First impression? The shape is "super" clean, and that black nubuck feels premium right out of the box. The iconic "Infrared" hits on the midsole? They pop even more in person. For a $200 USD shoe, the initial quality check seems solid. No major flaws on my pair. 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. Who might want to skip it? If you're seeking cutting-edge comfort or performance for basketball, look elsewhere. Also, if you prefer minimal, low-profile sneakers, the "Nike Air Jordan 6"'s chunkier profile might not be your style. It's a specific look and feel that doesn't appeal to everyone, and that's okay. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' in hand. First thing I notice? The build quality is solid, man. The nubuck feels premium right out of the box. That iconic silhouette, with the visible Air unit and the plastic lace locks, it's just a classic. For around $200 USD, this Jordan 6 release feels worth it so far. Let's get these on feet.
