First impression out of the box? The build quality is solid, man. That iconic silhouette is just "chef's kiss". The nubuck feels premium, and the infrared hits really pop. It's a classic for a reason, you know? Definitely a strong start with this Air Jordan 6. Final verdict? For me, the Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' is a definite cop. The pros—iconic look, solid materials, good ankle support—far outweigh the cons for my style. It's a wearable piece of history. Just go in knowing it's about style and heritage, not cutting-edge tech. Putting these Air Jordan 6s on for the first time... the fit is pretty true to size for me. The ankle collar is high, giving that locked-in feel, which I appreciate for basketball or just casual wear. They're not the lightest shoe in the Jordan series, but you can feel the support. The cushioning from the visible Air unit is decent—it's comfortable, but don't expect Boost-level softness, okay? Now, potential cons... The toe box can feel a bit rigid initially. It needs a break-in period. Also, if you're used to ultra-soft, react-like cushioning, the "Air Jordan 6" might feel too firm. The price, at $200 USD, is standard for Retros, but it's still an investment. Not everyone will love the higher collar around the ankle.
