Also, if you prefer minimalist, low-profile sneakers, the bulk of the "AJ4" might not be for you. It's a specific look and feel. For performance basketball? Obviously, look at the modern Jordans, not this Retro. Final verdict? For me, it's a yes. The Air Jordan Retro 4 'Military Blue' is a piece of history. The comfort is good for what it is, and the style is unbeatable. It's a shoe I'll wear for years. Is it worth the $210? If this colorway means something to you, absolutely. If you're just looking for a comfy white shoe, there are cheaper options. But as a sneaker? Iconic. I'm really happy to have these in the collection. Who should get these? Sneakerheads who appreciate iconic designs & don't mind a break-in period. It's perfect for collectors & casual style enthusiasts. Who should avoid? People seeking ultimate comfort or wide-footers who hate tight fits. Also, if you're rough on your shoes, the delicate materials on many 4s might stress you out. Know what you're buying into. Unboxing this 'Fire Red' "Air Jordan Retro 4" was a nostalgia trip. The quality checks out — no glue stains I can see! On foot, the toe box creases... that's just part of the game with this model. It's a "beautiful" shoe, but it's not "perfect." You buy it for the history and the look, not for cutting-edge tech. At $210 USD, you're buying a piece of culture. I'm cool with that.
