Cushioning is softer than the 1s and 4s, in my opinion. But it's not as plush or tech-heavy as a modern Jordan like the 34 or 35. It's a great middle ground. If you love 90s basketball shoe aesthetics and feel, the Nike Air Jordan 6 delivers that vibe perfectly. Now, potential cons? The tech is old. If you're used to Zoom Air or React foam, this will feel stiff. The toe box can be a bit roomy for some. And that iconic plastic lace locks? They can dig in if you lace super tight. It's not a performance beast by today's standards. Just keep that in mind. It's a lifestyle shoe first. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' in hand. First impression? The shape is "super" clean, and the nubuck feels premium. The black and infrared colorway is a classic for a reason—it just pops. The build quality on this Air Jordan 6 feels solid right out of the box, no major flaws. Really happy with the initial look. Wrapping up—this Air Jordan 6 release gets a thumbs up from me. It does what it's supposed to: delivers a faithful retro of a classic. The pros (style, build, history) outweigh the cons (break-in, weight) for most sneakerheads. Would I recommend it? Yeah, especially for your first pair of 6s.
