If you're used to Zoom Air or React foam, this will feel stiff. The toe box can be a bit roomy for some. And that iconic plastic lace locks? They can dig in if you lace super tight. It's not a performance beast by today's standards. Just keep that in mind. It's a lifestyle shoe first. Who is this for? Honestly, it's for the Jordan purist, the collector, or anyone who loves 90s basketball sneaker aesthetics. If you value iconic design over cutting-edge comfort, you'll love the Air Jordan 6. It's a piece of sneaker history you can wear. Now, potential cons... The toe box can feel a bit rigid initially. It needs a break-in period. Also, if you're used to ultra-soft, react-like cushioning, the "Air Jordan 6" might feel too firm. The price, at $200 USD, is standard for Retros, but it's still an investment. Not everyone will love the higher collar around the ankle. 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.
