Air Jordan 6 “Olympic” Aug 3rd, 2024

Did anybody else grab these back in 08? :lol: Loved them at the time. Would probably still buy again if they retroed for the nostalgia alone.

These should be against the law

June month specials

JB used to release so many wack colorways

The lego colors weren't the biggest problem, it was they used patent leather and didn't they have some corny design on the toebox?

That design on the toebox woulda drove me crazy if i wore them. I woulda constantly kept looking down like I scuffed or damaged the toe box.
 
I liked those olympic rainbow 6s a lot at the time when I was in high school. They shrunk on me since then tho lol. The patent was stupid, and the toebox stitching was a nice idea but the thread got dirtier than the surrounding patent.
 


The sorry 2012 version always looked like bootlegs. I never realized they f'd up with the midsole color by tweaking it until seeing these comparison photos.

The 2024 version would have been much better had they kept the shade of navy as dark as the original 2000 version. The differences with this version is the shades of navy and red are paler than the 2000 version. The other difference is the translucent shade of the soles on this version. But I can actually live with that one.
 
I tend to prefer OG over retro + colorways for Jordans. But the one outlier would be the French Blue 7s. I like those the most out of any OG colorway for the 7s…Olympic 6s are a top 3 cw for that model imo, too.
 
Def made the red and the navy brighter. JB gonna JB.
 
One thing I always wanted to know about these is why did the OG's have those type of laces? I've never been a fan of that style of laces because they untie very easily but i guess thats where the lacelocks come in handy
