It's also great for casual wearers who want a comfortable, statement retro with history. If you appreciate iconic colorways like this 'Infrared', it's a must. The "Air Jordan 6" works for people who don't mind a slightly heavier, protective-feeling shoe. Who might want to skip it? If you prioritize maximum, cloud-like comfort above all else for all-day wear, you might be disappointed. Also, if you prefer a super flexible, low-profile sneaker, the "AJ6's" structured build might not be your thing. It's about the vibe, not the tech. 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. On foot, the design just works. The silhouette is bulky in a good way—it's a statement. In different lighting, that nubuck shows nice texture, and the Infrared really stands out on camera. Compared to, say, an "Air Jordan 1", this has way more tech and structure. It's a different vibe entirely from the Jordan series.
