It's bulkier, more of a statement. The cushioning is also different—more impact protection than the 1s, but not as plush as, say, a Jordan 13. It occupies its own unique space in the Jordan series, and that's why it's so beloved. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' in hand. First off, the shape on this retro is "really" solid. The leather feels decent, not amazing, but the iconic silhouette and that classic color blocking? It's a timeless look. Unboxing this Jordan 4, you instantly get that '89 vibe. So, is the Nike Air Jordan 4 worth the $210 price tag? For me, yes. You're paying for an icon. The craftsmanship, the history, and the versatile style make it a worthwhile pickup. It's not the most technologically advanced shoe, but it doesn't need to be. It's a classic for a reason. Major pros? Timeless design, no question. The "Nike Air Jordan 4" is an icon. Durability seems good, and the colorway versatility is huge. That secure, locked-in fit is a big plus. For a retro, it does its job well: looks awesome and feels authentically 1989.
