You cant downgrade iphones to older versions if the phone has been updated. With iPhone 4 and 4s it is doable but only if you have saved the SHSH blobs which are basically authorization keys that allow you to restore a certain iOS version that you either have or had previously.

I don’t agree with the first answer. Apple reopened iOS 6.1.3 for iPhone 4s, you can downgrade to iOS 6.1.3. But if your iPhone 4s is 8GB 2015, you can not restore to iOS 6.1.3, cause the default factory iOS version of this iPhone 4s is iOS 7.1.2.
