If you're used to super bouncy, React or Boost-type cushioning, the Air unit here will feel stiff. Also, the toe box can feel a bit restrictive if you have wider feet. It's a performance fit from a different era. 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. Sliding into these "Air Jordan 6s"... the fit is true to size for me. The initial feel is a bit stiff, which is totally normal for a retro. The ankle collar is padded and locks you in, no doubt. But let's be real – the cushioning isn't super plush by today's standards. It's firm. You're buying these for the look and the legacy, not for a cloud-like ride. That's just my honest take. Major pros? The style is unbeatable—it's a legend. Durability seems solid with the materials used. That heel Air unit, while simple, is reliable for all-day wear. For $200 USD, you're getting a piece of sneaker history with the Air Jordan 6 that's built to last.
