The mesh panels and those plastic wing eyelets... they just look so good in person. The 'Military Blue' is versatile – it goes with a lot of fits. In different lighting, you really appreciate the texture of the materials. It's a shoe that looks even better when you're actually wearing it, not just in the box. On foot now, and the initial comfort is... okay. It's a retro, so don't expect Boost or ZoomX. The Air unit in the heel is there, but it's firm. The lockdown from the wings and laces is actually really good—my foot feels secure. For a Jordan 4, it's not too heavy. It's a comfortable shoe for casual wear, but I wouldn't run in it, obviously. The break-in period is real with these. Big pro for me is the versatility. This 'Military Blue' Air Jordan 4 goes with jeans, shorts, joggers—you name it. It's also incredibly durable. The outsole is tough, and the upper materials can take a beating. For a lifestyle shoe, it's built to last, which is a huge plus. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Jordan 4" sits right between the AJ3 and AJ5 for me. It's got more structure than the 3, but it's not as tech-heavy or angular as the 5. If you like a shoe with presence and a defined heel, this is your jam. The "Nike Air Jordan 4" really holds its own in the lineage.
