Performance basketball players should obviously avoid these for hooping. If you prefer low-top or minimalist sneakers, the "Jordan 6's" bulky profile isn't for you. It's about style and heritage, not modern tech. Now, a potential con: the comfort. If you're used to modern, super-soft sneakers, the Jordan 6 might feel stiff. The break-in period is real. Also, that padded tongue can feel a bit restrictive for some. It's not for everyone, especially if you prioritize cloud-like comfort. On foot now, and the fit is true to size for me. The Air Jordan 6 has a snug, secure lockdown, especially around the ankle collar. It's not the lightest shoe, you definitely feel its presence, but the cushioning... it's firm. Don't expect crazy bounce, it's more about stability. A classic feel, for sure. So, is it worth the $200? For me, yes. You're paying for heritage, quality materials, and an undeniably cool look. The Nike Air Jordan 6 isn't trying to be the most advanced shoe today; it's honoring its legacy. And it does that job perfectly.
