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. Slipping into these Air Jordan 4s, the fit is true to size for me. The lockdown is good, but let's be real—the cushioning isn't modern "boost" level. It's firm, but in a familiar, classic way. You're getting that '80s/90s basketball shoe feel, which I don't mind for casual wear. The weight is noticeable but not overly heavy. Putting these Jordan 4s on... the fit is true to size for me. The upper is supportive, but I gotta say, the break-in period is real. The forefoot can feel a bit stiff initially. It's not the "most" plush Jordan out of the gate, but that's kinda expected with this model. The Air unit in the heel does its job, though. Big pro for me? The versatility. You can wear these Nike Air Jordan 4s with jeans, shorts, joggers... they just work. The design is so recognizable yet not overly loud. The quality on this 'Military Blue' retro seems consistent. It's a shoe built to last, both in style and construction.
