The cushioning is firmer than, say, a Jordan 11 or 13. It's its own thing. If you like that late-80s/early-90s Tinker Hatfield design language, you'll dig this model from the Jordan series. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 1? The Jordan 6 is a bulkier, more structured shoe. Versus a Jordan 11, it's less about sleekness and more about that rugged, '90s basketball aesthetic. The toe guard and those plastic lace locks are unique to this model. It's a different vibe in the Jordan series, for sure. So, who are these for? If you love 90s basketball sneakers, want great ankle support, and dig bold designs like this 'Infrared' Air Jordan 6, you'll probably love them. They're great for collectors and casual wear. The price point is standard for a retro Jordan release. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Jordan 6" is chunkier than a 1 or a 3, for sure. It's more structured. I'd say it's closer to a 4 or a 5 in terms of that rugged, '90s aesthetic. This 'Infrared' colorway is iconic, arguably top 3 in the entire Jordan series. It just has that vibe that newer retros sometimes lack. A real piece of history.
