The padded tongue and collar are signature, offering good ankle feel. On camera, that white/red/black combo is always a winner. A key advantage? Versatility – these go with almost anything. A downside? The plastic mesh on the side can crease noticeably. At around $200, it's a staple. I'd say these are perfect for someone building a core sneaker rotation. Not for those super worried about creasing. On foot, the silhouette is the star. The way the midsole wraps up? So good. But I have to be real: ventilation is not this shoe's strength. Your feet will get warm in the summer. The Air Jordan Retro 4 is a fall/winter sneaker for me. It’s perfect with jeans or joggers. If you live in a hot climate & want a breezy shoe, this isn't it. For style points in cooler weather? 10/10. Let's talk pros & cons. Pro: The Air Jordan Retro 4 has legendary status & unmatched style. The cement print details? Timeless. Con: The outsole isn't the most flexible, so if you're planning on walking miles in them, know that. It's a lifestyle sneaker first. For me, the classic look outweighs the minor comfort quirks. It's a must-have for any serious Jordan collector, period. Alright, let's get into this. 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.
