The nubuck upper on this 'Infrared' colorway is tough and should hold up well. The overall construction of this Air Jordan 6 feels like it can take a beating, which is great for casual wear. It's a well-made retro, no question. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Jordan 6" sits differently than, say, a "Jordan 1". It's more of a mid-top, bulky basketball silhouette from the '90s. Versus a "Jordan 11", the 6 is less about sleekness and more about that rugged, defined look. I think the 6 has its own unique charm in the "Jordan series" that hasn't been overdone. Let's talk about the on-foot feel. Slipping these Air Jordan 6s on, the fit is true to size for me. The ankle collar gives that classic, locked-in feel. It's not the most plush ride by today's standards—you can feel the Air unit, but it's firm. For $200 USD, you're paying for the legacy and look, not necessarily groundbreaking comfort. Just being real with you. On feet, the design is just timeless. The 'Infrared' hits on the midsole and the tongue tab are so vibrant. They look even better in person than in pictures. The way the light catches the materials? "Chef's kiss". This is a shoe that gets compliments every time I wear it out.
