The materials on this Nike Air Jordan 6 are tough. That nubuck upper should hold up great. The lockdown from the lace system is excellent—your foot isn't going anywhere. For a retro, it's built well. The iconic look is, of course, the biggest advantage here. 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. Who should maybe skip it? If you prioritize ultimate comfort above all else, look at newer models. Performance basketball players, obviously, should avoid. And if you're on a tight budget, waiting for a sale on this $200 USD shoe isn't a bad idea. It's an investment in style, not necessarily in groundbreaking comfort. Now, the cons, because no shoe is perfect. The outsole is a dust magnet, seriously. And like I said, if you're used to modern Zoom Air or Boost, the Air-Sole unit in here will feel basic. It's not a performance shoe anymore. The tongue can also be a bit bulky under pants. So, if cutting-edge comfort is your top priority, the "Air Jordan 6" might not be your first pick.
