I never saw these 6's in person (in my hands). I always loved my 2000 Infrareds. I took my 2000 Infrareds today while I went to stores to look at them in person.

I am a Jordan lover and wearer since 1996. I lived through some of the best 1st generation retros when the quality and shape was amazing. As a person growing up in the 90's and 2000's, the shape of the jordans were sleek and done right. The bulky look was not something people really liked back then. When the 6's released back in August of 2000. It was the best sneaker to go to 1st day of school with. The quality, the material, the finish, "THE SHAPE". It was everything you can wish for as a sneakerhead / collector. I am so glad I was into rock one and stock one back in 99.

Back to today - So I went into Footlocker , Footaction & Finishline to look at the infrared VI's, I knew there were some remaining.

COLOR - The color was the same as the 2014 (InfraPink). These are not infrared. If the 1991 was not pinkish. It was red. It was a very vibrant red. I remember them because my brother bought them in 1991.

SHAPE - Boy are these some bulky boots. You think you getting a nice toe box and sleek look. WRONG, these are just some hard material wide bulky sneaker that contours nothing to your foot. Unless you have some really fat foot, you will be swimming in them. 2000 Pair fits nice and snug on your foot and are very light.

COMFORT - These were very uncomfortable to walk in. I am not sure who said these are comfortable. 2000 Pair are like walking on air and you feel the nice soft midsole / Air unit.

FINISH - These 2019 pair were so sloppy with the paint, I didn't notice much glue marks all over, but the paint job on these are disastrous. The paint on the midsole design is bleeding over. Some heels had the red visible underneath the black paint. You have to be kidding me that you people are willing to pay $200+ for these. If had a taste of the 2000 pair, you would instantly return these.

The Manager at Footlocker along with some associates were amazed that I had the 2000 Infrared's DS still. He also asked what I think about the new release. He asked if I could take it out to compare and looked at the 2019's and also agreed with me. He explained that majority of the pairs were bought by the same resellers.

At the end of the day, there is a hand full of people who would understand what I am saying and they were on Niketalk back in 1999. Ya'll now generation sneakerheads see these as grails.. im sorry, the reason why the infrared 6's were considered grails is because of the the beauty behind that retro in 2000. It was a masterpiece. It was worth more then $500 for a reason. Now I am glad I walked away from these. wouldn't buy them at all.

This was just an opinion from an dude who wore Jay's back in the day when there was no such things as lines or hype. This forum allows me to speak my mind. I from time to time read y'all comments and see what the current trends are. Please don't troll me or take any offense, this is to give you an account from a person who loves the "Black / Deep Infrared" 6's

Exposed yourself with that comment and the 2000's were like walking on air.

I noticed people have this sort of child like view of things that were released when they were young. Memories are attached, and you associate that with them. Therefore people develop unrealistic comparisons and view the item to be more than it was.

Could have saved a lot of typing.

The funny thing is I can see flaws in the paint on his 2000's.

 

[spizike231]

Lmao, same color as the 2014? Stevie Wonder is that you?

Goin to footlocker with his 2000 pair like

 

[perfectchaosrei]

Is a DS pair of 2000 infrareds wearable?

 

[spizike231]

The more I think about that post...

Dude walked in to the mall with a DS 2000 pair just to compare.. then tries on the 2019.. with no interest in buying them at all.

Who the hell does that?

 

[spizike231]

Is a DS pair of 2000 infrareds wearable?

Hell no.

 

[sajeantet]

Takes 2000 pair to FTL but compares the 2019 pair to the 2014 pair lol

 

[you go boy]

copped 2 pairs from snkrs and sns... so still waiting on them in the mail and havent seen them in person... but for the people saying if you have the 2014 pair to not cop these i cant take you seriously and feel like you trolling... the same goes for the people who say the 2000 pair is superior... yes they are nice but the lack of 3m is disappointing... btw i have the 2000 pair stashed away that i never wear

 

[DB Cooper]

Realistically damn near every shoe has an imperfection. OGs did too. No retro is ever gonna look like the OG. Some have come pretty damn close and some have been almost fake status. From what I can tell in pics these 2019s are pretty damn close to the orighnals and I can’t wait to get my pair in hand.

Wait what? They are grails bc of the 2000 retro? No offense but you sound really ignorant with this. The 2000 retro was only made bc the og was iconic bc MJ balled in it.

And damn, the og's came out 28 years ago. No, this isnt an exact replica of it. But you know what, it's close enough for me to nostalgia over 13 year old me being the coolest kid on the block bc I had them and thats enough for me. Its shoes, it's not that serious to go over with a magnifying glass and see if its stitch for stitch like the og. I had the og. I beat the living **** out of them. I couldn't care less what the toe box looked like bc it was beat to hell after a week.

 

[pimpjobu]

I’m barely ever on here anymore other than to post outlet updates. I managed to get 2 pairs from the military exchange online. I notice some of the members asking what exchange it was. It is not the Air Force or army exchange or “aafes” online. It’s the navy exchange. Aafes never gets retro Jordan’s for sale online. You have to be at a bigger exchange that carries them to purchase. Think along the lines like Fort Carson or Nellis afb. Navy exchanges and marine corps exchanges carry them also but same rules apply like bigger exchange with more people stationed there. So in CA where I’m at your looking at navy base San Diego and Camp Pendleton to get in store. The navy exchange doesn’t get all retros online but do get some stuff from time to time. It’s how I got my 2 pairs of concords last year.

This guy @Xispacejam101 just came in....and will never come back.

That's some dweeb ish to bring the 2000 retro to the day of a new release with no intention to buy the new retro. SMDH.
