If you're used to Zoom Air or React foam, the Air-Sole unit in this Jordan 6 might feel a bit basic and firm underfoot. It's not uncomfortable by any means, but it's not a cloud-like experience. It's about that classic feel, not modern performance innovation. Who might want to pass? If comfort is your absolute top priority above all else, you might be disappointed. Also, if you prefer minimalist, low-profile sneakers, the AJ6's chunky build isn't that. It's a specific vibe. Try it on first if you can. Putting these Air Jordan 6s on... the fit is snug. They hug my foot pretty well from the get-go. The ankle collar is high, which I like for support. They're not the lightest shoe, but you feel that stability. It's a different feel from, say, a Jordan 1—more structured. On foot now, and the fit is true to size for me. The Air Jordan 6 has a snug, secure lockdown, especially around the ankle collar. It's not the lightest shoe, you definitely feel its presence, but the cushioning... it's firm. Don't expect crazy bounce, it's more about stability. A classic feel, for sure.
