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. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Jordan 4 sits lower than a Jordan 1 and has more tech than a Jordan 3. The support is better for me than a Jordan 5. It's a great middle-ground model in the Jordan series. Each has its vibe, but the 4 is iconic. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all, maybe look at newer models. The price, $210, is steep for some for a retro. If you're not into maintenance, the light-colored nubuck might stress you out. It's a lifestyle piece first. On feet, the design really pops. The 'Military Blue' hits against the white and grey work so well. In natural light, the details like the mesh netting and the heel tab stand out. It's a shoe that gets compliments, for sure. Compared to a bulkier Jordan 5 or a lower-cut Jordan 1, the AJ4 has a unique, chunky-yet-sleek profile that I personally dig.
