Without the traditional mesh side panels, your feet might get a little warmer. Also, as I said, the comfort is more about structure than soft cushioning. If you're buying Jordans "purely" for all-day comfort walks, these Rare Air 4s probably aren't your first pick. They're more style-forward. New to collecting? The "rare air jordan 4" "Military Blue" is a fantastic start. You get that iconic design language—the mesh panels, the winged eyelets—at a relatively friendly price point. It's a comfortable, stylish shoe you'll reach for often. Not for those chasing the hypest colorways, but perfect for building a wearable rotation. Conversely, who should skip it? Hardcore OG Jordan 4 collectors who need every detail replicated. Also, folks seeking maximal comfort or technical innovation—look elsewhere in the Jordan series. This is about style and silhouette over cutting-edge feel. And if you hate cleaning your kicks, maybe consider a darker colorway. Honestly? I dig the rare air jordan 4 for what it is. It’s a breathable, stripped-back version. The design is sleek in person - the simplified panels work. But if you crave that bulky, protective Jordan 4 feel? This isn't it. Perfect for collectors of the series or anyone wanting a lighter, more breathable Jordan. Not for OG purists, though.
