The "AJ6" is more of a mid-top, structured basketball shoe from that era. It's not as minimalist as a 1, and it feels more substantial on foot. If you love 90s basketball aesthetics, this is your jam. Now, a potential con? The cushioning might feel a bit dated to some. If you're used to modern, super-soft foam, the firmer ride of the Air Jordan 6 could be a letdown. Also, some colorways can be tricky to style compared to more versatile models. It's a very "specific" look. Now, a "potential con": The toe box can feel a bit roomy for some people. If you have a narrow foot, you might want to try them on first. Also, the outsole is a bit stiff initially—it needs a short break-in period. It's not the most flexible shoe out of the box, which some might find a bit clunky at first. Who should maybe skip it? If your main priority is cloud-like, all-day comfort or you need a super flexible, lightweight gym shoe, look elsewhere. The Air Jordan 6 is about heritage and style, not cutting-edge performance comfort.
