Performance basketball players, obviously, should avoid. And if you're on a tight budget, waiting for a sale on this $200 USD shoe isn't a bad idea. It's an investment in style, not necessarily in groundbreaking comfort. Final thoughts: The Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' delivers on its promise. It's a faithful retro of a classic. The materials, the look - it's all there. My advice? If this specific model speaks to you, go for it. If you're unsure about the fit or style, maybe try a different Jordan series model first. That's my real, honest take. On feet, the design really pops. The 'Infrared' hits on the midsole and lace lock are so vibrant in person. The high-cut design makes your legs look good. Compared to, say, an Air Jordan 1, the AJ6 has way more of a 90s basketball profile. It's a statement piece for sure, not a low-key sneaker. Who should maybe skip it? If you need maximum breathability or ultra-plush comfort, look at newer models. The Nike Air Jordan 6 isn't a modern runner. Also, if you prefer low-top sneakers, the high-cut collar here might not be your thing. It's about style over cutting-edge comfort tech.
