If you value iconic design, solid construction, and a comfortable, supportive fit for all-day wear, this is a great pickup. It's a versatile sneaker that works in many wardrobes. The $200 USD price tag is standard for a premium retro, and you're paying for heritage and quality here. Who should maybe skip it? If your #1 priority is all-day, walk-all-over-the-city comfort, look at something with newer tech. Also, if you have very wide feet, that snug fit might be an issue. It's a performance-bred design from the '90s, after all. Worth the $200 USD? If this is one of your grail colorways, absolutely. The Air Jordan Retro 6 'Infrared' is a legend. Just go in knowing what you're getting: an iconic, well-built retro with classic, not modern, comfort. For me, it's a yes. Comparing it to, say, an AJ1 or an AJ4? The Jordan Retro 6 sits differently. It's bulkier than a 1 but has more defined lines than a 4. The comfort profile is unique to the 6s—it's more about lockdown and support than sheer cushion. If you're used to the minimal feel of a 1, the 6 will feel more substantial and protective, which can be a good thing.
