.. 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. Let's talk on-feet. Slipping into these "Air Jordan 6s", the fit is true to size for me. The interior padding is plush, giving a really secure, locked-in feel around the ankle. It's not the lightest shoe, you can feel the substance, but it's comfortable. The cushioning from the visible Air unit is decent – good for all-day wear, not necessarily for elite court performance anymore. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 6 is more of a tank than a Jordan 3 or 5. It's less about sleek curves and more about structured, geometric panels. The cushioning setup is similar to the 5, but the 6's ankle feel is more restrictive—in a protective way. If you have wider feet, you might prefer the roomier toebox of the 6 over some earlier models. 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.
