Air Jordan VI "Oreo" Appreciation

[futuredhughes]

Is it true that they used the same soft nubuck that they did on the Lakers?

Just wondering since I have those.

nope, its durabuck.

Overall good retro. Not many complained about glue, over painting,
paint chipping. Quality was on point! As for the comment from ninjahood
its not Durabuck.

umm care to wager? i own these and i own da infrared pack..da oreos are durabuck, and da infrareds are

that ashy larrry crap.

 

[dagreatist]

These were my favorite J I had but I got robbed for them somebody broke into my car for em ..... So comfy too

 

[ninjahood]

smh why couldnt jb use these same type of materials for the oreo v...joints look ashy

yep, VI's durabuck...V's ashy larry suede.

 

[Magic33]

made no sense for them to use it for all the retro+ VI's but not the varsity red or infrared

 

[anthracite8s]

ughhh my thirst for these has grown astronomically since this post!!! I had almost forgotten these even released

 

[dilly1031]

I hope these come back I didn't have funds the last time they dropped.

Pair of 10.5 on ebay right now, decent condition.

 

[dat dude chris]

I sold these to my boy brother in law about a year ago. I think I got them for like 125 in footlocker but dont remember exactly. They were nice but I never wore them so I sold them lol

 

[dat dude chris]

Btw they looked way better with black laces

 

[memphisboi55]

never cared for, still dont

 

[makc11]

very nice shoe mine aint in too bad of shape any pics with blacc laces

My pair is on its way to me right now. Couple more days. Can't wait to have them in my collection! My favorite Tinker design and a sick CW. I'm just afraid of the yellowing which seems to saturate and stick out so badly on this shoe. Gonna have to try some ice saving techniques on this shoe.

^^ yellowing is inevitable

Very underrated and under appreciated cw.
COPPED for less than retail awhile back and am glad I did.
Plan to break them out this summer for sure.

straight head scratcher smh.

[marcusellington]

lol I got theses still DS in the basement

 

[footsoldier]

^^^poor shoes, stuffed away in a dark basement. Let them live!!!

 

[jforce3]

I was able to snag these at an outlet for 100. I really dig the speckles and i feel like these had them before lebrons and what not (not necessarily a fact they just seemed to be the first pair of shoes with speckles that i had). These were my first pair of 6's and really made me fall in love with them. They look so good on feet..

Quick question, is $279 a good deal for a DS pair?

 

[scooterman87]

I bought these and forgot the reason why

Depending how bad u want them. I wouldn't pay no more than $250 for these myself and that's pushing it. I'd rather spend that $280 on something else.

I know what you mean.

I like them, but for $280? Idk.

I see what you did there.

 

[toughmoney]

Damn these released 3 years ago already. Time flies. Had copped some pairs of these below retail to sit on. Wish I had more than 2 left now.
