It's bulkier, more of a statement. Versus an AJ3, the toe box is roomier. For $210 USD, you're paying for the icon status. It's not the most tech-advanced shoe, but it's a piece of history you can wear. On foot now, and the comfort is... decent. It's a retro basketball shoe, so don't expect modern, plush cushioning. The Air unit in the heel is there, but it's firm. The lockdown is good, though—my foot feels secure. For a casual wear, it's perfectly fine. The "Jordan 4 Retro" just has that undeniable style that makes up for a lot. In summary, the "Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro" gets a thumbs up from me. The 'Military Blue' is a clean colorway. You get iconic style, good quality, and that Jordan series prestige. Just know the fit can be snug and the ride is firm. If you want a classic sneaker that always looks good, this is it. Hope this honest review helps you decide! Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Who might want to skip these? If you have "really" wide feet, the midfoot might feel restrictive. Also, if your primary concern is all-day, walk-for-miles comfort, there are better (and often cheaper) options out there. And if you're not into the chunky, retro basketball look, this obviously isn't your shoe. It has a very specific vibe.
