Release Reminder: Air Jordan 6 Retro Black/Red
This Saturday, January 23rd, 2010, Jordan Brand will unleash its first true retro of 2010 in the form of the Air Jordan 6 Retro for $150. We showcased this particular sneaker in our 10 Sneakers We’re Looking Forward to in 2010, and many of you agreed. The Air Jordan 6 has a lot of rich history behind it to say the least. For example, Michael Jordan won his first championship against the Los Angeles Lakers in this shoe. Although the original version featured infrared accents instead of the regular red, this is still a nice pickup for $150. Who else cannot wait until tomorrow? |

picked up the second pair this morning. Feet look like there on fire. If you never seen them on go try them out.
so stoked you don’t even know, gotta wait a min though, just picked up 3 pairs of new dunks, gotta get my money game right. hahaha
WACK. I’m wearing my 2000 Infra’s right now and have a big fat smile on my face.
Got my joint early I was the only homie in the store the whole fam got a pair in everythinh is everything
These are selling out right now, if you slept on these, too bad, you gonna have to pay over retail…
Sorry I passed. Im happy with my Carmines and the 6 from my DMP.
These kicks are straight fire by Monday every store will be sold out
the Champs I went to didnt have a full size run cause the workers were holdin some, went to finish line and was 1 of 2 ppl there, easy cop….i’m not complaining…nice retro
JUST COP’EM. THE STORE MESSED UP ON THE ORDER SO ONLY GOT THEM FOR $95 =)
Its not infa-reds?
OK, I really dont care because I cant find infa-reds by this good condition at $150.
Who cares.
Copped…for all the haters…you’re missing out…these are even nicer in person.
stop complaining and go buy man its just a darker red its still red u can barely tell from a certain distance you act like they put pink on the shoe man SMH @ so of these comments about the infrared and these
if you dont like buy the motorsports on the 6th its simple atleast you will own a pair of jordan 6′s i know a lot of sneakerheads that dont own a pair of 6′s
I prolly woulda copped but too much goin on, im savin up for copper and eggplant foams:D
Plus these arent even infareds SMH
dude these look good on the foot and in the front side of the shoe it has the reflective panel like on the og’s i like this shoe just wish it said nike air on the back
Jus coped my pair of 6′s this morning my mans at the store opened the door jus 4 me first in first out now imma throw em in da closet till summer while every body else shoes messed up mine will be so fresh -n- clean. I’m out peace ya’ll
Went to footlocker this morning around 9, no one else was there. Easy cop. My pair was nice and fit true to size. (size 11) if you like them then just buy them. If you don’t like them then just pass on them. Simple as that.
I just got mine…they are okay…almost cop’d Kobe V’s
Same here. I just woke back up from getting up early. Dude at FL let me come in this morning and cop before they opened. Like folks said, this was an easy cop cause there wasn’t anyone lined up. There was a little line at Finish Line but these might still sell out once more folks are aware that they dropped. They are sweet and they are in the closet though.
Bring on the Oreos. I’ve got a feeling they are going to go quicker than these.
COPPEDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Got my space jams
infrared
now purple foams
ahh life is good
pmjc88………….Don’t nobody care………….Those suppozed 5pairs u bought are for ur boyfriends, I mean who does that?, any grown man can get things for himself, But we all know how u like giving gifts out to men, like ur d!ck riding, to strangers at that!

I think the white and red 6s will sell out faster than these, but there not gonna be infared either.

GO F UR SELF HOMO!!!! BETTER YET PUSSY!!! NO LIFE DOG I SWEAR!!! INTERNET THUG!!!! ‘
Man I though these would be selling like crazy but i see all major retailers eastbay, footlocker, and the rest still have many sizes online and a few friends in different areas said there where small or no lines at the stores.
AYE WHAT IT DO R.I.P. MAC DRE!!! I’M FROM THE YAY AREA TOO!! HANDLE THAT MUTHAF….. THUGGISH!!!!! CAN’T STAND THAT NOC!!!! SHOW ‘EM HOW THE BAY HANDLE THIZZNSS BOY BOY!!!!! I’M DONE FIRIN’ ON THAT BROKE AZZ DOG!!!
i am such a dope. paid extra to get em early.
my boy texts me this morning – there’s nobody here!
and my size is STILL available online. FAIL.
Jus copped mine no lines at all. The dude at footlocker said they only sold about 15 pairs today. I thought it was gonna b hard to get em but not at all. These are straight fire tho they look so much better in person then online. Cant wait to rock these in the summer
i copped em. first one to buy em at finish line . yaaaaaaaaaa boyeeee
i am soooo happy i didn’t cop these early on vmv and waste $300. i saw bun rockin em at the goodie mob show in houston last week and i wasn’t impressed. went to hoh around 2:30 this afternoon to check em out up close, and i really wasn’t impressed. looks as though a lot of people agree cuz they hadn’t sold many at that point. easy pass, and in all honesty, i’d rather spend my money on the bred spizikes even with the odd blue accents and the copper foams. and if the black pair in the dmp is made with the same z quality suede as these, i might pass on that too.
pmjc88 Man, Damn, here u are again throddling more cock, asking MF’s for help, Quit grippin b!tch! U always shouting out strangers like they know u. UGhhh! U sicken me! Spit that nut out. This is a sneaker blog, not a place for you to be gagging over MF’s jizzz!
Love the shoes. Poeple where like damn those my fav jordans, def had people peepin the shoes.
i got em n i must say i am satisfied with my purchase…i coulda slept in tho instead of wakin up early lol
robocopped and happy!
sold out everywhere in 9.5 in the san francisco area. drove about 45 minutes away from the city to snag the last pair at a secluded footlocker. these r my first pair of 6′s, and i gotta say that i’m impressed. people be hatin’ on the suede, but it’s some high quality material, feeling like BUTTER. i recommend for ya’ll to go out and snag ‘em tomorrow if they still got ur size.
Went to my local FL @ 8 and only two ppl in front of me, kinda pissed since I got off work late and didn’t get much sleep and found out later stores still had my size at closing time. Oh well they fire! Quality is pretty good for JB nowadays and U really cant tell much difference between the suede & nubuck & the varsity & infrared. Thinking bout coppin’ a second pair to keep stocked in the closet since the icey parts are gonna yellow cuz I’m gonna rock da heck outta these!
pass on these 6′s, suede jus kills da shoe, oh well what can I say JB is jus messing up all these OG shoes up with different materials and color..
I wish they would have jus re-releasd the og’s but im too much of a fan to not cop these
got em. satisfied
Its funny. Many people says motorsport6s and oreo6s are fire.
Then everybody sum downs to varsity-red6s because its not OG colourway.
First pickup of 2010
I was the 1st person 2 buy them outta Champs Sports.. I live in Akron, OH, we don’t get a lot of shxt, the lady told me that they only got 1 pair per size….but that’s just like the Space Jam release here… We only got about 50-60 pairs throughout 2 cities…..BUT AS FAR AS THE QUALITY OF THE VIs, I can’t complain, I cldnt afford the infrareds whn they 1st came out, but now I can, so I can settle for Varsity Red….
I’m looking at some of these comments, and I have to quote Flavor Flav and say “WOWWWWWWWW!!!” These may not be exactly the classik #6′s from the past, but these are still FRESH!!! I had my pair 2 weeks earlier than the release date and I broke plenty necks when I rocked them. My only complaint with Nike is that when they retro J’s, they should bring them back in the original form with the Nike Air on the back and keep them the way that they were originally released as, but other than that, these are a beast and look great in person.
not sure if i wanna cop
Got em they toooooooo sick…dont care if people dont want em they eventually gonna get sold out…Just want to know when the Griffey’s come out!!!!!!
I’m pleased with mine. I will say that my DMP 6s which I wear exhibit the usual problems associated with thenubuck Jordan 6s, which is the cracking and peeling nubuck uppers, but SURPRISINGLY the midsole is holding up very well after 5 years! Hopefully, with the suede upper, the upper in these new 6s should be more durable than nubuck and HOPEFULLY AS WELL *knocks on wood* the midsoles will hold up well without cracking up after a few years. Again, with all the new technology, Nike and Jordan Brand owe us sneakers where the midsoles dont crack and the paint doesnt flake off after a few wears and the uppers dont get unbglued after a couple years. Frankly, I want my Jordans and Nikes to be abloe to last for up to ten years and be able to withstand reasonable wear and tear!!
THRE WERE NO PEOPLE AT THE MALL WHEN I GOT THESE YESTERDAY
SIZES 9, 9.5 WERE SOLD OUT IN THE FRISCO AREA SO I SNATCHED MINE IN DALY CITY.
After reading the comments one thing is for certain, the majority of the time online hype for a sneaker far surpasses the retail madness people expect. On the net fresh kicks sell out fast at double the price because the entire world has accesess to them. I live in Miami and rolled through FL around 3pm after a wild Friday and they had a full size run of the retro 6; which look iller than a tight red dress on Zoe Saldana. So don’t believe the hype and save yourself some coin by hitting up your local spots on release dates…unless you live in Akron lol.
People will regret missing out on classic shoe. Man gonna go broke this yr motorsports, copper foam, eggplant, spizike, lebrons, and holiday XI which version they bring. On my must have list.
Sitting on shelfs in Los Angeles and Nike.com has a full size run still
Copped mine on wensday they hot ppl hella tripping
I ain’t cuz I got both the varsity reds and infared passed down frm
my dad ds! The 2010 us hot to
Yo ppl when do the coppers release and whos going to have em in stores
Ok, so I bought these joints. But look at this suede! I damn sure won’t be wearing these any time soon with the kind of weather we have been getting up here! These babies going to have to hold out till spring time. Till then, I’ll be sitting on the couch with them on my feet once a month, lol.
gonna cop 2 pair and make one my everyday shoe.
its simple and clean.
btw! remember to clean the soles after wear!
Jordan needs to go back to Nike the quality in materials is a downgrade its like getting a benz with cloth seats.Nike is a billion dollar company and JB is a million dollar company and we suffer as customers cause he puts out shoes we like but they are overpriced and then limited runs on certain shoes DMP were a good look space jams too but fusions and not getting the 3s was a mishap plus the red and black 12s in suede yuck stop putting out shoes so fast and concentrate on quality. The world is all give your money but imma give an ok product smh
they were at every shoe store in the mall! i thought these were limited….smh
these are EHHH… its AL ABOUT THE MOTORSPORTS
Jordan VI’s aren’t that bad. I copped them Saturday easy. Can’t be too picky now or days. Wear it to Rock it! I gave up putting shoes on ice. Is it true there’s going to be a Jordan VI Infrared Pack in June 2010? Hmmmmmmmmmmm
beasty
all these people claiming the bay was sold out?! i rolled into nike town right around closing 3 days later still had a full stock.
gosh those are some sexy ass shoes who wnts to buy them for me for a free blowjob…..
ya jus d riders wat another person says ya say it to wtf these jordans go in
