See I think u are trying to force yourself and or maybe others that these are great. Maybe your pair and the pairs you've seen on here look good. But trust that there are going to be bad looking pairs. In case u forgot. These can't be great if there are both good looking pairs and not so good looking. I just can't see it. Sorry but these are average. Be honest to yourself NTers and quit lying for force feeding yourselves that these are hot.

Force myself? haha. Son, I like what I like. My 2 pairs of varsity reds are MAGNIFICENT. I've seen others' pairs and they also look great.I wore them today and they are comfy to me. I have nothing bad to say about them. Is that so hard for people to understand? A shoe is bound to look like crapno matter the quality. Its a SHOE. Maybe you should cop a pair, wear them out and then post your HONEST opinion. Who's really forcing themselves to have ablind opinion not to mention, to be biased here? I think it's you because you don't WANT to like the shoes for whatever reason. That's fine,it's your prerogative. Plain and simple, you don't $#@^ what I eat and vice versa. People are going to post their opinions and experiences regardless.Let's keep it moving.

Retro "Last Shot" XIV's had very ashy inconsistency, while others looked good.

Stealth XX3, same result, CDP and OG 17's, and 18's.

No one complained then. Every suede shoe will have inconsistent pairs.

We're talking about nubuck and suede. The XII's were leather.

Ok but to counter your statement, I was only comparing the last two releases. And the 6s are more cherished as a numbered Jordan than the xivs xviiis and xx3s

I can see that. 6's are top notch.

But still, these are not Infrareds!!! Let's call it a Retro+ colorway.

Glad you got them, did they try to beat you in the head or he told you $150?

 

[flappy188]

mine just came from ups, and the quality is pretty good, but let me say this. I have a fake pair of 6's ( my nephews) and when i compared them side to sidethe real one were seriously not to far off. I mean the sole is shiny kinda like fakes, the uppers material is exactly the same, the only differences are thecolor of the air pocket (Red on fakes) the Jordan logo on back(fakes is red with air in red) and a couple design ques like the lace locks are a differnet hue.if i had to compair the jordans in apperace to fakes side by side like i did, they are not far off, like i bet if i switched the insoles out and colored thejumpman black I could return the fakes in the real box and get my money back (unless the worker was a complete Jordan freak) so I'm actually on the fenceabout these shoes.. i like them cause of the nostalgia, but quality could be IMO alot better... I'm keeping them tho!!

wish i could post side by side pics but i cant till next week or so when i get my camera back up.
so stayed tuned for that!!

I'll do it before release date!!!

then you can make the decision, sorry guys! JUST IMO

:edit: i have been a sneaker head since 90, and im 30. so dont think im some lil %!* hypebeast that doesnt know !@@%, i been in jordans since they wereinvented! 6's came out when i was in 5th grade!

yupp

can someone answer my question tho? how are these releasing??? limited like the CDP or "limited" like the space jams???

anyone?

When they was first announce it was said that they would be limited but they might have changed it to a GR but... like i have said before that does not matter what matters is the area you live in if you live in a area with a lot of sneakerheads you might want to cop early in the morning on release or lock a pair up just in case

thanks. im from the LA area, best believe ill be up @ 6am to cop my extra pair

im just trying to find out if champs will get them. theres a low-key champs by my way that everyone forgets about or something. thats how i copped my friendspacejams in his size. i walked in an hour after they opened and bought em like nothing.

Damn, you're doubling up?

There's a spot near me too, that's very low key, that's how I got mine early.

The VI's have always been the most uncomfortable Air Jordan shoe, OG included, from my experiences with them.

 

[homer420]

im still debating if i should double up.

 

[corndizzle]

will be getting these

bdis, thanks.

that's funny, because the person on the top of this page thinks otherwise.

But I never had any issues with my infrareds. Just the, you know, occasional paint chipping on the heel midsole area.

no one complained about da last shot XIV's?

lol

those were panned for years over here....those were terrible

matter fact....at best, da best batches of last shot have da same nubuck as da VI's now.

 

[flappy188]

anyone know why these don't come with a retro card???

 

[harlemworld212]

I love these!!! Love them even more cause I dropped $150. Wanted to cop from PYS for $200, glad I waited.

 

[youngmar]

Copped today from Ace Athletic, they sold them early.

I don't know why people were hatin on these. The suede or whatever it is feels great. You can run your finger on them and not see a finger print likeearly pages were saying. The only real negative about the shoe is that you can tell it's going to collect a lot of dust and lint. Straight out the boxyou can see some fine lint. The jury is still out on how these will look after a couple months.
