It's for the collector who appreciates iconic silhouettes. It's also great for someone wanting a statement sneaker that isn't a Jordan 1. For $210 USD, you're paying for the heritage and the timeless look. It's a wearable piece of history. Comparing it to other retros... the Jordan 4 sits higher off the ground than a Jordan 3. The cushioning is less plush than a modern Jordan model, like the 13s or 35s. You're getting a vintage basketball feel. So, manage your expectations—it's not a super-comfortable all-day walking shoe right away. Alright, so I just got the "Nike Air Jordan 4 Retro" in the 'Military Blue' colorway. First impression? The shape is "super" clean on this retro. The materials feel good, not premium, but solid for the price point around $210. The iconic silhouette, with those plastic wing eyelets and mesh panels, looks fantastic straight out of the box. It's a classic for a reason. My final, real take? I love the "Jordan 4 Retro". 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.
