The Air Jordan 6 can feel a bit clunky. If you're used to ultra-light, responsive shoes, this isn't it. The traction pattern is simple and might not be the best for serious ball these days. Also, that price point - $200 USD is steep for a retro that hasn't changed much tech-wise since '91. Now, potential cons... The toe box can feel a bit roomy for some, so if you like a super snug fit, maybe go down half a size? Also, the traction pattern picks up dust like crazy. If you're looking for ultra-modern, cloud-like comfort, this Nike Air Jordan 6 isn't it. It's a retro basketball shoe, through and through. So, is it worth the $200 USD? For me, yes—if you're buying for the style, history, and that iconic look. The "Air Jordan 6 'Infrared'" is a cornerstone of the Jordan series. You're paying for a legend. Just go in knowing the comfort is classic, not cutting-edge. Comparing it to, say, a "Jordan 1"? It's a totally different animal. The "AJ6" is more of a mid-top, structured basketball shoe from that era. It's not as minimalist as a 1, and it feels more substantial on foot. If you love 90s basketball aesthetics, this is your jam.
