The low-cut is perfect if you find the OG a bit restrictive. However, you do lose some of that iconic, bulky look. It's a trade-off. For casual style, this low version is a winner. It's easier to wear with different pants and shorts. Let's talk materials. It's mostly synthetic leather, which is expected at this $200 price point for a retro. It's durable and easy to wipe clean. However, if you're a "materials snob" wanting buttery soft tumbled leather, this Nike Air Jordan 6 Low might disappoint. It's about the iconic look and feel, not premium luxe. Who should maybe pass? Hardcore performance basketball players, obviously. Also, if you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, there are better cushioned options out there for the price. And if you're all about that high-top aesthetic and ankle support, the original "AJ6" high is still the king. This "Low" sacrifices some of that iconic look for everyday function. Alright, so let's get into these! First impression out of the box? The "Nike Air Jordan 6 Low" in this 'White Infrared' colorway is just clean. The build quality feels solid, and that low-cut silhouette immediately looks more versatile than the high-top. For around $170 USD, you're getting a classic "Jordan" look in a much more casual, wearable package. The materials here are pretty standard, but the overall shape is on point.
