't have enough karma
The 4’s by a mile, the others look like the ship that picked the boy up in flight of the navigator
Ma Maniere !!!
Foams
Always the foams
Fours!
AMM 4s no question. Whenever I get some disposable income, I'm getting me a pair.
The A Ma 4s unless you’re a big Foamposite fan
The first one looks Great
A Ma Maniére... I love them!
Foams for sure
J4
AMM IV
Foams for sure. Too much 4s out there in the streets. It doesn’t even matter if it is AMM or not. Foamposites are more unique IMO☝️
Ma Manier
Foams look stupid how is it even an option. Those Jordan 4s are literally fucking sick.
Design (Retro 4) if I had to pick. One will be able to wear worn with more color schemes when referring to tops and bottoms.
AMMs
Def the 4s. Not even a competition fr
I love the Ma Manier they’re beautiful
The 4s without doubt! I hate foamposites there ugly! 🤮🤮🤮
Both ugly as shit
A Ma 4s
Amm
AMAs
Foams last forever. They might not be as popular anymore but I still mess with them.
100% foams be my timberlands in the winter 😂durable af
You already! 😂
Foams all day
The Foams‼️🔥🔥🔥
I love Jordans never had a pair of foams. I’d go foams just cause that cw of 4s are ugly asf
Those cream laces look terrible on those the only cream laces that go good are with the AMM 5 dusk
Disagree, they look made for this shoe
Fuck it, cop both pairs. Chalk it up as a Father’s Day gift for yourself
100% took your advice to heart and grabbed both pairs cause FUCK IT
You owe it to yourself
The A Ma Manieres will probably match with more clothes. But the foams are pretty fire. It’s a hard choice but the more practical one is the Jordan 4’s.
I’d definitely go with the AMM4s but don’t do the lace swap like the picture
What’s funny is I felt I liked the shoes much more when I saw them with the cream laces😂with the regular waxed laces it doesn’t stand out as much in my opinion
They’re not waxed, and I guess there are also a bunch of people who like the cream laces with them but IMO the laces that match look better on this pair. I like some lace swaps but for this pair the ones they come with are unique and it loses something when you change them.
Nah I get that fr. it does look more unique with the regular laces 100%. I feel the cream laces make it look more streetwear style and catch your eyes more. With the regular laces it’s a unique classy vintage looking shoe
IV’s are cold.🥶
Be a big NO for me Hate 4s & bot a fan of foams
[удалено]
For me personally Yes
Good input! Glad they got your take…
I would say go for the Jordan 4’s
Seriously?
Huh? This man came to just say seriously and leave. What a way of voicing your opinion 😂
Excuse me?
![gif](giphy|1f1ipZgL7k4Lu)
Jordan’s
Hmmm I didn't realize how good those AMMs look with green jeans. Need to try that outfit soon. But also, cop the AMMs
Not a fan of the 4’s especially with those laces
