It's less restrictive around the ankle. Versus the high-top AJ6, you lose some of that iconic lockdown feel, but you gain a ton in everyday versatility. It's a different vibe, but a good one. Putting them on, the fit is true to size for me. The "Air Jordan 6 Low" has a nice, secure lockdown around the midfoot. The cushioning isn't super plush like some modern shoes, but you definitely feel that Air unit in the heel. It's a comfortable, supportive ride right out of the box, perfect for casual wear. Who should skip it? If you're after top-tier, premium materials, you might be disappointed. Also, hardcore performance basketball players – obviously, look elsewhere. And if you only like the "original" high-top silhouette, the low version might feel like it's missing something. Who might want to skip it? Hardcore performance seekers or those who need max cushion. Also, if you're only into the "exact" OG high-top experience, the low version might feel like a compromise. For the $200 USD price, some might want more modern comfort tech. But if you're buying for style and heritage, it's a solid choice.
