Jordan Brand’s plans for this Olympic summer are coming into clearer focus with recent looks at upcoming releases like the ‘Gold Medal Pack’ and ‘Olympic’ Air Jordan VII. The pair pictured above has one key advantage over these and any others that might follow in their wake: it’s looking like the first of all these drops with an early July ETA. The Air Jordan VI Retro ‘Olympic’ reminds us that JB still takes the gold even twenty years after MJ won in Barcelona, this slightly altered design (revised midsole coloring) reminding us that while times have changed, the spirit of this silo representing both an Olympic gold and Mike’s first NBA championship lives on in our memories. Check these out in greater detail below and let us know to which of the ‘Olympic’ Air Jordans you’re most looking forward. Photos: Marquee Sole
