First impression? The build quality is solid, honestly. The nubuck feels premium, and that iconic silhouette is just "chef's kiss". The black and infrared colorway pops perfectly in the box. For around $200 USD, this is a classic Jordan series drop that looks promising right out of the gate. 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. Let's get these on feet. The "Air Jordan 6" fits true to size for me. The initial step-in comfort is good, not super plush, but supportive. You feel that Air unit in the heel. The ankle collar is padded nicely and locks you in without being restrictive. It's a comfortable shoe right out of the box, which I always appreciate. Now, a potential con? The comfort tech is dated. If you're used to modern, plush sneakers, the firm Air-Sole unit in the Nike Air Jordan 6 might feel too stiff. It breaks in, but it's not a "comfort-first" shoe by today's standards. That's just the reality of a 90s retro.
