If you love the "Jordan series" and the 'Infrared' story, this is a must. It's a straightforward, no-regrets pickup for that audience. Now, a potential con? The toebox can feel a bit rigid initially. It might need some break-in time for some people. Also, because it's a higher-cut model, it might not be for everyone's style preference—some folks prefer low-tops. And at $200 USD, it's a commitment, though pretty standard for a Jordan retro release. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 1? The "Jordan 6" is generally more comfortable for longer periods because of that Air unit. Versus a Jordan 11? It's less performance-oriented and more of a lifestyle piece now. Within the Jordan series, the 6 sits in a nice spot—recognizable, wearable, and with a distinct 90s vibe that's hard to beat. Final take? I'm keeping these Air Jordan 6s in the rotation. They're a classic for a reason. The 'Infrared' colorway is a must-have for any serious collection. Just go in knowing what it is: a beautifully designed, historically significant shoe with a classic, firm ride.
