Your rite they do look better but the main thing that's a turn off is the botched black pair

I don't know about anybody else but IMO black infrared >white infrared

And they screwed it up so that's why its a no go for me  I don't care much for the white pair so i may just get the white VR and keep it moving

Btw NYC heads these is all over the Bronx for retail i went to a few places to check out the white vars and a lot of places had these some retail some over

Thats the maroon colorway though.

 

[bigeli500]

Oh for real? Oh well lol. It's still pretty cool man. I had the black ones, but I doubt the box is floating around anywhere. I still have this because I used it for a project in kindergarten.

Held the pack in my hand today. The materials on both pairs are NICE. I held the V-Red VI's and the Infrared VI's side by side, and it was day and night. The leather on the V-Reds was trash, and the paint looked like Kid Blunder painted it. The Infrared pair had a thicker leather on it, and they had a different shine on the leather. After seeing the pack in person, I am completely sold on it. Pretty limited pack though. Only a select few Champs in the district are getting them, and a couple Footlockers. Good luck to everyone looking to cop.

BTW, is it me, or does the suede on the Black/Infrared pair in the pack seem more smooth/buttery than the Black/Varsity Reds. The suede seemed a little thicker too.


Hope Swoosh puts these up on the discount!

 

[zapatohead408]

holly crap those pictures are all looking soooo goooood. think i need one to rock and one to stock now.

 

[rauls054]

im convinced that im not getting this pack.from what i just saw.i wanted the pack but its not too much of a diffrence from the varsy/reds to much hype on this pack. jb has some of you by your cojones aka balls.ill just get the white&reds and be done

 

[chrisphreezy]

Like many have said, many of you who hate on it now, will fall susceptible to the hype on June 18th

 

[dahero1017]

Those pictures did it for me. Already have my pack on lock. Is this pack really goin to be limited? anyone know how limited?

 

[kmart23]

just a pure waste of money on the blacks they look the same as the december release

Lol, you are not serious right, or maybe just that much of a hypebeast. Its just the same 2 basic shoes with different reds on them. JB has got you fooled my friend.

I bet alot of people will settle for the varsity reds instead of paying reseller prices which could be well up to $700 or $800

Business wise it's pure genius because they'll make even more money which is pretty much what JB is all about nowadays.

QFT

word, from a business stand point its a genius way to make money. From a customer/Jordan head perspective however, its whack but to JB its about the money.


To all the Canadian NTers, any word on the pack hitting Canada?.... Toronto?....

I'm in Montreal and yea they're confirmed here but I've heard that they'll be $500

and probably a QS.

Canadian retail is crazy yo! Man if the retail isnt 400$ and i cant get 15% discount then im not buying diz pack.. prolly gonna order some white varsity reds and sum of dat "magic" marker. Plus i dont think this pack will be even near 700$.. prolly 450 !+!... ppl would rather buy the vars reds than dropping extra 150-200 bucks

Yea retail here is absolutely ridiculous, small releases like 2's are $190,regular releases are $210  and $230 for stuff like spizikes and 2010s plus tax

word man, Alot of the american heads cry about having 130 retail or 140,  man up north in Canada we paying 189 plus tax or 219 plus tax man, and dont even get me started on the prices of packs, ridiculously high

Any word on the exact release date In Canada?? 

June 19th, pre orders at FL supposedly started may 31st,$450(tax included). Ordered mine yesterday

Thanks for the heads up dude, I gotta talk to my connec at footlocker.  450 is ridiculously high

sorry for the ninja hood size pic LOL...only to five you a better feel.....the material is EXACTLY the same as the VRed....


Another comparison pic.....

Once again same material.....

seems like the suede on the Infrared VI looks better than the Varsity Red VI

 

[gtek]

Seen these at FL today.

The Infrared really POPS.
Not only that but it also seemed that a better leather is used on the Wht/Inf's
than that of the Wht/VR's.

This pack is def an upgrade from the general VR's, the marqueesole pics are only ones that really
do a justification on appearance.
Pre-ordered on ebay today and I will try to grab another on the 19th.
It said that its only 1 FL per state besides up north where HOH and Niketowns are located.
