Air Jordan (1991): During 1990-1991, Michael Jordan took part in the fist NBA Finals and got the championship, which is the most unforgettable moment of Michael Jordan. In order to commemorate the great success, Nike Company publicized this Air Jordan 6.
It is the first time to propose the idea of plastic shoelace with elastic strainer, which is more convenient and like a nice decoration.
And the ability of ground control is strengthened. and the technology content is also improved greatly. In 15th sept.2000, Nike company publicized the Olympic version of A.J.6, and it is the first time to make Jordan shoes the main color of blue. and the logo of Jump Man is changed into red. So it is worthy of collection. กก
The Air Jordan VI (6) was released in late 1990/early 1991. In the 90-91 season Michael added the only thing missing in his awards and titles received in the NBA. The Bulls finally won the NBA Championships beating the LA Laker's in the final. After having lost the first game they won four straight games and were without a doubt the strongest team in the NBA in a long time.
Rubber toungie What is there to say else than Hatfield created another classic. This time with a rubber tounge featuring two holes which the bearer could use to easily get the kicks on. He kept the idea with clear rubber soles and lace locks from the V's but apart from that this felt like a brand new AJ design.
The pattern on the shoe was interesting. If you looked at it in different angels and with a little bit of imagination you could see the number 23. The figure 2 standing up on the back of the shoe and the figure 3 lying down facing the ground close to the laces (soon there will be a picture illustrating this).
Retro or a butchered classic? Right before the retro release of the black/black-infra-red, pictures were published on webpages where it showed that they had reversed the midsole colors so that the red was now black and vice versa. This upset a whole lot of collectors and the word butchered was what would define this way of "destroying" a classic.
The final version turned out to be just as the original and the few people that were lucky enough to get the "butchered" sample version can probably make a buck or two.
Every year the Jordan had played was a great one, but this year was just a little sweeter for Mike. The Bulls won the NBA Championship defeating the LA Laker's in the Finals. Jordan again took home the NBA scoring title and his 2nd of 5 MVP awards.

Nike kept their ears to the street and made the Air Jordan 6 just like the original keeping their followers happy. There are several sample pairs of the "butchered" Air Jordan 6 floating around the sneaker collecting community, however, don't expect to get these for any less than $500.
The Retro Air Jordan 6 was the first retro Jordan shoe to be made in an Olympic colorway. For the Sydney 2000 games, an Olympic colorway was made in limited numbers of 3000 pairs. Today, 6 years later, many Jordan collectors estimate that the number of dead stock pairs of the Olympic Air Jordan 6 is less than 150 or 200 pairs.
To celebrate the defining moment of Jordan's first championship, Nike released a commemorative Black/Gold Air Jordan 6 packaged with a White/Black/Gold Jordan 11 sold as the "Defining Moments Package". |
