Air Jordan VI Carmine confirmed for 2014

[indyman219]

I wonder how many pairs stores will actually get. I don't want to go to a Footlocker that has only a few and miss out at FinishLine who has a ton.

 

[maladeen]

Yeah. Good looking GM pair.

the pessimism on this site is at an all time high, just because he got it early doesn't mean its gm. If you would care to point out actual flaws then maybe i will take your word for it. That pair looked as legit as they come. 

 

[atlboi404ga]

I can't wait for this release. the best 6

DO WANT!

 

[futuredhughes]

Yeah. Good looking GM pair.

Did you just assume they were GM because he got them early?

A few weeks early at that?



You just mad cause you ain't got them.

WOOHOOOOO!!!.. I got them early from a local nike retailer 

I got a feeling someone is gonna get fired for selling them ahead of its release date..

Nice! I thought retail stores received shoes a week before they released though? At least you got them early bro and don't have to be awake at 5AM!

Does anybody know if these are hitting White Infrared numbers?

 

[vegetaray123]

Getting these along with all original color-ups that release this year...

VI's are probably the only transcendent shoe to come out of the Jordan line, aside from the 1's that is...Back during the OG run everybody was on this model...Grunge / Rockers, old folks, Women, thugs, athletes, you name it...These are like the New Balance 99x (1's, 2's, 3's etc...) of Jordan's...

evilimperial How's the leather? Is it stiff?

 

[noticesince97]

@evilimperial How's the leather? Is it stiff?

Hope its not as stiff as the infrareds

 

[brodel34]

i thought stiff leather was a good thing. high quality, less creasing. no?

Agreed. That would be disappointing.

 

[patb23]

Nah bro. Actually it's the opposite. Some cats prefer the stiff leather because it doesn't crease as easily.

 

[brodel34]

Nah bro. Actually it's the opposite. Some cats prefer the stiff leather because it doesn't crease as easily.

so if it doesnt crease as easy, how is it bad quality? just wondering

I'm trying to say it's not high quality leather.

Exactly. While I have J's with stiff leather, I'd prefer it being a softer leather. For those that don't know, stiff leather = super synthetic leather, meaning  it won't last as long. I compare these to my midnight navy VI's and it's a joke now. 

 

[tommyicerocking]

these are going to be worn everyone where i'm from....

these don't crease either!

Where's @RustyShackleford .. I know he would appreciate that PST.

 

[g money 87]

Does anybody know if these are hitting White Infrared numbers?

what were white infrared numbers?? i do know that these will be a very general release like the white grapes last year but the demand for Carmines is gonna be crazy

 

[evilimperial]

I dont want to debate weather my pair is GM or not, believe what you want to believe

but I can tell you this..

I dont live in the states

I purchased them from a legit local nike retailer

The pics will stay on this thread.. you guys can compare them when you all get them on the 24th next month

@Patb23  to me the leather is kinda stiff ..

imo the white leather material is very similar to the last aj8 bugs retro

their build quality is really good though..especially if you compare them to the xi gamma

is like night and day

if someone wants some detail shot of the shoes

just let me know.. which part you want to see

I'll be more than happy to help

Stores could get pairs almost up to two months ahead of release date. I remember getting the Rising sun 12s around the end of September at DSG and then receiving the email one week before release date about the recall on the insoles
