Air Jordan 6 retro “Carmine” - Nike Air - February 13, 2021

[alsa2009]

W on Hibbett's only L's everywhere else I only needed one pair so that is cool !!!!

Went to Hibbett to pickup and employee flat out said to the dude copping next to me that they were supposed to send them back but didn’t. The pair wasn’t majin buu bad but definitely had a noticeable pink tint. Dude asked to look at a different pair and they told him that was the only one in his size. Shameless.

Glad I went up to my local Hibbet to see if pairs were available. I was told a day before men pairs weren't available. Upon arrival there, a worker said they were surprised to get men pairs in after being told they weren't getting any.

Nike resorting to retailers doing last minute QC is a joke. Dudes are desperate enough to eat anything in sight at this point it's easy for retailers to just off them.

The only reasons the soles are probably turning pink is because they either used the wrong white paint or underneath the white maybe some pairs had red

Is the toe soft like the DMP’ & 18 Infrareds or hard like the 14 black infrareds.

It’s soft

Stopped by my closest NEX, they usually get all GR Jordan’s and the lady said they’re still waiting to get their shipment. No ideas when or if.

Interesting.

Still need another 13 but happy to have a pair considering I just offed one of my DS 08 pairs for this release.

People are buying DS 2008 AJ6s nowadays??

That’s how it looks. why you mad? Nightwings review says the tongues high

If you get a pair you will see. They pull up that high but dont stay up that high and it paints picture that they fixed the tongue height when they havent.

So like a lot of folks I struck out. I didn’t necessarily “want” the Carmines, as I have the last retro and I’m not a huge stickler on Nike air vs jump man. BUT, I am still kind of shocked on how these flew (resellers scooped up lots of pairs, but still), as Carmines are not a generally hype J at all. I’ve hit way more limited kicks, I mean I just hit the clots on SNKRS the other day. Oh well on to the next Family

congrats to everyone that hit, and to those that didn’t, unless stock was low (which is possible due to the whole link sole fiasco), prices should dip on these.

Im happy with my retro pair. Here’s a pic of me in my retros that Will Smith ended up reposting on his IG (the highlight of my social media life )

Searched all over Houston for a size 11. Had to settle for a size 11.5. Now trying to do a size swap!

 

[KanyIZZY]

Goat, Ebay, SX, are the new retailer.

If you’re reading this Nike/JB .. EAD.

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

I want the pink midsole. This release will be legendary.

 

[truenike81]

Got an offer for $285+15 in shipping think I'm pass not trying to spend that

Smart man.. just wait until next Tuesday-Wednesday. That same guy is going to eat that pair for breakfast when he can't move them for more than 265 shipped.

the plastic, i mean leather is really bad on these. stiff is a gross understatement. i have my 08 CDP pair and it's not even close. the leather is actual leather and it's soft. really puts things into perspective with the new pair. this new pair really is bad. the shade of carmine is dull.

I'm convinced nike is holding out for a whole nother round of OG NA drops, but with quality materials down the line. those will retail for at least 250. no one can convince me otherwise. what other reason would there be for them to FINALLY release the classics in "og form" with NA and trash quality.

 

[headdetective]

They can release whatever they want in the future....this is the last time im coppin carmines.

 

[headdetective]

If CDP’s had Nike Air, they’d be up there.

 

[kmart81]

until you find out your cousin got the pairs from “Mary” on WhatsApp

Nah she’s works at FNL so it all worked out

 

[kingweezy]

Just talked to a friend that work at Finishline. His Finishline and a few others are getting some more pairs next week supposedly.

 

[steven1562]

How stiff is the material? We talking 2014 Bred 6's stiff?

 

[jshortt]

Fire red Vs were on point IMO

Nah, there were definitely a ton of QC issues with them. Particularly the shock drop pairs. It wasn't as bad as the Fire Red 4's, but it was pretty rough.

 

[mr s j king]

Only want these so I can give my son the pair I have from the previous non NA drop
I'll be restock hunting for a 12.5 all next week

You brought up "Majin Buu"... Lol

I do not understand how Nike/Jordan's QC on Jordans be so horrible, but the QC on other retros be on point. Griffeys, Foamposite/Flightposite, Air Max, etc
