Air Jordan 4 Black Cat 2019

Is it just me or are 4's very uncomfortable wearing them for the first 2 or 3 times? There's a spot right after the bottom eyelets that hurts so bad until they're broken in for me.
 
I could be speaking for just myself but I think why the more padded tongue is being pretty well received is because it was like that on the 1999 retros. While I haven’t seen originals since 1989, my memory is that the tongues were padded thicker as well. Seems almost exactly the same amount of padding to me.
My favorite part of these black cats and hopefully every retro 4 going forward is that top down view. Very much improved IMO.
I’m not too familiar with the 99’s but was wondering if that was the case with the thicker tongue. Got my pair in the mail today. They’re pretty clean and that all black box was a nice change from the norm. All in all I’m glad I got em’. Can’t wait to see how they fit compared to my other J4’s.

So did these end up being US exclusive?
That’s what it seems like after all. But if my memory serves correct, some site like Sneakernews (don’t really remember) was listing JD Sports as one of where to get locations tho. So, It’s possible that they were out in UK also.
 
Hi guys, first post in here.

Help me with this pair. I will get'em of a website, so I gotta know if they run true to size?

Ive seen people say they do, some people say go down half a size or go up. So I'm not really sure what size to get yet.

noticed that too. I usually buy half size up, but they only had 11.5. Not bad, but yes that’s exactly where it hurts.
