It's also noticeably heavier than an AJ11. For comfort, a Jordan 13 or later model might beat it. But for pure style and that timeless look? The AJ4 holds its own in the Jordan series, no question. So, would I recommend copping? If you've been eyeing the Nike Air Jordan 4, especially this 'Military Blue' version, I say go for it. It's a legendary silhouette that's easy to wear. Just go in knowing what it is: a firm, stylish retro. For me, it's a definite yes – a great addition to any rotation. On feet, the design really pops. The mesh panels and those plastic wing eyelets... they just look so good in person. The 'Military Blue' is versatile – it goes with a lot of fits. In different lighting, you really appreciate the texture of the materials. It's a shoe that looks even better when you're actually wearing it, not just in the box. On foot now, and the initial comfort is... okay. It's a retro, so don't expect Boost or ZoomX. The Air unit in the heel is there, but it's firm. The lockdown from the wings and laces is actually really good—my foot feels secure. For a Jordan 4, it's not too heavy. It's a comfortable shoe for casual wear, but I wouldn't run in it, obviously. The break-in period is real with these.
