Here are detailed images of the upcoming and highly anticipated Air Jordan VI Retro in Black/Varsity Red. While it’s not exactly the Infrared color we all love, Varsity Red fills its shoes very well. In fact, it appears to be almost an exact duplicate of the Jordan VI Infrared, which was last retro-ed in August 23, 2000. Then again, since when can a black/red color combo on a Jordan shoe go wrong? Simply put, it can’t. Sneaker News has also made available a high-resolution desktop wallpaper for you to enjoy, so check out our Sneaker Wallpapers section. If you can’t wait for January 16, 2010 drop date, pick up a Size 9 at osneaker.com.
Style: 384664-061
Color: Black/Varsity Red

December 8th, 2009 at 5:23 am
Looks cheap…
But I know I cant miss these.
December 8th, 2009 at 6:34 am
Shits look beat up
December 8th, 2009 at 7:08 am
Why do JB have to do this to us? Even if you got the dough for a 2000 infrared it’s almost impossible to find one in your size that’s wearable. Please at least try to make the materials half decent. It’s not like these joints are being released as cheap GR’s these will fly out the stores and cost real money. JB you’re killing the legacy.
December 8th, 2009 at 11:21 am
im glad im not the only one that isnt feelin these. the suede aint quite right and they’re not INFARED. which makes it a DIFFERENT SHOE!! im coppin the Infared retros! who cares just cause it LOOKS LIKE the OG 6s? gtfoh
December 8th, 2009 at 11:44 am
Suede???
Hmm, I’ll have to see them in person first…!
I’m 50/50 right now.
December 8th, 2009 at 11:46 am
They’re gonna be $150.00, right?
Jan. 16, 2010… I’ll be there to check them out.
December 8th, 2009 at 12:40 pm

December 8th, 2009 at 3:42 pm
im gonna pass on these and wait for the white/red joints…mite cop if i can get them at retail$
December 8th, 2009 at 8:19 pm
man really that suede looks horrible….it looks all beat up, but that sole is so damn icey…idk im still thinkin on coopin these
December 8th, 2009 at 9:48 pm
The suede does look a lil rugged as almost everyone pointed out but the thing that kills it for me is the fact that these wont be blk/infared. I think i speak for most of us when i say i have more than my fair share of plain blk/red j’s. Im 50/50 on these tho. Wouldnt doubt if these are on sale at finishline.com for like $109 by the beginning of march with most sizes available. Especially since most people will still be restocking their pockets after the space jam release on dec 23.

^ i’m 70/30 on these and why does everyone love the white/red and flu game 12′s. looks like one side of each of your feet is bleeding from broken hennessey glass. I’ll cop the rising suns before them pair.
December 9th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
hey we all want the infrareds but i think varsity red 6′s is alot better than no 6′s anyone agree?? are these quickstrike??
December 19th, 2009 at 11:52 pm
Black/infared…Black/Varsity red Ill take em. LOL!!!!

The suede on this looks worse than that of the True Flights. Shake my f***ing head JB. Honestly, I began to buy to buy Jordans because they were QUALITY PRODUCTS with relative SCARCITY. Now.. it’s become low quality bullshit with intense mark-ups. Shake my head.

My sneaker connect in BeanTown called me last night and told me to come gitem this morning… The suede is similar to the retro XII’s. They’re not that much different than the last retro VI’s that came out… They’re hot regardless. First in NH with these and didn’t have to wait in a long line at the mall. I’m happy. Catch’em if you can. You will kick yourself for having to settle on those Spiz’ikes that came out a couple of weeks ago.
