The 4 offers more structure and that unique, bulky-yet-sleek look. Versus a Jordan 3, the 4 is less rounded and has those iconic plastic wing eyelets and mesh panels. I think the Jordan 4 has a more technical, "futuristic" (for its time) vibe. It stands out in the Jordan line for sure. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Jordan 4 sits higher off the ground than a Jordan 1, for sure. It's chunkier than a Jordan 3, but I think it has more presence. The comfort is different—less pillowy than a Jordan 13, but more stable for casual wear, in my opinion. Now, a potential con: the toe box creasing. It's just part of the deal with this model - the soft leather/nubuck will crease. Also, the ventilation isn't amazing; your feet might get warm. And at ~$210 USD, it's an investment. If you want a super breathable, ultra-light daily runner, this isn't it. On feet, the design "really" pops. The 'Military Blue' hits against the grey and white is a timeless combo. They look great in motion and photograph even better. That mesh netting and the plastic wing eyelets give it so much texture. The "Nike Air Jordan 4" just has a presence that few other sneakers can match, in my opinion.
