.. initial thoughts? The fit is true to size for me. The lockdown around the midfoot from those plastic wings is "immediate" and really secure. It's not a super plush, modern feel—you definitely feel the firmness of the midsole. But hey, that's part of the classic Jordan DNA, right? Now, potential cons... The toe box creases easily – that's just the nature of the materials. Also, if you need extreme cushioning, look elsewhere. The Air Jordan 4 is about style and heritage over cloud-like comfort. The price, $210, might also be steep for some for a retro that hasn't changed much tech-wise. Alright, so I just got my hands on the Nike Air Jordan 4 'Military Blue'! First impression? The shape is classic, and the color blocking is super clean. The quality on this retro feels solid right out of the box. For $210 USD, you're getting that iconic Jordan series silhouette. Let's get these on foot. Now, the cons. The main drawback for some will be the comfort tech—or lack thereof. It's a 1989 cushioning setup. If you're used to modern performance shoes, this will feel stiff. Also, that nubuck upper? It can be a dirt magnet, especially in this light colorway. You gotta be prepared to clean these Air Jordan 4s regularly. They're not a "beat 'em up" daily driver for everyone.
