If you crave bold, statement-making colorways in your Jordan series collection, this might be too safe for you. Also, if you're on a tight budget, the $210 USD price tag for a retro is always a consideration. On feet, the 'Military Black' colorway really pops. The contrast between the white, black, and that subtle grey on the eyelets and heel tab is perfect. It's not loud, but it has serious presence. I can already tell these will go with almost anything in my wardrobe. The shape on this retro is pretty good—nice and chunky, just how the Jordan 4 should look. My final take? The Air Jordan 4 'Military Black' is a must-have for me. It's executed well, it's incredibly wearable, and it fills a specific "go-to" slot in any rotation. Is it the most exciting release? No. But it might be one of the most useful. For the price, you get a durable, iconic sneaker that works year-round. I give it a strong recommendation for most people. Let’s talk about the audience for this shoe. The Air Jordan 4 'Military Black' is perfect for sneakerheads who want a wearable, classic colorway that won’t date. It’s also great for newcomers to the Jordan series. However, if you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, this might not be for you. There are more comfortable modern sneakers at this $210 USD price point. But for style? It’s a home run.
