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. 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. Major "pros"? The durability is a big one. The materials on this 'Infrared' version are tough and should age well. The style is iconic—it's a piece of sneaker history. Also, for a retro basketball shoe, it's surprisingly comfortable for casual wear. You get that classic "Nike Air Jordan 6" look without sacrificing all-day wearability. Now, potential cons... The toe box can feel a bit roomy for some, so if you like a super snug fit, maybe go down half a size? Also, the traction pattern picks up dust like crazy. If you're looking for ultra-modern, cloud-like comfort, this Nike Air Jordan 6 isn't it. It's a retro basketball shoe, through and through.
