The infrared hits on the midsole and heel tab are just fire in person. The way the sculpted panels work? It's a bulky shoe, but in a cool, aggressive way. The Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' just has that timeless basketball look that works with jeans or shorts, no question. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 1? The "Jordan 6" is generally more comfortable for longer periods because of that Air unit. Versus a Jordan 11? It's less performance-oriented and more of a lifestyle piece now. Within the Jordan series, the 6 sits in a nice spot—recognizable, wearable, and with a distinct 90s vibe that's hard to beat. Who should maybe skip it? If you're buying "only" for all-day, cloud-like comfort, look at newer models. The Air Jordan 6 isn't uncomfortable, but it's not its main selling point. Also, if you prefer low-top sneakers, the higher cut here might not be your thing. On foot, the silhouette is just timeless. The way the midsole curves and the heel tab sticks out... it's a look. In natural light, that nubuck texture looks even better. This 'Infrared' colorway is a legend for a reason. It works with jeans, joggers, you name it. The design doesn't feel dated at all, even next to newer models.
