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. So, is the Nike Air Jordan 6 worth it? For me, yes - but with conditions. I love the design and history. The comfort is good for casual use. You're paying for the icon status. Just know what you're getting: a well-made retro, not a performance revolution. Try them on if you can. 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 "6" is more structured than a "Jordan 1". Cushioning is better than a "1" but less than a "Jordan 11" or "13". It's a great middle ground. If you like the chunkier "Jordan 4" or "5", you'll vibe with this silhouette. It's part of that iconic "Jordan series" DNA for sure.
