It's more substantial than an AJ1, but often more wearable than a bulkier AJ5 or AJ6. For me, it's one of the most versatile silhouettes in the entire Jordan series. Comparing these to, say, a Jordan 1? The Air Jordan 4 is a bulkier, more structured shoe. It offers way more ankle support and has that distinctive techy look. Compared to other Jordan 4s, the 'Military Blue' is up there with the 'Breds' and 'Cements' for me - it's one of the essential original colorways. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits between the AJ3 and AJ5 for me. It's less bulky than a 5, but has more structure than a 3. The cushioning is firmer than an AJ1, for sure. If you like that retro, supportive build, this is a great pick. It's a cornerstone of the Jordan series. Putting these on... the fit is true to size for me. The Air unit in the heel gives a nice, familiar cushioning. It's not the most plush Jordan ever, but it's comfortable for all-day wear. The upper is supportive without being restrictive. For a retro, the Air Jordan 4 still delivers a reliable on-foot feel.
