It's an investment in style, not just comfort. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' in hand. First impression? The quality is solid. The nubuck feels decent, and that classic Air Jordan 4 silhouette is just iconic, man. Unboxing this colorway, especially, feels like a real piece of history. The price was around $210 USD, which is standard for a Jordan retro these days. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits in a nice middle ground. It's more substantial and has more tech (visually) than an AJ1, but it's often more wearable than the super-techy later models. The price point of $210 is pretty standard for a retro these days. You're paying for that legacy and this specific, beloved colorway. On feet now. The Air Jordan 4 cushioning is... okay. It's firm, not super plush. The lockdown is good, though! The heel tab and wings system work. They're a bit heavier than I expected, honestly. Not the most comfortable Jordan, but it's a solid, supportive feel.
