The sculpted panels and that perforated tongue are just timeless. In natural light, the mix of black nubuck and Infrared hits differently—it's bold but not overly flashy. For a sneaker from this Jordan series, the Air Jordan 6 'Infrared' has a presence that works both on-court and in casual fits. Alright, so I just got the Nike Air Jordan 6 in the 'Infrared' colorway. First impression? The box is classic, and the shoe itself has that iconic, bulky silhouette. The nubuck feels pretty decent right out of the box. For around $200 USD, the initial quality seems solid. Let's get these on foot. My final take? I'm really liking this Nike Air Jordan 6. It lives up to the hype for me. The looks, the build, the history - it all comes together. Is it the most comfortable shoe in my collection? No. But is it one of the coolest? Absolutely. For the right person, it's a must-have. Here's a major pro: the materials. This particular Air Jordan 6 uses a really nice grade of nubuck. It's soft, doesn't feel cheap, and should age beautifully with some wear. The toe cap overlay is also great for durability—scuffs won't show as easily. For a retro release, Nike did a good job here. It feels like a proper premium product from the Jordan series.
