The Air Jordan 6 was released for the 1990-91 season. This season and this shoe was part of a defining moment for Michael Jordan and all of the Air Jordans.
Championship at last!
Every year the Jordan had played was a great one, but this year was just a little sweeter for Mike. The Bulls won the NBA Championship defeating the LA Laker’s in the Finals. Jordan again took home the NBA scoring title and his 2nd of 5 MVP awards.
Rubber tounge
What is there to say else than Hatfield created another classic. This time with a rubber tounge featuring two holes which the bearer could use to easily get the kicks on. He kept the idea with clear rubber soles and lace locks from the Air Jordan 5’s but apart from that this felt like a brand new AJ design for the Air Jordan 6.
Retro or a butchered classic?
Right before the retro release of the black/black-infra-red Air Jordan 6, pictures were published on webpages where it showed that they had reversed the midsole colors so that the red was now black and vice versa. This upset a whole lot of collectors and the word “butchered” was what would define this way of “destroying” the classic Air Jordan 6. Nike kept their ears to the street and made the Air Jordan 6 just like the original keeping their followers happy. There are several sample pairs of the “butchered” Air Jordan 6 floating around the sneaker collecting community, however, don’t expect to get these for any less than $500.The Retro Air Jordan 6 was the first retro Jordan shoe to be made in an olympic colorway. For the Sydney 2000 games, an Olympic colorway was made in limited numbers of 3000 pairs. Today, 6 years later, many Jordan collectors estimate that the number of deadstock pairs of the Olympic Air Jordan 6 is less than 150 or 200 pairs.
To celebrate the defining moment of Jordan’s first championship, Nike released a commemorative Black/Gold Air Jordan 6 packaged with a White/Black/Gold Jordan 11 sold as the “Defining Moments Package”.
