The nubuck is soft and should age nicely. The color blocking is iconic and super easy to style. Durability on AJ4s is generally good, so these should last. It's a classic sneaker that you can wear for years without it looking dated. That's a huge plus in my book. Now, a potential con? The break-in period. Like most AJ4s, the heel collar can be a bit stiff at first and might rub. Also, if you’re used to modern, plush cushioning, the Air Sole unit here will feel basic. It’s not a performance shoe; it’s a lifestyle icon. Comparing it to other Jordans... If you have a 'Fire Red' or 'Military Blue' 4, this "Air Jordan 4 Midnight Navy" sits in that same timeless, wearable category. Versus a Jordan 1 or 3, the 4 is bulkier and has a more technical, 90s basketball look. The comfort level is different, too—3s are often softer, while 4s are more structured. This colorway makes the 4's design feel a bit more refined, though. On foot now, and the fit is true to size for me. The "Air Jordan 4 Midnight Navy" feels like a typical 4 – comfortable, but not super plush. The lockdown is good, especially with those plastic wing eyelets. It's not a heavy shoe, but you definitely feel the structure. A solid, reliable feel for all-day wear.
