.. the "6" is more substantial than a 1, more streamlined than a 4 or 5. It occupies its own space. The price, around $200 USD, is pretty standard for a retro these days. You get what you pay for: a well-made, classic silhouette. It doesn't have the hype of some others, but sometimes that's a good thing. On foot, the silhouette is just timeless. The way the midsole curves and the heel tab sticks out... it's a look. In natural light, that nubuck texture looks even better. This 'Infrared' colorway is a legend for a reason. It works with jeans, joggers, you name it. The design doesn't feel dated at all, even next to newer models. Let's talk pros. The materials on this 'Infrared' Air Jordan 6 are great. Nubuck is soft, the construction feels durable. The history and look are undeniable - it's a piece of sneaker culture. For me, the comfort is good for all-day wear, and that padded tongue is a nice touch you don't see as much anymore. Now, potential cons... The toe box can feel a bit roomy for some, so if you like a super snug fit, maybe go down half a size? Also, the traction pattern picks up dust like crazy. If you're looking for ultra-modern, cloud-like comfort, this Nike Air Jordan 6 isn't it. It's a retro basketball shoe, through and through.
