When i was a kid in 4th grade, the 1st shoe i ever recognized as a “cool shoe” was on the feet of my friend who was wearing the AJ6 Black/Infrared. This shoe will forever be my introduction into Jordan sneakers

Appreciate the historical insight. I definitely remember playing travel league ball and being wowed by other players rocking the OG Jordan’s while I was rocking some bobos. Took me a few years to save up for a special pair. Now it sucks that it’s so hard to cop a pair, especially anything with some “hype”. Kudos for your Hibbetts hook up, just wish the common folk can get some enjoyment too.

@AfrikanCaesar5 жыл бұрын
The 2014 pair was "Infrared-23" not "Infrared". There's a difference. We all know Nike/Jordan Brand tinkers with the colorways of their retros, this being no exception. Infrared-23 is a variation of Infrared, it's not the exact same. That's why they look different
@heskicks5 жыл бұрын
Afrikan Caesar that’s a good callout they went in on that infrared 23 color that year. They were not marketed as a different shoe tho it was a retro of the OG to anyone that was looking for em
@daytripper24085 жыл бұрын
EABOY2600 he meant the shade of the infrared on the sole not the shoe itself
@AfrikanCaesar5 жыл бұрын
@EABOY2600 comprehension is key. The same shade of Infrared was used on both shoes, which was "Infrared-23". It's literally on the box. Just because you have one pair the name because the upper was mostly that color doesn't negate what I said. Do your homework.

Looks really good, and way better than the previous infrared version. AJVI is my personal favorite AJ. I was in 6th grade when it came out, like half of the class had a pair but I was one of those who couldn't afford it. Thank the sneaker gods for this retro trend in the sneaker world. Apart from the nostalgia it brings, I'm a big Batman fan and AJVI's connection to Batman history makes this shoe all the more special for me. For those who didn't know, Michael Keaton wore VIs customized into bat-boots in Batman Returns. Perhaps a new all-black colorway should be done in 2022 for the film's 30th anniversary, maybe call it Dark Knight :)
