This is a lifestyle retro. Also, at $210, it's an investment. If you're not into the classic silhouette or this specific 'Military Blue' color story, maybe wait for a different release. On foot, the design really pops. The 'Military Blue' accents against the white and grey work so well. The mesh panels and those plastic wing eyelets give it that unique "Air Jordan 4" texture. In natural light, the materials look great on camera. It's a shoe that has a strong presence without being too loud. A really versatile colorway for the collection. My final verdict? I'm really liking this "Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro". It lives up to the hype for me. The design is flawless, and it's a piece of history you can wear. Is it the comfiest shoe in my rotation? No. But would I recommend it? Absolutely. For the right person, it's 100% worth it. Just go in with the right expectations on the feel. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Air Jordan 4" sits higher and is more structured than a Jordan 1. It's less streamlined than an 11, but has more character than some later models. Within the "Jordan 4 Retro" line, this 'Military Blue' is one of the essential OG colorways, no question.
