Nike air jordan 4 : On foot, the design really pops [hcdrupct]

The Military Blue accents against the white and grey work so well. In natural light, the materials look great on camera. The Air Jordan 4 has a bulky profile, but it's a stylish bulk, you know? It gives you that confident, substantial look. For a retro, it holds up visually. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits higher on the ankle than a Jordan 1 or 3. Cushioning is firmer than a Jordan 11 or 12. It's its own thing. If you like that mid-top support and a chunkier profile, this is your model. It's a definitive style within the Jordan series. Sliding my foot into this "Air Jordan 4"... initial thoughts? The fit is true to size for me. The lockdown around the midfoot from those plastic wings is "immediate" and really secure. It's not a super plush, modern feel—you definitely feel the firmness of the midsole. But hey, that's part of the classic Jordan DNA, right? Who should maybe skip it? If you're new to sneakers and just want the most comfortable shoe possible, look at newer models. Also, if you have very wide feet, the fit might be snug. And if you're on a tight budget, $210 USD is an investment for a retro. There are more performance-oriented options at that price.
