The Air Jordan VI Infrared Pack will finally release on June 19th, and it not will be an Asia-only release (much to the excitement of stateside-shoeheads). Here’s yet another look at the packaging of the Infrared Pack as well as another look at the shoes. The emblem on the antistatic bags reads:
“MJ wears the AJVI to the Promised Land as he finally wins his first championship, earning both regular season and Finals MVP along the way. The coveted Infrared AJVI features a Jordan-debut inner bootie, signature tongue pullslots, Visible Air and a confident style that perfectly complements Michael’s new ring.”
Check out the nice gallery of images after the jump; we know most of our loyal Sneaker News readers will be copping an Infrared Pack, so the question is “How many?”. via itsshoestime.

JB is just trying to front these off as the original infareds, they not, easy pass
June 5th, 2010 at 8:38 pm

June 5th, 2010 at 8:38 pm

June 5th, 2010 at 8:38 pm

June 5th, 2010 at 9:04 pm
Oh Snap, that's my size too…
Can't wait to cop 1 pack, that's it
June 5th, 2010 at 9:11 pm
shit… I'll take any size I can get!!!!!
June 5th, 2010 at 9:20 pm
I can finally see the difference from the varsity reds
June 5th, 2010 at 9:25 pm
I really want this pack but I already bought the Blk/varsity red VI’s. I’ll just get the wht/varsity red. These are NICE tho!
June 5th, 2010 at 9:25 pm
now tell me thats not infrared……….bitches
June 5th, 2010 at 9:26 pm
This is the best pic I’ve seen of them they actually look infared
June 5th, 2010 at 9:30 pm
infrared!!!
June 5th, 2010 at 9:30 pm
is it just me or has this pack changed like ALOT as release date draws near
June 5th, 2010 at 9:32 pm
id it gonna come out in kid size
June 5th, 2010 at 9:37 pm
Yep those white ones are the shit
June 5th, 2010 at 9:45 pm
THESE SHOES ARE WACK, PERIOD!
.
IF YOU BUY THESE YOUR A HYPEBEAST AND A LOSER
.
IF YOU LIKE THESE YOUR A HYPEBEAST AND A LOSER
.
AND BEFORE YOU IDIOTS TRY AND SAY "YOUR MAD YOU CANT GET EM" "YOUR BROKE"
SORRY LOSERS, 1. IM FAR FROM BROKE, AND 2. IF I WANTED THESE I COULD GET THEM THE DAY THEY ARRIVE AT FOOTLOCKER IN THE STOCKROOM 10 DAYS BEFORE THEY RELEASE FOR BELOW RETAIL BOX PRICE… THANK U VERY MUCH! THE FACT OF THE MATTER IS THERE WACK, THERE UGLY, AND THEY SUCK!!! THERE NOTHING LIKE THE OG!
MOST OF YOU CLOWNS ARE LITTLE YOUNG 14-18 YR OLD HYPEBEAST KIDS WHOVE NEVER EVEN TOUCHED THE OG PAIR, AND YOU DlCKRIDE THE HYPE FROM WHAT YOUVE READ ABOUT THE "ALMIGHTY INFRARED" BE THE BEST OF ALL TIME BLA BLA BLA… LOSERS!!!
June 5th, 2010 at 9:46 pm
ok…they look brighter now. but now it looks coral pink? and still not nubuck.
VARSITYS FTW AGAIN!
June 5th, 2010 at 9:53 pm
Easy pass. You ain't fooling me JB.
June 5th, 2010 at 9:59 pm
Take it easy floppy… let people buy what they want. if someone doesnt hav the dough to shell out 400 for the OG's (that are pretty much unwearable anyway) and they want this pack it doesnt mean theyre automatically hypebeasts. and no need to brag about how early you could get these cuz no one really cares
June 5th, 2010 at 10:01 pm
@FLOPPY lol no one even said nothing to you bruuh , calm the hell down . and theres a thing called opinions . so respect them . you sound selfish . anywho , easy pass for me .
June 5th, 2010 at 10:04 pm
cant wait!!! hopefully i can secure a pair.
June 5th, 2010 at 10:14 pm
Well i am 14 haha, i would love to have the OG infrareds but i'll have to settle for these considering i was like 5 when they came out, i think it might've been pretty hard to anticipate my shoe size back then lol
June 5th, 2010 at 10:24 pm
Yo Ma G If U Dnt Wnt Em Dnt Cop Em Motha^^^^^ Uve Been Commenting On All The Retro 6 Infrared Pack Pages On Sneakernews Tryin To Hate On Em These Joints Tuff And If U Dnt Feel Tht Way F^^^ Off Ya Herd
June 5th, 2010 at 10:33 pm
You say being born later is like a crime. Yeah, there's hype beasts. But so what being young? Fucking MENTAL man.
This pack is a gimmick. I'll buy the retros with Nike Air on them for the same price for one shoe thanks.
June 5th, 2010 at 10:38 pm
Ok, i'm a hypebeast for getting what i like and what i have always wanted to get not everyone can afford og infrared's or 2000's.
June 5th, 2010 at 10:41 pm
Okay, first JB releases the Black/Varsity Red colorway and now the OG Black/Infrared colorway? I'll bet anyone of you walking down the street wouldn't be able to tell the difference if someone else was wearing a Varsity Red pair or Infrared pair because in all honesty, these are just the same shoe with a different tone of red. In my opinion, save yourself some money and just go buy the White/Varsity Red or Black/Varsity Red 6's.

yo lame ass who the fucc is u nigga u a str8 hater
June 5th, 2010 at 10:50 pm
Hey floppy dick, chill the fuck out. Nothing is ever gonna be truly OG. The silhouette is the same, just the materials have changed due to time, like your dome and its pea-sized brain. I don't get why you dudes get so mad; if you don't like it, shut the fuck up…I'm not all over your websites saying how stupid it is you suck dick and calling you a loser, cause that's your choice.

LETS GO!!! i was iffy about gettin the paack from the other pics but now im so ready. i got everything in place to get them when they drop. i wasnt able to get the retros from 2000 since i was like 7 lol. but im soo happy butim not a hypebeast. these are my favorite VI colorways. aside from the motorsports and maroons
June 6th, 2010 at 12:17 am
hahaha thats my size too and im just as eager to cop
June 6th, 2010 at 12:22 am
Why is everything always just black or white with u guys??? Oh "if u like these then ur just a hypebeast" or "if u dont like these then ur broke". U know, there does exist something called opinion. Yeah I agree with Lildragoon6. If u like these then get em and dont complain later unless ur gona sell/return them. If u dont like em, then thats cool too
June 6th, 2010 at 12:29 am
Oh look poop in a box and backed up by lonely sneaker dweeds….come on guys girls don’t care about jordans ….unlesss you aiming for the young one and you know tht ain’t right
June 6th, 2010 at 12:41 am
you too funny!!!! Why you care about wut lil kidz think? Who cares if they hypebeasts!!! Bruh.. I watched MJ growing up and he is a legend!!!! Let these lil cats get into the hype.. Unfortunately they weren't able to cop an OG pair. And you know for a damn fact back then nobody was buyin jordans!
June 6th, 2010 at 12:45 am
@FLOPPY. Idk what you wrote bt you did wasted time writing all that! Unnecessary! What a loser…
June 6th, 2010 at 1:00 am
Damn floppy…calm down. Floppy I'm 32 yrs old and yes I had the OG's when I was in school…….so what!?! Let these youngsters have fun with what I had fun with when MJ was in his prime (oooohhh the good ol' days…) I just want the whites… Don't care if they infrared or not. If your like me and had the OG's as a youngster then that reeeeaaallllyy doesn't matter… 6's or my FAV!!!
June 6th, 2010 at 1:28 am
@SLOPPY..MY BAD MEAN FLOPPY… nigga i got real OG VI'S and this infrared pack is way hotter than those bootleg varsity red VI'S wich prolly u copped.. so suck it chump… any1 can talk bout coppin early n dis n dat.. who cares bout "hypebeast". thats yungstas 4 ya.. im a grown ass man brahh .,. and im coppin this pack they way hotta than the varsity.. actualllll color way jordan wore not no hypebeast varsity red VI'S.. step ur game up son…. 1

June 6th, 2010 at 4:51 am
Floppy is known as "BRINX" at TSG.
This guy got 89 pairs of varsity red pairs for resale, HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
June 6th, 2010 at 4:57 am
Been waiting for this damn pack. Got the blk 6 s already so they nfrared blks are going to be on wax. I don’t understand the hypebeast nonsense and all that shit. But if u like them get them if u don’t then get the varsity red whites. Same shoe. Just what ever is ur preference. Chill people. Wear the shoe and look good
June 6th, 2010 at 6:21 am
I'm not going to pay $600+ for a shoe because it's old. That's backwards if you ask me. It's just a shoe. I'm 18 and I buy what I like that I can afford, so chillllllllll…
June 6th, 2010 at 7:10 am
FLOPPYS RIGHT YOU GUYS ARE LOSERS
June 6th, 2010 at 7:45 am
thats only cause you got no money! broke-ass-biatsch
June 6th, 2010 at 9:21 am
i pass on the shoes waiting for 2011 season and for floppy aka sloppy u is the BIGGEST CLOWN ,C'MON SON
June 6th, 2010 at 10:57 am
Floppy you’re a hypebeast for being on this site so haha.. These look a lot cleaner still wish the black infras were nubuck though
June 6th, 2010 at 11:54 am
The infrareds look just like the black/varsity red.. I can't really tell the difference. What's so special about it anyways..
June 6th, 2010 at 12:10 pm
walmart!
June 6th, 2010 at 12:55 pm
I knew it as soon as I see the caps. Lol.
June 6th, 2010 at 1:04 pm
Floppy, go back to grammar school. It's THEY'RE WACK, THEY'RE UGLY, Loser.
June 6th, 2010 at 2:13 pm
People saying 'hypebeast' so much like they just learned the word. You're a 'hypebeast' if you're on this site period. Anything and everything on sneakernews or nicekicks or solecollector etc is about the hype. So if you frequent these site … you're already a quote unquote 'hypebeast", there's nothing wrong with that. SMH …. it's like hipsters making fun of other hipsters all over again.
June 6th, 2010 at 2:21 pm
go back to wack ass TSG with this dude
June 6th, 2010 at 2:36 pm

June 6th, 2010 at 2:38 pm

sidebar: not saying the infrareds arent dope ive been trying to get them since i can remember but im content with what i have and can get

June 6th, 2010 at 3:04 pm
duuude… if you STILL cant tell the difference you're colorblind… after these pics theres no way anyone can argue that these look just like varsity reds
June 6th, 2010 at 3:09 pm
@ Brick – duuuuude… if you STILL cant tell the difference you're colorblind… after these pics theres no way anyone can argue that these look like varsity reds
June 6th, 2010 at 3:46 pm
u right, but if ppl dnt have ther varsity reds it actually around the same price my guy. so i wouldnt say a wast of money unless u do have the others.
June 6th, 2010 at 4:23 pm
thats not infrared.
nah lol but to be honest the black still doesnt look like its very infrared to me, the whites do tho
June 6th, 2010 at 4:34 pm
Floppy; The black infra’s were DURABUCK you idiot.
June 6th, 2010 at 6:10 pm
too lazy to deal with the hype. so i got a pair of the white/varsity reds coming in on monday. the only thing that would make me get this pack are those white/infrareds but it's not worth it to drop that kinda money. the black/infrareds are wack! and i'm sure a lot of people feel the same way. enjoy the meal hypebeasts hahah.
June 6th, 2010 at 6:22 pm
i like the black varsity reds and white varsity reds better than both infareds because infared looks orange and i like red better than orange (real talk all bs aside) and "FLOPPY" is the lamest person that ever exsisted; maybe the biggest hater ever whos just old or something and doesnt relize there the same f-ing colorway as 1991. give shoes the respect they deserve. and by the way YOUR A LOSER!!!!!!
June 6th, 2010 at 6:44 pm
YOURE A GROWN ASS MAN???? WOW YOU TALK/SPEAK/TYPE LIKE A 14 YR OLD… YOU MUST STILL WORK AT TACO BELL OR THE MALL AND ARE BROKE…. SAD OLD MAN, LEARN HOW TO SPEAK OLD MAN CUZ U TALK LIKE A KID… TELL UR MOM TO STOP CALLIN ME

June 6th, 2010 at 11:06 pm
Can you people please stop using the word hypebeast? You either like these or you don’t. If you are a true jordan fan then there is a part of you that really wants these. We all know they aren’t gonna put nike air on the back and we know that they don’t always use the same materials as the ogs but you take what you can get. People need to stop saying its not real infrared because it is. They are in my hands right now and they are indeed infrared. And why is this guy on here sayin “don’t buy these they are fake”? You are an idiot for real.
June 6th, 2010 at 11:16 pm
LMAO… TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION GROWN ASS MAN DOESN'T MEAN OLD AND WRINKLED BALLS LIKE YOUR BROKE ASS NIGGA….. IMA GROWN ASS MAN CUZ I HANDLE MINE AND GET MINE BY MYSELF FOR ME AND MY FAMILYY PUNK… IM A GROWN ASS MAN 23 YEARS OF AGE..

June 7th, 2010 at 12:52 am
youre a fucking dumbass. these came out 5 years before you were even born.
June 7th, 2010 at 12:54 am
Spoke to Frank at Wish and he said the only difference between the Infrareds and the Varsity reds is maybe a shade lighter. We all know these aren't OG and they don't stay true to the OGs, doesn't mean a person cannot like them and want them. I can't believe people get so worked up about what OTHER people want to buy. Hypebeast or not… just do YOU. If YOU don't want them because you don't agree that they are Infrareds then don't buy them. Why are you gonna shit talk someone else because they like what they see?
June 7th, 2010 at 3:39 am
Floppy, you're a stupid idiot. The pack is already at retailers in the stock room. I suggest that you're 2 of 2 that you mentioned you weren't. 1. You're broke. 2. You cab't get shit, that's why you type nonsense like a loser. Swallow the load bitch!
June 7th, 2010 at 5:09 am
FLOPPY – GTFO here. Just go and s* a c*ck you f***ing poser! You can't even type without any errors on your grammar. You try to come up here and act like you're above everybody but you're just a broke guy with no life trying to get some attention.
June 7th, 2010 at 8:09 am
All I have to say is I'm getting the whites when they come out on the 12th….
http://www.nike.com/jumpman23/index.html#/footwea…
June 7th, 2010 at 10:38 am
lol. i dont really like em. i already have my varsity red pack! but im gonna buy em anyway and re-sell. thanks for looking out on the packaging JB! gotta keep em fresh for tha next sucka that wants to spend that bread lol!!!!!!
June 7th, 2010 at 3:37 pm
man i gotta make sacrifices to get the pack my job is not getting them now i gotta pay FULL price fml -___-
June 9th, 2010 at 7:16 pm
Finish line is not getting them in thier store. Probably an on-line only release like with the motor sport 6s
June 9th, 2010 at 11:45 pm
Make sure you guys bring a knife or something with you while u camp out in line. cause theres gonna be alot of dickheads out there thats gonna try and rob ya' asses.
