Nike air jordan 6 : Who should maybe skip it? If you need maximum breathability or ultra-plush comfort, look at newer models [nih2brii]

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. So, is it worth the $200 USD? For me, yes—if you're buying for the style, history, and that iconic look. The "Air Jordan 6 'Infrared'" is a cornerstone of the Jordan series. You're paying for a legend. Just go in knowing the comfort is classic, not cutting-edge. Alright, so I just got the "Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared'" in hand. First impression? The shape is "super" clean, and that black nubuck feels premium right out of the box. The iconic "Infrared" hits on the midsole? They pop even more in person. For a $200 USD shoe, the initial quality check seems solid. No major flaws on my pair. Now, a potential con? The comfort tech is dated. If you're used to modern, plush sneakers, the firm Air-Sole unit in the Nike Air Jordan 6 might feel too stiff. It breaks in, but it's not a "comfort-first" shoe by today's standards. That's just the reality of a 90s retro.
