The black nubuck makes the infrared hits on the midsole and heel really stand out. It's a timeless Jordan series look. The design details, like the perforations and the lace locks, add that authentic 90s basketball aesthetic I love. My final take? I really like this shoe. It lives up to its hype for me. The "Nike Air Jordan 6" delivers on iconic style and solid construction. Is it the most comfortable shoe in my rotation? No. But for what it is—a piece of history—it's absolutely worth it. I'm keeping these in heavy rotation. Now, potential cons. The toe box can feel a bit rigid initially—needs a short break-in. And if you have a wider foot, you might find it narrow. Also, at $200, it's purely a lifestyle shoe now. Don't ball in these expecting modern performance. It's about the look and the vibe, not cutting-edge tech. Now, the cons... The outsole on the Air Jordan 6 is quite flat and can feel a bit slippery on very smooth surfaces initially. The toe box creasing is also pretty inevitable with that nubuck. If you want a super flexible, lightweight sneaker, this isn't it. It's a chunky retro.
