The Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' is a legend for a reason. The quality is there, the on-foot presence is undeniable. It's a comfortable, well-made retro. For the price? I think it's worth it, especially if you catch it on a slight sale. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' in hand. First thing I notice? The build quality is solid. The nubuck feels premium, and that iconic silhouette is just "chef's kiss". The color-blocking with that pop of Infrared is even better in person. For $200 USD, the materials feel right. Definitely a strong start for this Jordan series release. Who should skip it? If your main priority is all-day, max comfort, look at newer models. Also, if you prefer low-profile, minimalist sneakers, the chunkiness of the Air Jordan 6 isn't for you. But for me? It's a definitive part of the Jordan series and a solid cop. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 1? The Jordan 6 is a bulkier, more structured shoe. Versus a Jordan 11, it's less about sleekness and more about that rugged, '90s basketball aesthetic. The toe guard and those plastic lace locks are unique to this model. It's a different vibe in the Jordan series, for sure.
