Air Jordan 6 retro “Carmine” - Nike Air - February 13, 2021

[KanyIZZY]

Got my pair in from EB that I had some of you look at and they are indeed white. Thank God.. moved my pink pair but will try to hold on to them for comparison with my BSTN pairs.

1/2 down.

Second pair in. Wife compar3d them and said second pair is less pink than first. I'll put up comparison pics later.

My pair from GOAT came in today. They look pink-ish away from natural sunlight, when I looked at them in natural sunlight, they appear white. Either way, doesn't bother me. I wanted these. Maybe the tint will gradually fade away as you wear them like the blue tint on some of the newer XI's. Tbh, there should be more complaints about the leather. They could have and should have done better on that. The leather on the Maroons were way better than these, and those were 6 years ago. What is going on Nike? Overall, I'm satisfied, even with the price that I paid (and could have waited), but it is what it is at this point. I ain't posting pics, been done to death in here. Next phase for me is waiting for warmer weather and to decide home or road bulls authentic shorts to rock these with. Can't wait.

Does anyone recall the leather form the 2014(?) white infrared 6s? I recall those being mcdonalds leather; are these like that?

It's pretty similar to the 2014. I personally didn't touch any of the 2014 VI's because that leather was so shiny and horrible. I refused to buy them for the resale prices they were asking at the time.

Comparison. Pair #2 Is on top.

Finally got my pair from SNKRS...1 shoe definitely has a pinkish tint, and 1 shoe is Cocaine white. And it really doesn’t show on camera unfortunately. Is Nike trying to recoup losses by mismatching?

 

[Ryan26]

Got me a pair, went the eBay route. I’m happy with them. Gonna enjoy wearing these. The leather on the heel is very hard/stiff. Reminds me of the leather on the white and red 14’s, the first retro tho. The leather up front is a little softer

Pair #2 on the left

Pink tinge on left, pink tinge on right. End scene.

 

[noblekane]

lord take me now

so then what the **** is the point of an authenticator? The listing says nothing about any custom work on the shoe just listed as new in box

 

[alsa2009]

I'm starting to get pink eye from being on this thread...

 

[vegetaray123]

it sounds like it right? but in the authenticity faq it says this:

yet they shipped that ****!

Maybe they threw a pair of light pink laces on those things ...

Honestly though, that’s the strangest thing I’ve seen from the sneaker world this week...

 

[HellRazor1978]

Pretty happy with my pairs. I think the leather quality is a bigger gripe than the midsole. Outside ain't no one gonna be able to tell if there is a pink tinge or not. That leather though......they could have at least used what they did on the FR5. STRAIGHT to feet, they are comfy

They do have some pretty good comfort compared to a lot of the last 6s we've gotten. Your pair looks super nice bro. Mine has 2 different perks where the tongue meets the toe box lol. Still wear them almost daily love them.

 

[BigSparky1316]

This peek V is the only major flaw my pair came with. Sucks but I expect nothing less from Jb lol. Btw I love how deep the U is on the left pair reminds me of the OG's and the 7s.

 

[jordan4eva23]

Picked up my pair my pair from cousin (he scooped me a pair from Nike soho last week)

waiting on BSTN and eBay pair

 

[staffsgtdignam]

wow ebay **** you

Wait... are they saying you customized them because they either are or are not pink??

Bruh, you literally went through all the stages of grief in this post lol

Ain't no stages of grief over here man. I made a conscious CHOICE to cop at resale. After reading pink complaints and literally looking at people post pink tinted pairs they got on day one from raffles, I knew what it was so there was no surprise as to what to expect. I could have easily chose otherwise and not bought them at all. I'm not that guy to buy 5 pairs, pick out the best and sell the rest. No shots at anyone, I'm just not that guy.

just give it a few months, you’ll be punching a ticket to the pink club soon enough

The pink is already in the present.

 

[noblekane]

Wait... are they saying you customized them because they either are or are not pink??

no they are saying the shoes that I bought on ebay were customized by the seller in some way and they failed authenticity but they shipped them to me anyways. I wont know whats been customized until they are delivered to me.

the original listing doesnt say anything about the shoes being customized yet the authenticator marked them as customized but still shipped them to me.

the customer rep said even if a shoe fails authenticity check it will still ship it just wont ship with authenticity tag and it wont be deemed authentic

which contradicts the whole point of authenticators and the whole ****ing system if they are going to let non authentic shoes through.

Just finally got around to looking at my NIKE pair. Team Pepto here smmfh. I was planning on icing these hope they don't get worst with time.
