At this price point, you know what you're getting: a legend. It's not a performance shoe; it's a lifestyle icon. If you've always wanted a Jordan 4 Retro, this 'Military Blue' is one of the best to start with. Just manage your expectations on comfort and break it in slowly. Would I recommend it? Absolutely, especially for sneakerheads building a foundation of classics. Who should skip it? If all-day comfort is your #1 priority, maybe pass. Also, if you have a really wide foot, the fit can be snug. And if you're new to sneakers and unsure about the chunky look, try a Jordan 1 first. The "Air Jordan 4 Retro" has a specific vibe that isn't for every single person. On foot, the design really shines. The mesh panels and those plastic wing eyelets add great texture. In natural light, the 'Military Blue' accents against the white are "so" fresh. They look great with jeans or shorts. The Nike Air branding on the back is a nice retro touch. This colorway is versatile and just has that cool, vintage vibe going for it. On foot now, and I gotta say, the fit is true to size for me. The lockdown from those plastic wing eyelets is actually really good! The cushioning? It's that familiar Air unit in the heel—you get a bit of that bounce, but let's be real, it's not ultra-plush like some modern sneakers. It's a firm, supportive ride. The weight is noticeable but not heavy, just... substantial. You know you're wearing a classic Jordan.
