It does what it's supposed to: delivers a faithful retro of a classic. The pros (style, build, history) outweigh the cons (break-in, weight) for most sneakerheads. Would I recommend it? Yeah, especially for your first pair of 6s. Let's talk about the look. This 'Infrared' color pops on camera and in person. The contrast between the black nubuck and that vibrant red is timeless. Wearing these, you get that classic 90s basketball vibe. Compared to, say, an Air Jordan 1, the 6 has a much bulkier, more aggressive profile. It's a statement piece for sure. Putting these Air Jordan 6s on... the fit is snug. They hug my foot pretty well from the get-go. The ankle collar is high, which I like for support. They're not the lightest shoe, but you feel that stability. It's a different feel from, say, a Jordan 1—more structured. Alright, so I just got the "Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared'" in hand. First off, the box is classic Jordan Brand. The shoe itself? The silhouette is iconic, man. The build quality feels solid right out of the box—no glue stains or anything funky on my pair. That nubuck material on the upper has a nice, premium feel to it. For $200 USD, the initial impression is pretty strong, honestly.
