Air Jordan 6 Inverted Infrared Sample
Posted by Nick Engvall | Jan 28, 2009 This Air Jordan 6 Inverted Infrared Sample created buzz on the net back when the Retro Infrareds dropped around 99 or 2000. A lot of people weren’t feeling them back then, saying that JB “butchered a classic”. Fast forward, nearly ten years later and a sample pair has hit eBay.
Judging by the current price of just over $5,000!!! People must have gotten over that butchered classic issue they had before. Looking at the shoe it’s a very simple variation from the originals. Only the midsole was changed, but I can’t deny that I’m glad Jordan Brand decided to stick with the original layout of the Infrared coloring. Thanks to eBay user gilou7 for the detailed shots that follow. |

Man some people in here are not to smart huh. Please read first before replying you might really learn something about sneaker game knowledge.
Jan 29, 2009 at 11:28 pm
can jordan brand please take note….EVERYONE AND THEIR LITTLE BROTHER WILL BUY THIS SHOE…..RETRO IT AND GET RID OF THEM FAKE LOOKIN’ FUSIONS…..AND STOP MAKIN’ THE 1′S EVERY WAY YOU CAN POSSIBLEY THINK TO….RETRO SOMETHIN’ ELSE IN 500 NEW COLORWAYS BUT PLEASE, GIVE US THIS ONE!!!!!
Jan 29, 2009 at 7:40 pm
What hmm… ? These shoes are legit. Thess shoes is listed on sole collector and air-jordans.com… On pics and tag, you can see they are perfect and authentics. If you find a fake of this sample (especially with this shape and quality, with a legit tag) let me know… I don’t know why they removed it, but these are legit.
Jan 29, 2009 at 6:45 pm
“This listing (220349535061) has been removed or is no longer available. Please make sure you entered the right item number.”
Hmm…?
Jan 29, 2009 at 3:36 pm
So many posers on this site though…
LMAO!
Jan 29, 2009 at 3:35 pm
Definitely a good they thing they never put these out.
I’m still praying for the white/infrared to drop, with the maroon and as well as the black/infrared.
Unless I can find a reasonable Retro, in my size.
Jan 29, 2009 at 1:50 pm
best color way of the 6s 2nd would be da infareds
Jan 29, 2009 at 12:33 pm
i would rather have the originals , these look just like the ones on the fake shoe sites , the o.g.’s had less red
Jan 29, 2009 at 11:43 am
Yeah these are definitely dope as hell. Real clean.
Jan 29, 2009 at 11:34 am
JORDAN NEEDS TO COME OUT WITH SUMTHING LIKE THAT THIS YEAR ALREADY IM TIRED OF ALL THESE FUSIONS..THEY R SO UGLY!!!!!
Jan 29, 2009 at 11:29 am

Jan 29, 2009 at 6:41 am
There are alot of slow people that comment on here. Read the freakn article. These are samples from 10 years ago. Some cat just decided he wanted to sell them. 5 grand, If I was him I would double that.
Jan 29, 2009 at 3:49 am
Wonder how they’d look with red stitching…??! Hmm…..
Jan 29, 2009 at 3:44 am

Jan 28, 2009 at 11:57 pm
They look cool….but nothing beats the original Infrareds….sorry. No way these, or any kicks for that matter, are worth $5,000.
Jan 28, 2009 at 10:57 pm
These are INSANELY DOPE
Jan 28, 2009 at 10:37 pm
these are clutch!
Jan 28, 2009 at 10:27 pm
Someone definitely did the right thing my sitting on these for 10 years deadstock and then pulling them out. Perfect execution as you can see by the price of them on Ebay.
Jan 28, 2009 at 10:23 pm
Amazing!
Jan 28, 2009 at 10:06 pm

Jan 28, 2009 at 9:04 pm

Jan 28, 2009 at 9:01 pm
That is way to much money for one pair of shoes. But they are very nice.
Jan 28, 2009 at 8:50 pm

Jan 28, 2009 at 7:03 pm
i think these are a sample from when the 6’s were gonna release back in 2000 so yea i wish these were coming out though
Jan 28, 2009 at 7:02 pm
Ooops i see..
I was in the office just web surfing.
Just read the title and thought it was new retro sample pix.
I will read the article next time.
My BAD my BAD~
But Air Jordan 2 Navy blue/Orange had NIKE tab on the back.
So, i was curious about what was going on.
Thanks for the correction.
Jan 28, 2009 at 7:01 pm
Question: So how does a Nike Jordan sample end up in France?
Jan 28, 2009 at 6:35 pm
Keegancartersblog.blogspot.com OG kicks ALL DAY!!
Jan 28, 2009 at 6:26 pm
hmmm ok let me get this str8 JB introduce tis wen the infrared release but he didnt release it cause ppl didnt like it and now he bringing out a sample and ppl r paying 5000+ for the sample wow but these r nice i would try to get em wen these baby release
Jan 28, 2009 at 6:18 pm
OMG!!! please tell d’s coming out!!!! n dey showed sum 2’s yesterday omg……JORDAN dnt fuk wit me bro
Jan 28, 2009 at 6:14 pm
wait r these a sample of the 6s tht r releasing this year?????
Jan 28, 2009 at 6:11 pm
I could see people wanting this just because everyone remebers it due to the outrage.
What gets to me is nowadays some people say they liked this version better, but also complain when another shoe isnt perfectly OG. SMH at the hypocrisy….
People just worship whatever happened in the past regardless of whether it was good or not. These sneakers are now older and not a new retro, so its OK to like them.
Jan 28, 2009 at 6:10 pm
I was hit with a wave of excitement at first glance…the words “Sample, ebay, $5,000″ sobered me up though…i’ll keep hoping JB retros the infrareds.
Jan 28, 2009 at 6:06 pm
sooo nice. what i’d do to see these in stores…
Jan 28, 2009 at 5:58 pm
for a minute i thought they were gonna release these and i was feelin good about the sixes comin out again but then i read such words as “ebay” and “sample” and all my hopes died again and speaking of 6’s this whole gatorade fiasco is really getting on my nerves
Jan 28, 2009 at 5:50 pm
It has “Nike Air” on the back,the way its SUPPOSE to be BYATCHES!!!!
Jan 28, 2009 at 5:48 pm
damn there are some dumb people on this.
Jan 28, 2009 at 4:41 pm

Jan 28, 2009 at 4:41 pm

Jan 28, 2009 at 4:39 pm
People on here don’t read cause they ask some dumb questions, the answers r in the article. Read first then look at the pictures. LOSERS!!!
Jan 28, 2009 at 4:22 pm
Soleman23 if you would have read the article you would understand that this is a SAMPLE from almost 10 years ago…. This is not a new shoe bro
Jan 28, 2009 at 4:16 pm

Jan 28, 2009 at 2:05 pm
My question goes towards the NIKE AIR logo on the hill
I thought new Air Jordan comes with Jordan logo since… i forgot when..
But you know what i’m saying.
How come it has Nike Air logo?
Good to see the old school classic look
Jan 28, 2009 at 2:00 pm
