The nubuck is soft and should age nicely. I also appreciate the durability; the reinforced toe cap and thick outsole mean these can handle daily wear. For a retro basketball shoe, the Air Jordan 6 offers a good blend of style and substance that's hard to beat in its price range. So, who are these for? Honestly, if you're a fan of 90s basketball sneakers, or just want a sturdy, statement-making casual shoe, this is a great pick. The 'Infrared' colorway is a legend for a reason. It works for collectors and daily wearers alike. Who should maybe skip it? If you prioritize all-day, cloud-like comfort above all else, look at modern performance models. Also, if you prefer low-profile, minimalist sneakers, the bulky Air Jordan Retro 6 silhouette might feel a bit too much for you. Is it worth the $200 price tag? For a classic like this, I'd say yes—if you love the model. You're paying for the legacy and that iconic look. The quality here is consistent with recent Jordan Brand retro releases. Just don't expect groundbreaking, cloud-like comfort.
