It's one of my favorite silhouettes. For the style, the heritage, and the versatility, it's worth it to me. Would I recommend it? Yes, but go in with the right expectations. You're buying a piece of history and a great-looking shoe, not a cloud-like comfort experience. It's a solid cop for the collection. Alright, so let's get into these Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro 'Military Blue's. First off, the box is classic, and pulling them out? The shape is "immediately" recognizable. That iconic silhouette, man. The color blocking with that cool grey and military blue is just "clean". For a $210 USD release, the materials feel pretty standard for a retro—nothing crazy premium, but the construction looks solid right out of the gate. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "AJ4 Retro" sits differently than an AJ1. 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. Wearing them around, the design really pops. The 'Military Blue' hits against the white and grey? "Chef's kiss". They look even better in person than in pics. The way the mesh and plastic wings catch the light on camera is "so" good for content. A very photogenic shoe, no doubt.
