They live up to the hype for me. The look, the fit, the history—it all works. Are they the most comfortable shoe ever? No. But for a lifestyle sneaker with that iconic Jordan series DNA, they're excellent. I'd definitely recommend picking them up if you love the model. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue' in hand. First impression? The shape is on point, and that classic color blocking is just "chef's kiss". The quality feels solid right out of the box. For $210 USD, you're getting a piece of Jordan history, no doubt. Let's get these on feet. Putting these on... the fit is true to size for me. The Air unit in the heel provides a decent, familiar cushioning. They're not the lightest shoe, but you feel that stability. The lockdown around the midfoot is secure, thanks to those plastic wing eyelets. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 4 sits higher on the ankle than a Jordan 1 or 3. Cushioning is firmer than a Jordan 11 or 12. It's its own thing. If you like that mid-top support and a chunkier profile, this is your model. It's a definitive style within the Jordan series.
