It's less sleek than a 1, but has more going on than a 3. The comfort is different from an AJ11, which is more court-focused. This is a lifestyle/retro basketball hybrid. It has its own unique place in the Jordan series lineage, no doubt. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' in hand. First thing I notice? The quality is solid. The leather feels decent, and that iconic silhouette, especially with this classic colorway, just pops. It's a timeless look, honestly. For $210 USD, you're getting a piece of Jordan history right here. 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. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Air Jordan 4" sits between the 3 and the 5 for me. It's not as plush as a well-worn AJ3, but it's more comfortable than a stiff AJ5 out of the box. The silhouette is more angular and bulky than the 1s or 3s, which is part of its charm. It's a distinct look within the "Jordan series".
