It needs a short break-in period. Also, the nubuck can be prone to creasing and water spots. If you're super rough on your kicks, maybe consider that. It's a retro, so don't expect ultra-modern, bouncy tech. Let's talk pros. Durability is a big one—the upper on this Air Jordan 4 is tough. The outsole grip is excellent, even on dusty courts. And style-wise, it's an icon. You're buying a piece of sneaker history that still looks incredibly relevant today. Who are these for? Honestly, for any sneakerhead who appreciates the classics. If you missed out on the older releases, this 2024 version of the Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' is a must. It's also great for someone wanting a stylish, durable sneaker that isn't overly flashy. You're buying into a legacy with this shoe. Comparing this 'Military Blue' Air Jordan 4 to, say, a Jordan 1? It's a totally different animal. 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.
