If you're used to modern, pillowy-soft sneakers, the "Nike Air Jordan 6 Low" might feel a bit stiff initially. It breaks in, but don't buy these expecting a cloud-like feel. That's the trade-off with many classic retros. It's part of the authentic experience, but not for everyone. On feet, the design really pops. The 'Infrared' hits on the midsole and heel tab are subtle but fire in person. The nubuck material looks great in natural light. Wearing the Jordan 6 Low just feels more versatile than the OG high—easier to style with shorts or jeans without that bulky ankle collar. A major pro? The versatility. You can literally wear this "Jordan series" low-top with almost anything. The color-blocking is simple and effective. Also, the price point, while not cheap, is pretty standard for a retro Jordan release these days. You're paying for the heritage and the look, which it delivers. Now, a potential con? The materials. Don't expect buttery soft leather. It's a bit stiff at first and might crease in a noticeable way. Also, if you need max cushioning for all-day standing, this isn't it. The Air Jordan 6 Low is more about style and decent comfort, not performance tech.
