Either a display of homage or an indirect way to rub it in their faces, Jordan Brand came up with a new colorway of the Air Jordan VI using the Los Angeles Lakers as the basis for the colorway. it featured a black nubuck and 3M reflective upper with a purple/yellow gradient contrast stitching on the upper for that LA appeal. Here’s a look at what could’ve been; this unreleased sample of the Air Jordan VI ‘Lakers’ features a full-nubuck upper with a solid yellow ‘AIR’ on the heel (the released version has alternating colors) and a white outsole (released version is black). If you missed the last opportunity to cop these, now’s your chance because theyare once again available from cigar0330 on eBay.
