The "Air Jordan 4 Retro" isn't the most comfortable shoe in your collection, but it’s a essential piece of sneaker history. The craftsmanship on this ‘Bred’ version is solid – no major glue stains or flaws on my pair. If you value design legacy and a sturdy build, yes, it’s worth it. If you only care about cloud-like comfort, maybe look elsewhere. Is it worth the price? For a OG colorway like 'Military Blue' at $210 USD, I'd say yes—if you love the model. The craftsmanship is generally on point. But for some of the more recent, non-OG color drops... the value gets debatable. You're paying for the silhouette's hype. My advice? Only cop the Air Jordan Retro 4 colorways you're truly passionate about. On foot, the "Jordan 4 Retro" just has a certain presence. The way the mesh panels and plastic wings catch the light on camera is fantastic. This 'Fire Red' version, in particular, pops. Compared to a "Jordan 1"? It's a bulkier, more athletic-looking profile (which I personally love). It makes a statement without being too flashy. Unboxing this 'Military Blue' "Air Jordan Retro 4" was a nostalgia trip! The materials feel good, the nubuck is nice. On-foot, the fit is snug – I'd say maybe go half a size up if you have wider feet, just a tip. The look on camera is phenomenal; those mesh panels and plastic wings add so much texture. Versus a Retro 3, the 4 feels more technical. Love the ankle collar design, but break-in time is real. Worth the $210? For this classic, 100% yes. Not for those who hate breaking shoes in, though.
