The Air Jordan 4 Military Black executes a simple idea perfectly. It's a clean, wearable retro that honors the original 'Military Blue' in a more modern, monochromatic way. It's not the most exciting release, but it's one you'll reach for constantly. Here's my real take: I love how these look on camera. The contrast is perfect for photos. Comfort-wise, they're good, not amazing. They break in nicely. Compared to my other Jordan 4s, the Military Black is probably the easiest to style. Major pro: timeless color blocking. Possible con: the leather quality, while decent, isn't premium. It's a mass-produced GR. Still, a very solid pick-up. Who is this for? Honestly, almost any sneaker fan. It's a perfect first Jordan 4 because the colorway is so neutral. It's for the person who wants a classic, wearable sneaker that goes with everything. If you missed out on other white-based AJ4s, the Military Black is your answer. For $210 USD, you're getting a piece of Jordan Brand history you can actually wear daily. Now, potential cons... The toe box can be a bit stiff initially – some break-in is required. Also, at $210 USD, it's an investment. If you're new to Jordans and want maximum comfort, maybe start elsewhere. The Air Jordan 4 silhouette isn't for everyone; it's a chunky shoe. And the white midsole? You know it's gonna get dirty. Just things to keep in mind.
