The inner sleeve provides a snug, comfortable lockdown around your ankle, which I really appreciate. They're not the lightest Retro out there, but the weight feels solid, not clunky. The Air Jordan Retro 6 has a distinct, supportive feel right out of the box. So, is it worth the $200 USD? If this is a grail colorway for you in the Jordan series, absolutely. For a general sneaker fan, maybe wait for a discount. But trying them on confirmed it: the Air Jordan Retro 6 remains a classic. Hope this real-world on-foot review helped you decide! Walking around in them, the comfort is okay for casual wear. The encapsulated Air unit in the heel does its job. But if you're coming from modern performance models, the Air Jordan Retro 6 will feel stiff. It's about style over ultimate comfort. The silhouette, though, is just timeless on foot. So, who is this Air Jordan Retro 6 for? Sneakerheads who love OG colorways, obviously. Anyone wanting a supportive, high-top casual shoe. It's great for collectors and fans of 90s basketball aesthetics. If you appreciate Michael Jordan's first championship shoe, this is a must-have in your rotation, in my view.
