The 'Infrared' hits on the midsole and heel tab really pop. This Nike Air Jordan 6 colorway is just timeless. The design details, like the perforations on the toe and the textured upper, show up great in video. It's a shoe that has serious presence, whether you're just standing or walking around. Putting these Air Jordan 6s on... the fit is true to size for me. The ankle collar gives that classic, high-top feel and lockdown. It's not the most plush shoe ever, but the Air-Sole unit in the heel provides a firm, stable cushioning. You definitely feel the heritage basketball shoe vibe when you walk around in them. Comparing it to other Jordans? The Air Jordan 6 sits higher around the ankle than a Jordan 1 or 4. Cushioning is less soft than a Jordan 13, for example. It's its own thing—a 90s basketball shoe feel. If you love that era's aesthetic and don't need max comfort, you'll appreciate this. The Air Jordan 6 represents a specific point in the Jordan series timeline. Who should maybe skip it? If you're new to sneakers and want maximum comfort above all else, look at newer models. Also, if you have a really wide foot, the fit might be snug. Performance basketball players, obviously, should avoid this for on-court use. The "Nike Air Jordan 6" is a lifestyle icon now, not a modern hoop shoe. Keep that in mind.
