It's a faithful retro of a legendary colorway. For me, the pros—the timeless look, the secure fit, the heritage—outweigh the cons of the basic comfort. Would I recommend it? Yes, but with those caveats. Try a pair on if you can to feel the fit for yourself. Who might want to skip it? If you need maximum cushioning for all-day standing, look at newer models. Also, if you prefer a more streamlined, low-profile sneaker, the bulk of the Air Jordan 4 might not be your thing. It's a style-first shoe, remember that. My final take? I really like this shoe. The Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' is a legend. It looks fantastic on foot, and the quality is there. Yes, the ride is firm, but that's part of its character. For me, the pros of style and heritage far outweigh the cons. It's a solid pickup for any collection. The design is timeless. The mesh panels and those plastic wing eyelets are just iconic. On camera, this 'Military Blue' colorway really pops against simple fits. It's a versatile sneaker that works with a lot of styles. As a Jordan release, it's a must-have for collectors of the series.
