Nike air jordan 4 : Comparing these to, say, a Jordan 1? The Air Jordan 4 is a bulkier, more structured shoe [rsjubcil]

It offers way more ankle support and has that distinctive techy look. Compared to other Jordan 4s, the 'Military Blue' is up there with the 'Breds' and 'Cements' for me - it's one of the essential original colorways. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits differently than, say, an AJ1. It's bulkier, has more of a mid-top feel. Versus an AJ3, the toebox is a bit roomier. I'd say the 4 is one of the more comfortable early Jordan models, but again, it's that retro firmness. It's a distinct silhouette in the Jordan series, no doubt. Who might want to skip it? If ultimate, all-day comfort is your #1 priority, look elsewhere. Performance basketball players should choose modern models. Also, if you prefer low-profile, minimal sneakers, the AJ4's chunkiness might not be your vibe. It's a statement piece. Conversely, who might want to skip it? If you prioritize lightweight, flexible shoes for all-day walking or standing, the "Jordan 4's" weight and structure might not be for you. Also, if you have very wide feet, that break-in period in the toe box could be a real hassle.
