The cushioning might feel a bit dated if you're used to React or Zoom Air. It's not a "performance" shoe by today's standards. Also, that padded tongue and collar can feel warm in hotter weather. It's a chunky shoe, so if you prefer low-profile silhouettes, this might not be for you. Here's a major pro: the durability. The materials on this 'Infrared' colorway feel like they'll last. The nubuck is tough, and the overall construction is robust. It's a shoe you can wear regularly without babying it too much. That's a huge plus for anyone looking for a sneaker that can handle more than just shelf life. Who is this for? Honestly, if you're a fan of the OG Jordan series aesthetics from the '90s, you'll love this. The Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' is a must-have for collectors and anyone who values that era's design language. It's also great for casual wear where you want solid ankle support and a bold look. At $200, it's an investment in a piece of history. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Jordan 6" sits differently than, say, a "Jordan 1". It's more of a mid-top, bulky basketball silhouette from the '90s. Versus a "Jordan 11", the 6 is less about sleekness and more about that rugged, defined look. I think the 6 has its own unique charm in the "Jordan series" that hasn't been overdone.
