First impression out of the box? Honestly, super clean. The 'Black / Cement Grey' colorway is a classic vibe, but the build... it's different, right? You immediately notice the lighter construction. It's not your standard AJ4, that's for sure. For $210 USD, you're getting a unique take on the silhouette. Let's talk on-feet feel. I've been wearing these "rare air jordan 4" 'Military Blue' editions for a few hours now. The cushioning? It's firm but supportive - you feel secure. The big difference from a standard AJ4 is the "upper" - it's simpler, which actually makes them a bit lighter. Styling them is a breeze - they pop just enough. Pro: A fantastic, unique take on an icon. Con: The price is up there at $225. I'd recommend these to collectors or 4s enthusiasts who want something different. Not for folks wanting max comfort or a low price tag. Final verdict? I like them for what they are: a solid, versatile take on an icon. The Rare Air Jordan 4 offers a fresh look while keeping the core DNA. At $200 USD, it's a reasonable entry into the Jordan 4 world. It's not the most exciting release, but it's a practical, stylish one. Your move depends on what you value in your sneakers. Let's talk pros & cons. Major pro? The comfort & weight for casual wear is fantastic. Another pro is the price point – at $210, it's often more accessible than some hyped retros. A con? Purists might hate the missing details (like the plastic wing eyelets). The durability of the mesh vs. leather is also a question mark long-term.
