.. the fit is snug, in a good way. The inner sleeve hugs your foot. Cushioning? It's firm, not super plush like modern shoes, but you definitely feel that Air unit in the heel. They're not heavy, but you know you're wearing a substantial sneaker. It's a very '90s basketball feel. Who might want to skip? If you prioritize lightweight, modern performance feel, look elsewhere. Also, if you prefer low-top or minimalist sneakers, the Air Jordan 6's bulk might not be your style. And if you're on a tight budget, $200 for a retro is a real consideration versus newer tech. My final, real take? I love this shoe. The Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' is an icon. It looks incredible on foot, the quality is there, and it connects you to sneaker history. Is it the most comfortable shoe in my rotation? No. But for style, presence, and that classic vibe, it's absolutely worth it for the right person. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 6 sits higher around the ankle than a Jordan 1 or 4. Cushioning is less soft than a Jordan 13, for example. It's its own thing—a 90s basketball shoe feel. If you love that era's aesthetic and don't need max comfort, you'll appreciate this. The Air Jordan 6 represents a specific point in the Jordan series timeline.
