Cushioning is softer than the 1s and 4s, in my opinion. But it's not as plush or tech-heavy as a modern Jordan like the 34 or 35. It's a great middle ground. If you love 90s basketball shoe aesthetics and feel, the Nike Air Jordan 6 delivers that vibe perfectly. Comparing it to other Jordans? The "Jordan 6" is noticeably more structured than a "Jordan 1". It offers more ankle support and has a different kind of cushioning. Versus a "Jordan 11", it's less sleek but has its own rugged charm. Within the Jordan series, the 6 sits in that sweet spot between retro style and wearable comfort. It's a distinct silhouette. Alright, so I just got the "Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared'" in hand. First impression? The build quality is solid, honestly. The nubuck feels premium, and that iconic silhouette is just "chef's kiss". The black and infrared colorway pops perfectly in the box. For around $200 USD, this is a classic Jordan series drop that looks promising right out of the gate. So, who is this for? If you love the "Jordan series" heritage, this is a must-have. It's for collectors and casual wearers who appreciate a classic silhouette. The 'Infrared' is arguably the best colorway of the "Air Jordan 6". If you want a comfortable, stylish retro that gets compliments, you'll love these.
