First off, the box is classic. The shoe itself? The shape is iconic, and the black nubuck feels premium right out of the gate. That "Infrared" hit on the midsole? It just pops, man. For around $200 USD, the initial quality seems solid. It's a timeless look from the Jordan series. In summary, the Nike Air Jordan 6 delivers on its promise: iconic design, solid construction, and that nostalgic vibe. It's not trying to be something it's not. For $200, you know what you're getting. If you connect with the model, you'll love it. If not, that's cool too. But for me? Yeah, this one's a keeper in the collection. Who should maybe skip it? If you're buying "only" for all-day, cloud-like comfort, look at newer models. The Air Jordan 6 isn't uncomfortable, but it's not its main selling point. Also, if you prefer low-top sneakers, the higher cut here might not be your thing. Now, the potential downsides. The cushioning might feel a bit dated if you're used to React or Zoom Air. It's not a "performance" shoe by today's standards. Also, that padded tongue and collar can feel warm in hotter weather. It's a chunky shoe, so if you prefer low-profile silhouettes, this might not be for you.
