.. the fit is true to size for me. The lockdown around the midfoot is good, thanks to those plastic wing eyelets. They're not the lightest shoe, you definitely feel the structure, but it's a comfortable, supportive feel. The air unit in the heel? You can feel it, but it's more about stability than crazy cushioning. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 is stiffer than an AJ1 or AJ3. Less bulky than an AJ5, though. It sits right in the middle. If you want cloud-like comfort, look at the AJ13. But for pure style points? This model holds its own in the Jordan series, for sure. How do they look on camera? Honestly, the 'Military Blue' pops. The contrast with the grey and black details is really sharp. The mesh panels and those plastic eyelets give the Air Jordan 4 so much texture. It's a shoe that photographs well from every angle. In natural light, that blue just looks so fresh and classic. Let's talk on-feet. The Air Jordan 4 has a decent comfort level. It's not super plush like some modern shoes, but the Air unit in the heel does its job. The lockdown is pretty good once you lace them up. For a retro basketball shoe, the feel is what I anticipated—supportive but not exactly a cloud.
