That padded collar can feel stiff and might rub at first. The cushioning is firm—if you want a super bouncy, modern ride, look elsewhere. Also, the price—$200 USD is steep for a retro. Some might find the fit a bit narrow, so maybe size up half. Comparing it to, say, a Jordan 1? The Jordan 6 is a bulkier, more structured shoe. Versus a Jordan 11, it's less about sleekness and more about that rugged, '90s basketball aesthetic. The toe guard and those plastic lace locks are unique to this model. It's a different vibe in the Jordan series, for sure. Alright, so I just got the "Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared'" in hand. First impression? The shape is "super" clean, and that black nubuck feels premium right out of the box. The iconic "Infrared" hits on the midsole? They pop even more in person. For a $200 USD shoe, the initial quality check seems solid. No major flaws on my pair. Who is this for? Honestly, if you're a fan of the OG Jordan series aesthetics from the '90s, you'll love this. The Nike Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' is a must-have for collectors and anyone who values that era's design language. It's also great for casual wear where you want solid ankle support and a bold look. At $200, it's an investment in a piece of history.
