If you're used to super bouncy, React or Boost-type cushioning, the Air unit here will feel stiff. Also, the toe box can feel a bit restrictive if you have wider feet. It's a performance fit from a different era. On feet, the design really shines. The silhouette of the Air Jordan 6 is so distinctive with those molded panels and the lace locks. On camera or walking around, it's a statement piece. The 'Infrared' version, in particular, has that perfect color blocking that makes it a true grail for many sneakerheads. Now, potential cons? The toe box can feel a bit roomy for some. If you have a narrow foot, you might want to try it on first. Also, the traction pattern isn't for serious court use anymore—it's a lifestyle shoe now. And the price? $200 USD is steep for some, but it's standard for a Retro. Just things to consider. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 1? The Jordan 6 is a bulkier, more structured shoe. Versus a Jordan 11, it's less about sleekness and more about that rugged, '90s basketball aesthetic. The toe guard and those plastic lace locks are unique to this model. It's a different vibe in the Jordan series, for sure.
