The toe box can feel a bit rigid initially; it needs a break-in period. And like I said, it's not a lightweight shoe. If you prefer minimal, flexible trainers, this isn't it. Also, at $200 USD, it's an investment. Some might find the style too chunky compared to modern, streamlined sneakers. It's a specific look. On foot, the silhouette is just fire. The "Nike Air Jordan 6" has that perfect mid-top height. The infrared colorway is legendary for a reason—it works with so much. On camera, the materials have a nice texture that doesn't look cheap. It's a shoe that looks great both on the shelf and when you're actually wearing it. Now, the potential cons. That firm cushioning I mentioned? If you're used to modern, super soft setups like React or Boost, the Air Jordan 6 might feel a bit stiff underfoot initially. It breaks in, but it's not a "cloud" experience. Also, the toe box can feel narrow for some. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 6 sits higher off the ground than a Jordan 1, for sure. It's more of a mid-top feel. Cushioning is different too - less board-like than a 1, but also not as soft as something like a Jordan 13. It's its own thing. If you like that late 80s/early 90s basketball shoe aesthetic, this is a prime example.
