This 'Military Blue' Jordan 4 just pops. The contrast with the black accents and grey mesh? "Chef's kiss". It photographs incredibly well. Compared to some bulkier recent Jordans, the 4 has a sleeker profile that works with so many fits. It's a timeless design, no doubt. Who should maybe skip it? If pure, max comfort is your #1 priority, look elsewhere. Also, if you need a performance basketball shoe, this "Air Jordan 4 Retro" isn't it—it's a lifestyle piece now. And if you're on a tight budget, $210 USD is a commitment for a retro. Now, the not-so-great stuff. The outsole is stiff initially – needs a break-in period. And that heel tab? It can dig into your Achilles if you're not wearing taller socks. It's a known quirk. Also, at $210, you're paying for the legacy. Don't expect modern, cloud-like cushioning here. Who is this for? Honestly, for any sneakerhead wanting a classic. If you're building a Jordan collection, the "4 Retro" is essential. It's also great for casual wearers who want a statement sneaker that goes with everything. The $210 USD price is an investment, but for this iconic design, it's justifiable.
