Air Jordan 6 Retro Doernbecher Freestyle
Posted by Peter Sim | Aug 17, 2009 Jordan Brand is teaming up with the Doernbecher Children’s Hospital again to help raise funds for significant medical research and resources. Last year, we saw the creative vision of Tony Taylor Jr. on the Air Jordan 1 High, and now we have a first look at this year’s project, the Air Jordan 6 Retro.
The shoe features a dark navy blue upper with some interesting accents like the dramatic stitching and an embossed “06-08″ on the side panel. The rest of the shoe is filled out with a red tongue, heel tab, and midsole, along with gold inner lining and ankle collar. Just like the recent Olympic 6 Retro, the shoe also has a clear outsole. Other features include the satin/nylon inner lining and insole along with the words “What Time Is It?” and “Game Time!” embroidered on the inside of each tongue. No details on the release date, but like last year’s release, you can expect the shoe to drop this Fall. Check out the pics from Marquee Sole after the jump, and let us know what you think about this year’s collaboration. |

Aug 23, 2009 at 10:00 am
You guys are crazy if you dont think these are sick! No other 6 looks like them thats why they will be a instant classic. All the materials and elements make it one of a kind, about time Jordan did it differently
Aug 22, 2009 at 3:40 pm
both jordan 6 and lebron 6 have that same colorway, the only difference is that it looks better on the jordan’s than the lebron’s
Aug 22, 2009 at 12:06 pm
wow…. again jordan trys to ruin a classic

Aug 18, 2009 at 6:52 am
Replace the red & gold with somethin else
Change the color of the laces
Then maybe they would look better to me
Aug 18, 2009 at 2:16 am
likin the style, but not so much a fan of suede… but u know it’s a retro VI, so automatic cop no doubt.
Aug 18, 2009 at 1:10 am

Aug 17, 2009 at 9:53 pm
Not Bad!
Aug 17, 2009 at 9:27 pm
They reeeeealy need to break up the upper with some different colors.
Aug 17, 2009 at 8:48 pm
they are ugly but could be rare in the future
its a good investment
Aug 17, 2009 at 7:42 pm
they dont amaze me much nothing but special but it does feel like a clev. cavs away colors to me
Aug 17, 2009 at 7:40 pm
wack
Aug 17, 2009 at 7:22 pm
Terrible!!!!!!
Aug 17, 2009 at 7:16 pm
Ima get these for the children at Doernbecher Children’s Hospital. I dont care what the shoe really look like i’m going to buy them. I struggled my whole life and I don’t want to see another child to struggle as well. Much respect goes out to JOE SWANSON. Kids made this so they can raise much to live. I going to get 2 pair of these so I can see a smile on the children faces.
Aug 17, 2009 at 7:08 pm
Jibbycanoe, not to be an a$$, but its dark navy blue not purple
Aug 17, 2009 at 7:07 pm
Awesome colorway, I’d buy for the cause and the style. Props to whoever designed this one.
Aug 17, 2009 at 7:02 pm
These suck. But I did really like the 1s.
Aug 17, 2009 at 6:26 pm
red and purple together? not a fan of the colors but the other elements are nice
Aug 17, 2009 at 6:25 pm
The colors are nice, just change that fuzzy suede material to a nice leather, and these would be fire.
Aug 17, 2009 at 5:47 pm
These r sexy
Aug 17, 2009 at 5:30 pm
uppers weak, everything else is hot man. I would def cop these jordans. and plus its for a good cause
Aug 17, 2009 at 4:42 pm
all colorways of the VIs must be copped. imo the hardest Jordan to drop.
Aug 17, 2009 at 4:18 pm
Those are tough. I will cop if they release.
Aug 17, 2009 at 4:17 pm
Take out the blue and put white leather
Aug 17, 2009 at 4:13 pm
no
Aug 17, 2009 at 4:05 pm
These are MADD chill
Aug 17, 2009 at 3:58 pm
Hot steamed garbage…..Carmine’s, fire red, and Infrared’s are the only VI’s worth messing with….The rest are failures like these.
Aug 17, 2009 at 3:50 pm

”Dont Step On My Blue Suede Shoes”=Elvis Presley
Aug 17, 2009 at 3:07 pm
It’s the cause that matters most.
Aug 17, 2009 at 3:05 pm
to be honest,i dont care who designed them,it couldve been a dog for all i know,there still fresh as hell to me,all that ice alone at the bottom will make it an instant classic,im really feeling that orange/red looking tongue also,they look real defferent,and it being limited is a plus also,thats what i love,i dont like gr,then everybody is walking around with the same shoes thinking there different but there actally not,ill buy a gr,but ill ds for at least 4-6 before i bust them out,so i wont see everybody and there mommas wearing the same shoe i am.
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:57 pm
FOR ALL OF YOU COMPLAINING…THESE WERE MADE BY A CHILD AT A ILLNESS HOSPITAL AND THE MONEY FOR THESE ARE GOING TO CHARITY…SO NO HATE NEEDS TO BE THROWN BECAUSE JB DIDNT DESIGN EM…I WILL DEF. BE COPPIN JUST TO HELP OUT
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:48 pm
and to air jedi,thats why they make ‘’sea glow”,so you can make the icy soles on your jodans icy again,it takes alot of time and sun action,but your icy soles will definitely be real icy again,i tell ya,its to many new sneaker heads acting like there deep in the shoe game on this site,i could really tell by how yall act over 7,s, in here.
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:47 pm
havin mixed feelins. like em but eh
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:47 pm
havinmixed feelind. like em….but eh
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:43 pm

Aug 17, 2009 at 2:41 pm
wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow,now thats what i call heat,those are neck breakers right there,then they made the whole bottom with icey soles,im calling these ”cold as ice”,now for all the air jordan 7 fans on here thats real heat,ill pay $500 or more just for one pair,winter time is looking very good for my deep collection.
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:34 pm
Am in love
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:28 pm

Aug 17, 2009 at 2:26 pm

Aug 17, 2009 at 2:23 pm
The Upper isn’t that fresh, love the sole and the inner lining though
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:23 pm
def need to do more 6 releases…. damn these are too nice!!!!
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:22 pm
camtroopaz you retard, you clearly arent the first post. your the 6th one down. i dunno what is with this game where you need to say first but its really stupid childish and annoying. NICE KICKS you need to start to ban people who say fist its useless and makes no sense and doesnt contribute anything to this board.
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:20 pm
Those are fresh plus the years embroidered 06-08 on the side will def add some value in the long run and with the limited edition added it will be a hit….
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:18 pm
da shoes looks ight
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:15 pm
these ok
Aug 17, 2009 at 2:10 pm

Aug 17, 2009 at 2:04 pm
THESE ARE UGLY. I WOULD RATHER BUY SOME JEFF STAPLE x AIRWALK TERRAINS. IN PURPLE CHARCOAL AND ORANGE TO BE EXACT. YOU KNOW WHAT? I THINK I WILL. GOODBYE.

What mr exclusive said
Aug 17, 2009 at 1:47 pm
its a good chance i wouldnt wear them if they were a gift, a clear sole can only get you so far, they’re still blue suede
Aug 17, 2009 at 1:42 pm
i’d get em for collectors purposes. never wear them.
Aug 17, 2009 at 1:40 pm

Aug 17, 2009 at 1:26 pm

I give props to the kid that designed them but I’m not feeling the colorway overall…
Aug 17, 2009 at 1:25 pm
TRASH!!!
Aug 17, 2009 at 1:23 pm
not feelin these at all
Aug 17, 2009 at 1:22 pm
The sole is crazy!!!! The upper is so-so. I’ll cop, this is bound to have some value even if just for rarity alone.
Aug 17, 2009 at 1:21 pm

Aug 17, 2009 at 1:03 pm
if i saw the cw on paper i would think it was horrible. but for some reason i actually like it…and the icy sole is sick. when’s the release?
Aug 17, 2009 at 1:01 pm

and the fact that they’re for a gud cause is even better
Aug 17, 2009 at 12:59 pm
Ugly colorway but the icy sole & satin net lining is fresh
Aug 17, 2009 at 12:57 pm
Ugly!
Aug 17, 2009 at 12:57 pm
Where can I get these??
Aug 17, 2009 at 12:54 pm
They’d look WAYYYYYYYYYYYYY better without suede but at least they go to a good cause.
Aug 17, 2009 at 12:54 pm
Straight garbage. I wouldn’t even rock these on the court.
Aug 17, 2009 at 12:54 pm
I love my 1’s from last year. Was lucky enough to get a few pairs. Wearing one out and keeping the others on ice. I hope the hype on this years version (6’s) stays low so I can cop a pair.
Aug 17, 2009 at 12:53 pm
Where can I get theses???
Aug 17, 2009 at 12:53 pm
What time is it?…….,game time! That’s awesome these are nice
