The durability of the Air Jordan 4 is a major plus. The materials can take a beating. The style is incredibly iconic—it's a head-turner. Also, for a retro basketball shoe, the breathability from the mesh side panels isn't bad at all. It's a well-thought-out design that has stood the test of time. My final take? I'm keeping my pair. The Nike Air Jordan 4 is a cornerstone of the Jordan series. The flaws (stiffness, creasing) are part of its character. It's a style icon first, a comfort shoe second. If you get it on a slight discount? Even better. Let's talk about the look. This 'Military Blue' colorway pops in person, way more than in pictures. The mesh and leather combo gives it great texture. On camera, this Jordan 4 just works—it's a timeless design that always gets compliments. It's a straight-up clean, versatile sneaker. Putting these Jordan 4s on for the first time... the fit is pretty true to size for me. The lockdown around the midfoot is good, thanks to those plastic wings. But let's be real, the cushioning isn't super plush by today's standards. It's firm, but comfortable for all-day wear. You're buying these for the style, not for a cloud-like feel, honestly.
