1. Stops Ichigo simply by grabbing his zanpakuto
This is one of the most thrown around Aizen feats. Ichigo is one of the fastest soul reapers in his universe. Keep in mind, Ichigo was still new to his own bankai prior to this happening. Aizen simply caught a powerful strike with his hand. According to Kenpachi in his fight with Ichigo. If you attack a stronger opponent, you will get a lot of pressure.
In this particular case, Aizen was already one of the absolute strongest to ever be an soul reaper captain. He was still wearing his disguise not even using his zanpakuto to pull something like this. Sure this is a part of his greater experience. But also he caught one of the fastest recorded bankais with ease.
This meant Aizen caughting Ichigo's bankai was met with enough force to knocking him out. Which is exactly what happens following this. This also confirmed Aizen can keep up with fast moving targets easily going hyper sonic possibly greater. This is more of a strength feat since Aizen used a little of his spiritual pressure to achieve this.
Eventually these two do get a rematch but they fight briefly prior. It was later revealed by Aizen, he didn't actually hypnotize Ichigo during this event. In the same chapter late in the manga, Aizen confirmed how he pulled a massive feat off. The same trick was used on Yhwach. Ichigo does get training in an unusual part of existence due to Aizen destroyed the cleaner.
In this very training, Ichigo mastered his finishing move The Final Getsuga Tenshou. Temporary Ichigo was both older & taller then he was prior to that training. Obviously when Ichigo does an training section, he quickly becomes powerful enough to take on any opponent he's focused on. In a few rare cases this didn't work like against Grimmjow or Yhwach.
My point is Aizen one shot Ichigo with ease in their first encounter. The second fight was brief since Aizen had his own plan going. Plus a lot of people wanted to stop him. Their final duel Ichigo finally wins against him. It took a few attempts to defeat someone like Aizen. Partly Ichigo won due to Kisuke's seal he carefully planted inside Aizen.
2. Aizen easily defeats Barragan who has the power of decay
Barragan was the original king of Huedo Mondo. One of the oldest living hollows in existence. Aizen was easily able to get him to suffer. This feat ended up being more impressive as Barragan battles several characters including soul reaper captain Soifon. It was revealed Barragan has the power of decay.
He also through that power has time manipulation where he can greatly slow down attacks. His resurreccion was that of his old self. His power of decay was greatly enhanced to where several feet from him would instantly be destroyed just by touch. Soifon lost an arm to this guy just by making contact with him.
Obviously this means Aizen's manipulation of all five senses was great enough to trick Barragan. This also means Aizen using his zanpakuto was capable of avoiding direct contact with his power. As stated before Aizen got a guy like this to suffer. Barragan was also one of the strongest among his Espada being number 2, technically the third strongest among Coyote & Yammy respectively.
In the end, it took a visored named Hachigen Ushoda brilliant plan. He noticed anything that made contact with him easily breaks down & gets destroyed. So he figured what if he could trick him into killing himself. So he gave up one of his arm on purpose using kido in the form of a barrier then teleported it close enough to Barragan.
Keep in mind, he put up a different barrier trapping him inside in order to have Soifon fire her bankai right at him. Which didn't do anything to him. The only possible explainable reason is he relied on his powers even in a very tight space barrier to survive. In other words, he was capable of slowing down such a powerful rocket with ease while tanking the little of the explosion at best.
3. Aizen was stated to have twice the of spiritual pressure that soul reaper captains have
There is a few examples with not many of them being actual feats. It was revealed that Aizen was constantly focusing his spiritual pressure while bonded to a chair. At one point, Aizen was capable of powering up enough to force some of his bond limiters off. There was a man who attempted to get his bonds back on but instead got both of his hands destroyed just by being close to him.
Aizen was powerful enough when a man got too close to him to end up crushing him to death. Obviously this was just a regular guy while the man who got his hands blown off wasn't. Just in know someone points it out, yes I will be linking Aizen considering to destroy the soul king's palace. Other than these examples including one from Arrancar arc, there isn't much else to go on.
I do need to point out finding the soul king's palace can be frustrating. It is technically above the seiretei yet in another plain of existence. In this plain of existence, there is five sections each belong to a zero division captain who rivals the original head captain himself in some way. Among them is the soul king's palace where there's only two methods of getting there.
Once again it highly implies Aizen had the power to blow that place up. This is probably his best statement relating to his very own spiritual pressure. It wasn't clear if this palace was more durable or not than the seiretei. Keep in mind, this palace is a lot smaller in comparison. Regardless, a few characters convinced him to not do it worried what would happen if he would've done it.
4. Survived after being absorbed by Yhwach
Aizen was able to manipulate Yhwach who had god sight. I am officially showing proof of it here. Just in case someone says otherwise. To clarify this was actually Aizen that tricked Yhwach into thinking it was Ichigo. He done this to give Ichigo enough time to hit him with his Getsuga Tensho. Unfortunately this led to what I'm here to talk about.
The actual feat I'm here to discuss.
Shortly after his temporary death, Yhwach rewrote the future again. Then he absorbs Aizen directly. Keep in mind, he doesn't gain his powers by doing this. It wasn't revealed until a ten year time skip that Aizen was alive back to his ridiculous long sentence. The Hogyoku itself gave him regenerative abilities including giving him an new arm.
It wasn't clear what the purpose behind Yhwach doing that to Aizen other than to remove him out of the way. Although Yhwach had god sight that could easily cancel out his power with ease. Simply by remaining activate during combat. My point is he survived being absorbed by such a broken character with ease.
Sure Ichigo with Uryu's help was finally able to kill Yhwach. Thus freeing Aizen which that part was never shown in the actual manga. What we do know is around this point in time Aizen was becoming a good guy. Yes folks I am not kidding, Aizen simply hated the concept Yhwach was going for & wanted things to remain the same.
5. Aizen confirms the last of Yhwach's spiritual pressure is gone
Mayuri's division had the technology to determine this same feat. But Aizen was in a cell that prevents the usage of stuff like kidos. Keep in mind, he is fully back in his bondage. Thus his spiritual pressure is restricted to a degree. Yet he was still capable of sensing the last of Yhwach's spiritual pressure disappearing.
This is impressive because not many characters within Bleach could pull that off. As stated before, a group of scientists working for Mayuri was keeping an eye on it for ten years. Aizen was simply able to sense his spiritual pressure was gone under such conditions. Now that's amazing due to the fact he was also focusing on maintain his spiritual pressure like before at the same time.
This is further prove Aizen can sense even a god's spiritual pressure. Even after Yhwach's death a decade ago. Aizen did prove he can sense multiple soul reapers at once back in Arrancar arc. All of this is a testament to his abilities & experience. I strongly believe I put up a solid case why Aizen would win against Madara in a fight.
