2019 All Star Black Infrared Air Jordan 6

[zombiejohnny]

They haven't yet, I still wear a few older shoes from time to time. I wear my white and my black 2010 VIs a lot. I actually wore my Black and red 11s from 2001 last year and they could use some glue, lol. So they are retired now. I wear my jordan 5 fire red black tongues from 2013 all the time, no issues. The shoes hold up a lot longer than people think.

Well the key to older kicks is to wear em every so often! By doing this the sneakers hold up much longer. Having said that, 5's, 6's and 11's are like tanks. They hold up for years and years without any issues.

These are one of the only 6's I can say that don't feel like bricks on feet.

Thems n the electric greens; won't stop wearing those.
Even the dmps still chilling.

 

[slaughterx]

DMPs are very comfy... all my 6s are really.

Don't have ELectric Greens but the DMP's were pretty comfy.

Idk if you owned the white infrared 6's from 2014 but those legit feel like boats/ bricks on feet.

*if you wear them

I think that is the key. I really need to unDS some of my "grails" that will eventually fall apartNeed to **** or get off the pot soon tho.

Ya I still haven’t worn my Concords.. Keep saying that i’m going to but still haven’t.

3s are my favorite silhouette. But these are the absolute greatest of them all. God I love em!

Correct placement of the lace lock on the last few pictures. Well done fellas.

So to wear them at the bottom most row is incorrect? lol.. just kidding man.. Grew up in NYC.. so we rocked them on the bottom row to show the lace locks off since the ankle area was covered by our jeans. Now in my late 30's.. love to wear them at the Ankle area.. just feels right.

Speaking of lace locks, what’s going on here? Looks like he got a 5 and a 6 lace lock on there but I can’t tell. He’s definitely doubling up with the top and bottom locks on lol

 

[AIR J XIII]

Wore mine recently as well…

You can’t really tell in the pic, but I lace mine to the second to last hole, then put laces through and let them dangle in front. Only for these and white infrareds though, all other colorways the lock is at the bottom on the first lace.

The Georgetown 6s feel great too

It's def a little bit regional if anything. Grew up in NYC and bottom lace was standard on VI's. Eventually saw MJ did it too a few years ago for the first time (pic above for the MJ did it guys ).

I'm not mad at the other way though.. probably won't be me but it's clean.

 

[1978S]

For whatever reason it just always looks so childish or corny when seeing someone wear the lace lock at the bottom on 6's.

Thanks for confirming its an NYC thing..

 

[kungfu koala]

Indeed 2007 BLK/Metallic Vs and 2010 Varsity red VIs holding up just fine.

Must be in the subconscious, cuz I left the city in ‘90 and went back constantly and I don’t remember none of that . Pic is from a couple of weeks ago. I think I did it just so I wouldn’t lose them mfs.

 

[5o'clockShadowBoxer]

1978S These are the only ones I have the lace locks to. Midnights, Maroons, Quai 54s all had them at the top, now all of em are missing

 

[All Ready]

I don’t use the lace locks at all

dont like how it looks at the bottom and they don’t stay locked at the top

but I don’t have any of my 6s anymore

I’ll def get another pair of infrareds at some point tho

 

[kungfu koala]

Lace locks add to the shoe imo. Always gotta have em somewhere.

 

[Girl Thats Jules]

Putting off white on the maroon pair was

 

[doublemesh96]

I remember when the 2000 pair came out my boy in hs rocked a “chain” with the locks attached Wildin thinking he was doing it

 

[headdetective]

Get you some socks b, I know them tongues cuttin up ya shins and ankles lol
