That firm cushioning I mentioned? It might not be for everyone, especially if you're used to plush, modern sneakers. Also, the price point—around $200 USD—is standard for retros, but it's an investment. The Air Jordan Retro 6 is about style and heritage over cutting-edge comfort. My final take? For $200 USD, the Air Jordan Retro 6 'Infrared' is a cornerstone release. It's done right. You're paying for the legacy, the iconic look, and a piece of sneaker history. On foot, it feels like wearing a classic—because you are. I'm really happy with this pickup. In summary: The Air Jordan Retro 6 is a great buy for what it is. It's not trying to be something new. It's a straight-up, well-executed retro. Would I recommend it? Yes, if you understand and appreciate its place in the game. Just manage your comfort expectations, and you'll love it. Comparing these to, say, a Retro 4 or a Retro 1? The AJ6 is chunkier. 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.
