The cushioning is "firm". If you're used to modern, bouncy sneakers, you might be disappointed. The Air-Sole unit in the heel is basic. Also, the toe box can feel a bit restrictive for wider feet. It's a shoe from a different era of tech, and that shows in the ride. Putting these Air Jordan Retro 6s on... the fit is snug, in a good way. The ankle collar and those molded holes give a locked-in feel. Cushioning? It's firm, classic Jordan. Don't expect Boost-level softness, but it's comfortable for all-day wear. The weight is noticeable but not heavy, you know? It feels substantial. On feet, the silhouette is just killer. The way the midsole curves and that sculpted heel – it's a very '90s basketball shoe look that works perfectly with jeans or shorts. The Infrared colorway, especially, gets attention. On camera, the different textures of the materials really show up well. Who should buy these? Honestly, any sneaker enthusiast looking to build a rounded Jordan collection needs a Retro 6. They're perfect for casual wear, and fans of the '90s basketball aesthetic will love them. If you have wider feet, you might appreciate the fit. They're also great for those who want a durable shoe that doesn't sacrifice style.
