You're getting a well-made, iconic shoe. But if you're just chasing hype or max comfort, maybe look elsewhere. For me, this Air Jordan 4 is a solid 8.5/10. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' in hand, and my first thought is: the shape is "so" clean. The color blocking is classic, you know? The white, grey, and that pop of blue just work. Holding it, the materials feel good—not super premium, but solid for a $210 retro. The nubuck is nice and soft right out of the box. Let's see how it feels on foot. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits differently than, say, an AJ1. It's bulkier, has more of a mid-top feel. Versus an AJ3, the toebox is a bit roomier. I'd say the 4 is one of the more comfortable early Jordan models, but again, it's that retro firmness. It's a distinct silhouette in the Jordan series, no doubt. Who is this for? Sneakerheads who appreciate history, or anyone wanting a stylish, durable sneaker. It's perfect for casual wear. If you're into the Jordan series and don't have a 4 yet, this 'Military Blue' is a fantastic, iconic place to start. It's a wardrobe staple.
