It's a well-executed retro of a legendary shoe. The quality is there, the look is timeless. It's not trying to be something it's not – it's a faithful recreation of a classic. I'm really happy with this pickup. Compared to my other Jordans, like the 1s or 3s, the AJ4 'Military Blue' has a more structured, technical look. The support is different. It's not as minimal as a 1, but not as plush as a 3. It occupies its own unique space in the Jordan series lineup, and this colorway is arguably one of its best executions. Major pros? The history and the colorway are undeniable. At around $210 USD, it's the standard retro price. The materials are decent, and the design is just iconic. It's a shoe that every sneakerhead should at least consider for their collection, purely for its significance in the Jordan lineage. Comparing it to other 4s? The 'Military Blue' sits right there with the 'Fire Red' and 'Black Cat' as an essential OG colorway. The build feels consistent with recent retro quality. Versus a Jordan 1? It's a different beast - more substantial, more tech-focused for its time. This is a cornerstone of the Jordan series, no doubt.
