The 4 might feel a bit more streamlined, the 1 is obviously more minimal. But the 6 has its own unique vibe with that spoiler and clean lines. It's less about court performance now and more about that iconic style, which Jordan nailed here. One of the biggest "pros" for this "Air Jordan Retro 6" is its "durability". The materials, especially on this 'Infrared' version, are tough. The outsole rubber is thick, and the upper can take a bit of a beating. They're easy to clean for a mostly-black shoe. Also, the lockdown from the lace system and that padded collar is excellent. Your foot isn't going anywhere, which is great for all-day wear. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Retro 6 sits somewhere between the bulky 5 and the sleeker 7. It's definitely heavier than a Retro 1 or 3, no question. But that's part of its identity. If you want a lightweight, minimalist sneaker, this ain't it. But if you dig that '90s basketball aesthetic, this is a top-tier example. Final verdict? For me, the Air Jordan Retro 6 'Infrared' is a definite cop. It's a legendary shoe in a legendary color. The pros – the iconic look, solid materials, and heritage – far outweigh the cons of the snug fit and retro cushioning. If you can find them for retail or a good price, around $200 USD, they're absolutely worth adding to the rotation.
