First thing out of the box? The shape is "super" clean on this retro. The materials feel solid, not cheap at all. Honestly, for a classic "Jordan" silhouette, this is a strong start. The price point is around $210 USD, which is pretty standard for a retro release these days. Comparing it to other Jordans, the Air Jordan 4 sits in a nice middle ground. It's more substantial than an AJ1, but often more wearable than a bulkier AJ5 or AJ6. For me, it's one of the most versatile silhouettes in the entire Jordan series. Let's talk on-feet. Slipping into this "Jordan 4", the fit is true to size for me. The support around the ankle is "immediate" – you really feel locked in. It's not the lightest shoe, you definitely notice the weight, but it's not uncomfortable. The cushioning from the Air unit is there, but it's more about stability than crazy softness, which I actually prefer for all-day wear. So, who is this for? Honestly, it's for the sneaker enthusiast who appreciates classics. It's for someone building a versatile collection with iconic models. If you love the Jordan series and the 4's design language, this 'Military Blue' is an essential colorway to own. You'll get a lot of wear out of it.
