The build quality feels solid, and that Infrared hit on the midsole? It "pops". For $200 USD, you're getting a classic Jordan series silhouette in a low-top format. The leather is decent, not premium, but it looks great straight out of the box. Comparing it to other Lows in the "Jordan series", like the AJ1 Low or AJ5 Low, the "Jordan 6 Low" has its own unique charm. It's less ubiquitous than the 1s, which I kinda like. The toe box shape is distinctive. For around $200 USD, you're getting a piece of iconic design history in a more wearable, low-profile package. That's a win in my book. Let's talk about the on-foot feel. I slipped these on, and the fit is true to size for me. The cushioning is decent - you get that Air unit in the heel, so it's comfortable for all-day wear. They're not the "most" plush Jordans out there, but for a low-top, the support is there. The weight is nice and manageable, too. No complaints here. Who should maybe skip it? If you're buying strictly for basketball performance, this isn't it—get a modern performance model. Also, if you have very wide feet, the fit could be an issue. And if cushioning is king for you, the firm ride of the "Nike Air Jordan 6 Low" might be a dealbreaker. It's a style-first, heritage sneaker at its core.
