It's perfect for casual wearers who appreciate iconic design over max cushioning. Great for sneakerheads completing their "Jordan series" collection. Honestly, if you love the '90s aesthetic, you'll love having these in your rotation. Now, the cons, because no shoe is perfect. The outsole is a dust magnet, seriously. And like I said, if you're used to modern Zoom Air or Boost, the Air-Sole unit in here will feel basic. It's not a performance shoe anymore. The tongue can also be a bit bulky under pants. So, if cutting-edge comfort is your top priority, the "Air Jordan 6" might not be your first pick. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 1? The "Jordan 6" is generally more comfortable for longer periods because of that Air unit. Versus a Jordan 11? It's less performance-oriented and more of a lifestyle piece now. Within the Jordan series, the 6 sits in a nice spot—recognizable, wearable, and with a distinct 90s vibe that's hard to beat. Here's a major pro: the materials. This particular Air Jordan 6 uses a really nice grade of nubuck. It's soft, doesn't feel cheap, and should age beautifully with some wear. The toe cap overlay is also great for durability—scuffs won't show as easily. For a retro release, Nike did a good job here. It feels like a proper premium product from the Jordan series.
