The upper on the Air Jordan Retro 6 is mostly synthetic and doesn't breathe the best. For all-day wear in summer, your feet might get warm. Also, the outsole traction on dusty indoor floors can be just average. It's a style-first shoe, remember. Who might want to skip it? If your #1 priority is all-day, cloud-like comfort, look elsewhere. Runners or people seeking maximum cushion might be disappointed. Also, if you prefer a lighter, more flexible shoe, the weight of the Retro 6 could be a dealbreaker. It's about style and heritage over modern performance. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Retro 6" sits differently than, say, a "Jordan 1" or a "Jordan 4". It's less bulky than a 4 but has more structure than a 1. The silhouette is unique in the lineup—kind of sleek yet aggressive. If you have other retros, this adds a distinct flavor to your collection without feeling redundant. Now, potential cons? The tech is 30 years old. If you want cutting-edge comfort, look elsewhere. It can feel a bit stiff initially, and that higher price tag—$200 USD—is steep for some. The design might feel too chunky for people who prefer minimalist sneakers.
