Also, if you prioritize ultra-soft, flexible comfort above all else, this retro might feel too rigid. It's a lifestyle sneaker first. The price, around $210, is also a commitment for a shoe with older tech. Who should maybe skip it? If you need all-day, walk-all-over-comfort, look at modern performance models. If you're rough on your shoes, the light colors might stress you out. And if you're new to Jordans and want the plushest feel, maybe try a Jordan 1 Zoom CMFT first. This is for the purists, honestly. In summary: The "Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro" 'Military Blue' gets a thumbs up from me. It delivers on iconic style and decent quality for the price. Manage your comfort expectations, wear taller socks, and you've got a legendary sneaker. Would I recommend it? Yes, especially for fans of the silhouette. Comparing it to other "Jordans"? The "4 Retro" sits between the bulky 5 and the slimmer 3. It's a perfect middle-ground silhouette. It's not as comfortable as a newer "Jordan" model with Zoom, but it has way more heritage and style points, in my opinion.
