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. My final take? I'm really feeling this Nike Air Jordan 6. For the price, you get a well-built, legendary sneaker. Is it the most comfortable shoe in my closet? No. But does it make me smile every time I put it on? Absolutely. It's a solid addition that holds its value and its style. Now, a potential con: the fit. My true size felt a bit roomy in the toebox. I'd recommend going down half a size if you like a snug fit, especially for performance. The Nike Air Jordan 6 can feel a little clunky if it's too loose. Also, that padded tongue and collar, while supportive, can be warm. Not the best choice for super hot summer days, honestly. On feet, the design of this Air Jordan 6 really stands out. The perforated tongue and those molded heel tabs are such distinctive details. In natural light, the 'Infrared' colorway looks even better than in promo pics. It's a shoe that gets compliments, for sure. Compared to, say, a Jordan 1, it's a bulkier, more 90s performance look, which I'm totally into.
