Just because you won’t be attending school this summer doesn’t mean you’ll have a break from getting up early and filing into a huge public building filled with your peers. To the contrary, you might end up filling the dog days with a job so you can keep up with the other Jordanheads lining up to cop heat this Olympic summer. We’ll be getting two each of the Air Jordan VI and Air Jordan VII Retros as both models’ ‘Olympic’ colorups return along with a brand new ‘Gold Medal’ Package that’ll become the first double-drop since 2010′s ‘Raging Bull’ DMP (a duo that produced the Sneaker News readers’ choice for the greatest non-OG Air Jordan colorway ever). The first two are already certified classics; will the ‘Gold Medal’ Pack join them in your Mt. Rushomre of Air Jordans? Let us know which of these is a must-have this summer and stick with Sneaker News as we approach one heckuva six-week stretch in July/August. Photos: 23penny

og or not og if you missin out onthat gold medal pacc your a fool...think about it how often does jb do that? and wen u think about it 350 divided by 2 is 175 thatz how much it cost for a pair of jays anywayz....you jus basically buying 2 solo js at tha sane tyme its jus lyke payin 175 bacc to bacc lyke thy release a pair of jays every 2 weeks....yall bbe killn me wit all this whining jus say u cant afford it shit dnt put down tha gold medal pacc because they really are NICE
I need white laces on those 6s
ill take those two 1s in the background
No the gold medals are a pack you have to get both...and i cant wait! :)
The 6s definitely! And if I can afford, the GM pack.
can you get just one pair of the gold medals individualy
the Gold pack 7s look horrible,
Those gold laces in the 7's tho
Copping the Olympic 7s. & the Gold Medal 7s in GS.
HIGH!! I'M COPPIN ALL 4 DEM JOINTZ..
not feelin the package..i am not a vi fan and the two-toned vii kills it for me..either make the shoe all nubuck or all leather..not half and half..as long as the charcoals/raptors are all black upper...count me in!
man i cant wait to cop all
that lace job on the gold medal 7s is Horrid. I want the package though, even though it'll probably be a civil war to get it.
The gold pack looks like some fake jordans you can find on one of the knock off Jordan websites.
I NEED THAT PACK NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The package 6s need white laces and the package 7s need black laces. Even tho they will be an easy cop.
That gold pack is just a gimmick, the 6s are dope, but I will have no problem skipping out on those. Or at the least copping it just for the 6s and selling the 7s which is what most of us is thinking lol
the 7s golds looks HOT
Gold Medal 6's are everything.
If those 7s come with those laces im putting black ones asap.
That Gold Metal pack is the easiest pass in 2012 the colorway is no bueno smh
The Gold medal pack will be nearly impossible to get.
please no gold strings in the 6s
The Olympic Gold Pack is cool but them laces need to go straight white or black they doin too much with the gold
i can see those aj 1s. i like those better than buying the "gold pack". im so ready to cop the olympic 6s
These are some bad pictures but I can alredi tell im changing the laces on the gold medal pack..the only shoe that looked good with gold laces are the YOTR 7s
not feeling the 7's with the gold laces.
not feeling the 7's at all
Smh 23penny is not the legit source for this. But those gold laces need to go!
Im Copping!
those "gold pack" 7's look a whole lot better there than in the last pictures.
I agree... the gold laces definitely add character!
Olympic package is tuff but damn 350?
Yeah that's crazy and that's before taxes for some people...... Better off copping the Olympic 6 n 7 and call it your very own "Golf Medal Pack" lmao
But that'll be $320 without tax. Small difference but not major.
I surely do not lol I only cop what's within my capabilities. Not every jordan with a jumpman is realistically within in my means. I have other priorities
Cant be too big of an issue if Nike and Jb are constantly raising their prices almost every yr and yet you still purchase em.
Both pair of the olympic 6s and 7s are 160. 320 gor both without tax and 352 with tax. Gold pack is 350 without tax and 385 with tax. the difference: $33 you a-hole. so again as I said Its a small difference (only $33) but nothing major if you decide to cop the gold pack or just both olympics.
well you figure the infrared pack was 40 bucks less than 350 and jordan knows they are going to resell for more then double... small price to pay if you REALLY want them
$50.00 is a small difference? lol
If your just getting the pack, it's a small difference. However, Who is actually gonna skip to Og's for this pack?
no idiot its 350 with taxes and depending on where u live yo gonna pay almost 400 I'm from chicago the tav here is 10% so people over here gonna pay about 385 with taxes
Holy potato cam!! Somebody get me some visine
Fav J is the 6 for me, but that 7 is looking nice outa the two frm the pack........ How the f*** can we afford all this in a month lol...... lone me some cash mj, after all we been thru lol
ummm...noo! no thanks on the gold medal pack! sorry not going through all hell to get some SHOES when i could get the Olympic 6s, and 7s much easier then the pack..sorry...really...and then on top of that! the Olympic Cws are sooo much better! comon now! ive thought this over many times..not even worth it for the pack really...not ganna spend almost 800$ on SHOES in 2months!?!?! really?!!? sorry i got more important things do do il cop the Olympics keep the over priced pack...SMH
Is it me or did they switch the midsole on the white/gold 6's from earlier pics shown around sneaker websites? They already switched the midsole on the midnight olympic 6's... JB getting sloppier and sloppier... Not to mention the trash they called the playoffs that just dropped... Nike needs a serious boycott or shit is just gonna get worse
OLYMPIC 6's > OLYMPIC 7's... EASY.
