The fit is true to size for me. The cushioning is... okay. It's not super plush like modern performance shoes, but it's comfortable for all-day wear. The Air unit in the heel does its job. The lockdown from the wings is good. It's a comfortable, classic basketball sneaker feel. 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. Now, a potential con: the creasing. The soft leather on the toe box will crease, and it happens fast. If you're super obsessive about keeping your kicks pristine, that might bug you. Also, the ventilation isn't great; it can get a bit warm. Just keeping it real with you guys. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' in hand. First off, the shape on this retro is "really" solid. The leather feels decent, not amazing, but the iconic silhouette and that classic color blocking? It's a timeless look. Unboxing this Jordan 4, you instantly get that '89 vibe.
