The contrast with the black accents and grey mesh is just "chef's kiss". They look even better in natural light than in the box. This is a shoe that gets noticed. If you're into that retro basketball aesthetic, this colorway is a must-have. It's a straight-up classic. 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". Comparing it to my other Jordans... the Jordan 4 sits higher than a Jordan 1 and has more structure than a Jordan 3. The cushioning is firmer than the newer, more tech-heavy models. It's a different experience—more about classic style and that iconic profile than modern performance. Final verdict? For me, the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' is a must-have. It's a cornerstone of any collection. While not the comfiest shoe ever, its design is unbeatable. At $210, it's an investment in a classic. I'd recommend it to any fan of the series.
