Jordan Retro 6 "Maroon" - Dec. 5, 2015 ($220)

These were the 2nd Jordan i ever had in 1991. Loved them. But actually wanted the other colorways way more. Specifically the black infrareds. Dope shoe. But i guess i still don't get the hype behind them.

Yes I know they never been retroed. But still. I never thought they were that amazing. Shame they didnt give the sport blue proper leather and this style treatment

The hype behind these comes from the NA branding and also it is being retroed for the first time.  Though it's a mostly white shoe (with different color whites; doesn't really matter to me) the maroon color would be difficult to wear sometimes (just my opinion, could just wear a white shirt or something to go with it).
 
That's why it's A retro OG NA Maroon VI Fam. Just because the NA branding on the back heel/insole and with clear soles, did you really think NIKE/JB were gonna give us the OG Material & Color's exact 2 OG status also. Did you? Every time the same retro makes it's turn back in the cycle it's gonna different. Who knows next time they retro will probably get the off-white leather and correct Maroon, but don't expect icy-soles and NA branding.

I don't think these will be as hard to get as people think, think most of the hype we see is just in here. it's still an all white shoe and resellers are gonna suffer like they did with the C&C 7s
 
Not too bad so far. I recognized the shade of the maroon for 2015 pair is slightly different from original which I can live with. But I was never aware of the different shades of white honestly. I assumed it was all white. So the originals had different shades of white too?
 
Smh the shoe is all off white. Don't panic man. Alot of people on here jumping the gun and over reacting. All it takes is one person on here to say that there are different shades then next thing you know every one starts saying it. All this based off one or two pics where lighting/ filter etc. has obviously altered the picture. In person the upper will be all off white smdh.
 
Jordan brand does not make shoes like they use to or use higher quality materials........with that being said I'm still considering buying a pair. They give me a 90's vibe and I digg it 8)





damn you jb
 
I'm sure alot if yall didn't get the infra 6 low earlier this summer. If this toe had the same leather it's gonna be great. It's not like last year's 6s it's really thick and plusher. These will weigh alot lol

Seen in person today, nike mistakenly sent a pair in preschool size to my hibbett store, they are definitely off white/eggshell, getting a pair for my kids, on the fence for my pair though
 
If these didn't have Nike Air on the back tab, these wouldn't even move like that. Overall, I'm not overly impressed by these pictures, but then again, JB always relies on nostalgia and not quality to sell shoes.
