.. the fit is snug, true to size. The padded collar is super comfortable around the ankle, a signature of this model. They feel a bit heavier than modern shoes, but you get used to it. The cushioning? It's decent - not super plush, but you feel that Air unit. It's a classic feel, for better or worse. Let's talk on-foot feel. Slipping into the "Air Jordan 6", the fit is snug - true to size for me. The cushioning? It's firm, not super plush like modern shoes, but you definitely feel that Air unit in the heel. It's comfortable for all-day wear, honestly. The ankle collar provides good support without being restrictive. It's a classic feel. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 6 sits higher off the ground than a Jordan 1, for sure. It's more of a mid-top feel. Cushioning is different too - less board-like than a 1, but also not as soft as something like a Jordan 13. It's its own thing. If you like that late 80s/early 90s basketball shoe aesthetic, this is a prime example. On feet, the design of this Air Jordan 6 really stands out. The perforated tongue and those molded heel tabs are such distinctive details. In natural light, the 'Infrared' colorway looks even better than in promo pics. It's a shoe that gets compliments, for sure. Compared to, say, a Jordan 1, it's a bulkier, more 90s performance look, which I'm totally into.
