It's more structured than a 1, and the support is different from a low-top. If you like a mid-top with a defined silhouette, this is your jam. It's a cornerstone of the Jordan series. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits higher off the ground than a Jordan 1, for sure. It's chunkier than a 3, but I think it has more of a modern, wearable shape. The 4 is less bulky than a Jordan 5 or 6. For casual wear, the AJ4 is probably one of the most versatile models in the entire Jordan series lineup. Alright, so I just got the "Nike Air Jordan 4" in the 'Military Blue' colorway. 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. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize ultimate cushioning above all, look at React or Boost models. Also, if you have very wide feet, the fit might be snug. And if you're on a tight budget, $210 USD is an investment. But for the design? I think it's worth it.
