If you have a narrow foot, you might want to try it on first. Also, the traction pattern isn't for serious court use anymore—it's a lifestyle shoe now. And the price? $200 USD is steep for some, but it's standard for a Retro. Just things to consider. Who might want to skip it? If you're seeking cutting-edge comfort or performance for basketball, look elsewhere. Also, if you prefer minimal, low-profile sneakers, the "Nike Air Jordan 6"'s chunkier profile might not be your style. It's a specific look and feel that doesn't appeal to everyone, and that's okay. 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, say, an "Air Jordan 1"? Totally different vibe. The AJ6 offers more coverage and a different kind of '90s cushioning. Versus an AJ11? The 6 is more structured and less sleek. It's its own thing within the "Jordan series". I appreciate the distinct personality of this model—it doesn't try to be anything else.
