Just unboxed the Air Jordan Retro 4 in this new 'Military Blue' colorway, and wow – the shape is "so" on point! The quality feels solid; the nubuck is nice and soft. Putting them on? The fit is true to size with a secure, classic lockdown. Honestly, the comfort is decent – you get that visible Air unit – but it's a firmer ride compared to modern shoes. For $210? It's a must for collectors who love the OG looks, but maybe not for all-day comfort seekers. Comparing it to other Jordans? The AJ4 sits "right" between the AJ3 and AJ5 for me. More structured than a 3, less bulky than a 5. The toebox on the Air Jordan Retro 4 is roomier than an AJ1, which is a plus for wider feet. It's a unique piece in the Jordan series lineage, no doubt. This 'Military Blue' colorway is a straight-up classic, and at $200 USD, it's in that standard retro price range. Who should maybe SKIP it? Performance basketball players – please get a modern shoe. Also, if you need all-day, walk-all-over comfort? This isn't your top pick. There are better (softer) options. For $210 USD, prioritize what "you" want: iconic style or modern comfort? That's the real question. Okay, so here are the 'University Blue' Air Jordan 4s on foot. The color is vibrant – even better in natural light! Comfort-wise, it's that familiar Retro Jordan feel: supportive but firm. The plastic wing eyelets provide a great wrap. Compared to a newer model like a Jordan 38? It's night and day in tech. Pro: one of the best-looking retros ever, no debate. Con: the midsole paint can chip. I'd say cop these for the collection and casual wear, but for serious ball, go with a modern performance model.
