The Air Jordan 4 isn't uncomfortable, but it's not Boost or React. Also, if you dislike a heavier, structured feel on foot, this might not be your vibe. It's about style and heritage more than modern tech. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' in hand. First impression? The shape is "on point" and the color blocking is super clean. The leather feels decent, not the absolute best, but it's solid for a retro. You can tell it's a classic Jordan silhouette right away. Let's get these on foot. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits between the AJ3 and AJ5 for me. It's less sleek than a 1, but has more going on than a 3. The comfort is different from an AJ11, which is more court-focused. This is a lifestyle/retro basketball hybrid. It has its own unique place in the Jordan series lineage, no doubt. Putting these Air Jordan 4s on... the fit is true to size for me. The lockdown around the midfoot is good, thanks to those plastic wings. The cushioning? It's firm. You're not getting Zoom Air comfort here, it's that classic '80s/90s feel. They're not heavy, but you definitely feel the structure. It's a different experience from modern performance shoes.
