The durability on these seems great—the materials can take a beating. I also love the unique lacing system and how secure the foot feels. For a retro, the Air Jordan 6 offers good ankle support, which is a plus if you're actually playing in them. The style is timeless; it works with jeans or shorts effortlessly. So, who is the Nike Air Jordan 6 for? It's perfect for sneakerheads who appreciate the history, or anyone wanting a statement sneaker with a timeless design. It's great for casual outfits and collectors. The quality and look justify the price for its target audience. On feet, the design really pops. The 'Infrared' hits on the midsole and lace lock are so vibrant in person. The high-cut design makes your legs look good. Compared to, say, an Air Jordan 1, the AJ6 has way more of a 90s basketball profile. It's a statement piece for sure, not a low-key sneaker. Now, a potential con: the fit. My true size felt a bit roomy in the toebox. I'd recommend going down half a size if you like a snug fit, especially for performance. The Nike Air Jordan 6 can feel a little clunky if it's too loose. Also, that padded tongue and collar, while supportive, can be warm. Not the best choice for super hot summer days, honestly.
