Also, if you prefer a super flexible, low-profile sneaker, the "AJ6's" structured build might not be your thing. It's about the vibe, not the tech. Now, a potential con? The cushioning might feel a bit dated to some. If you're used to modern, super-soft foam, the firmer ride of the Air Jordan 6 could be a letdown. Also, some colorways can be tricky to style compared to more versatile models. It's a very "specific" look. On feet, the design just works. The Infrared colorway is iconic for a reason - it looks great in person and on camera. The perforations and those plastic lace locks add so much detail. Compared to, say, a Jordan 1, the Air Jordan 6 has a much bulkier, 90s basketball silhouette. It's a statement piece, not a sleek, low-profile sneaker. Now, potential cons? The comfort is "retro comfortable." Don't expect Boost or ZoomX levels of softness—it's firmer. The toe box can feel a bit restrictive if you have wider feet. And that plastic lace lock? Some find it gimmicky. It's not for everyone seeking all-day, cloud-like comfort. Just keep that in mind.
