The design is bold and iconic. For around $210 USD, you're getting a legendary sneaker that never goes out of fashion. The durability on these is usually good, too—the materials can take a beating. As a piece of the "Jordan" lineage, the Retro 4 is a must-have for any serious collection, period. On foot, the design "really" pops. The mesh panels and plastic wing eyelets add so much texture. Compared to a sleeker Jordan 3 or a bulkier 5, the Retro 4 has this perfect, aggressive balance. It works with "so many" fits—from joggers to denim. This 'Military Blue' version? A clean, versatile summer sneaker for sure. Major pro: its style versatility. In the end, you're buying the story and the style. Trying on this "Air Jordan Retro 4" reminds you why these designs are still relevant decades later. It's not perfect by modern metrics, but its impact is huge. If you connect with that, you'll love having it in your collection. If not, you might not get the hype. And that's okay! That's my honest take. Final verdict? For me, as a fan, it's a yes. The "Air Jordan Retro 4" is a legend. The look, the history, the way it completes a fit—it's just special. I can overlook the firm ride for that. At this price point in the "Jordan" Retro world, it's standard. It's not an every-day comfort beast, but it's an essential silhouette for any rotation.
