    I have a beater pair of 2000 retro Infrared’s for regular wear, I have my twice-worn 2000 retro Infrared’s put away, and I’m still gonna buy 2 pair of these to wear. These 6′s are my favorite shoe of all time. I just can’t get enough of them!!! good vid, Sneaker Dave…

    @ BACKROAD….my friend told me there’s gonna be an Asia/International only release of a White/Infrared Jordan 6 this year….but I don’t know if it’s true yet….so hell, maybe they WILL bless us with a 6-Pack this year.

  9. RetroKid says:

    Good Lookin with that video dave. You just sealed the deal on me getting these man. Good Look

  10. PhilWil says:

    There was allot of love/hate going on with the infrared vs varsity red but from what I noticed from the comments it seemed to be more about the suede vs nubuck.

    I would have rather had infrared because its a darker red than varsity red, but I think I would have to see it in person.

  11. CenValCali says:

    LOL @ am95connoisseur! CAMEO’S LEATHER JOCK STRAP” RED….had my azz rollin! Never understood WTF wuz up wit him wearin a “cup” Guess that’s his trademark for whatever reason he wuz “feelin himself,” @ the time….on that note:

  12. ill will says:

  13. Blue Crew says:

    I saw these today at my local Champs and they look good. They also had a girls pink colorway. Has anyone heard of that release? Might get it for the little one. Remember, just buy what you like. Who cares what others think.

  14. big hank says:

    you forgot
    poped cherry red

  15. XkrispyELI says:

    i will be copping these for sure now, i seen some detailed pics and i am satisfied.

  16. BRINX says:

    lol @ tokyomike… yousa funny muthaf**cka i swear!
        
    but yea erybody got they own thing. some like the vintage look/style and some like the fresh/crisp style… i myself just prefer the fresh/crisp style.
    you cant have a crispy pair a jeans on a fresh crisp fitted and shirt and then some beat up creased crashed yellow kicks on… but if you aint goin anywhere important and just on some whatever shit i guess its okay to throw on a pair of beaters. i do know alot of people that like there high tops and jordan 1′s a little crashed for some reason.. never understood why though?

  17. royal swagness says:

    ^Am95connosseiur I just throught of some other things red for the list, lobster red, Stoplight red, eyes red, velvet cake red, box of tide detergent red, lil wayne’s vest in the ” a milli video red ” and santa clause suit red. either way I’m going to be outside at 11:35 p.m on january 22 waiting for them to open.

  18. youngboss says:

    ya’ll are crazy with the comments haha funny tho. these are on point, definitely pick these up.

  19. TokyoMike says:

    ^^BRINX….I know exactly why I like em worn in….when I see someone wearing something that makes my penis swell and pulsate with excitement, it’s almost NEVER something boxfresh and here’s the reason;
    .
    .
    I’m mostly speaking of kicks that came out when I was a kid….80′s and 90′s…anyhow, FOR ME, the appeal of a sneaker that came out in ’89 is just that…..that’s a pretty long time ago, so the sneaker itself should reflect that…..a DS pair of sneakers that released in the late 80′s looks stupid to me because in my crazy skull, I remember em from back then…they should have been being worn the whole time…if it dropped in ’88, it’s from ’88 to me regardless of if we’re talking about a shoe that was made two seconds ago as a re-re-retro…..my True Blue 3′S, I wore em constantly just to get em to “look their age”….”YOU’RE FROM 1988 DAMN IT, NOW GET OUTSIDE, AND GET 15+ YEARS WORTH OF WEAR ON YOU!!!”….older kicks show their age beautifully, and I love it…..with newer models, sure, crispy is the way to go, but for me, when I grab a pair of Dunks, or SC’s, or Terminators, or especially Jordans…let’s say V’s, they usually have some yellowed nets on em, the laces are a bit frayed, and I’m just adding another page to their “book of life”…..and I enjoy em WAAAAAAY more than my other, virgin skinned kicks that have barely seen the light of day, let alone wind, rain, sleet, snow, Kodiak bear sh!t, etc……

  20. TokyoMike says:

    ^^Royal Swag and am95, here’s my late contribution to your “red list”….I’ll keep it brief because I think you guys pretty much killed it…..
    .
    “Horny dog’s schlong” red….my fave!!!
    .
    “my “friend” is visiting, but we can put a towel down” red
    .
    “Kool Aid with 45 cups of sugar in it” red….TASTY!!
    .
    “Satan from Southpark” red
    .
    “Strawberry Fruit Roll Up’s are the best tasting plastic I’ve ever eaten as a child” red
    .
    “Michael Jackson’s kick ASS jacket in THRILLER” red
    .
    “Ozone’s t-shirt and Turbo’s parachute pants in
    BREAKIN’; 2 ELECTRIC BOOGALOO” red

  21. 4DRUMZ says:

    ^ TM… I get that brother! It’s like when you see some old salty dude covered in tattoos… A lot of people would think “Man, his work is all old, faded, and smudgy now”… all I can think is, “That dude is OG!” As a child of the early 90′s sneaker boom I can give mad respect to a yellowed and cracked pair of beaters! I love it man… telling a retro to “GET OUT THERE AND ACT YOUR AGE”!!! I would compromise with BRINX on this one though… we all gotta decide when the 1st time is to clean up and rock a DS classic retro. When it’s something like this that needs to be a pretty special occasion!!!

  22. Sheinzy says:

    LOL @TokyoMike

    “my “friend” is visiting, but we can put a towel down” red

    To everyone complaining about the suede and the red just don’t buy em, thats all you have to do, its not like the rest of us care and its not like JB cares cause we all know this shoe gonna be gone like the Space Jams

  23. TokyoMike says:

    ^^funny you compare it to ink….I’m about %40 covered now and still going….and yeah, exactly, when I see some old Navy guy with a warship tattooed on his forearm that looks like the ink is green because it was done in the 50′s, I get all pumped up lol…..

  24. am95connoisseur says:

    LOL @ ALL THE “RED” ADDITIONS…. FOR REAL, I AM OVER HERE CRACKIN’ UP……

    TOKYOMIKE – TURBO & OZONE ELECTRIC BOOGALOO HAD ME DYIN’

  25. am95connoisseur says:

  26. royal swagness says:

    ^ o.k 2 more and I’m done. mickey mouse overalls red, and gatorade red.

  27. Shaun says:

    I think the Infrareds are much better but I’m not gonna knock the Varisty Red Retros. They are pretty fresh and I am thinking about doubling up on them.

  28. JordanAmbassador4Life says:

    I think it’s pretty safe to say that I can walk into a footlocker on the 23rd and scoop a pair without a huge line. They do look nice but I’m still on the fence about them.

  29. kemp says:

    bet….they still remindin of the flu games too much tho..

  30. big hank says:

    the only color in the movie schindlers list red

  31. I never waivered on these… I’ve been queued up since the first mention. I actually bought a set of the original retro blk/infrareds for my girl (now wifey) and I and had to take my pair back for a refund.

    Back then, I’d wear new J’s right out the door but I took these home asap. Sadly, the quality of materials and color blocking was atrocious. Horrible pair… The durabuck was paper thin and looked like pressurized plastic wrap on my foot despite fitting well. Broke my heart but hey, a fkd pair is a fkd pair.

    The 2010 pair has suede that I’m hoping is on the DB level. The DB’s are the first retro Jordans to see near OG quality in a minute. In regards to the shade of red, it’s a dead issue. We’d rock the infrareds with varsity red accessories anyhow… meh..

    Anyhoo, yeah… never waivered on the y/n to these. Insta-auto-cop.

  32. JRa says:

    anyone reselling these is a jerk.

  33. big hank says:

    happy to see not as many hype beast onto these unlike the jams…that ish was crazy

  34. S.po says:

    Yo fellas just copped my blk an red VI ok i can say these shits are do cheap it not even funny the black paint over laps the red a lil jb did a real bad job to these VI thank god I didn’t pay over retail I’m mean the suede is nice look on it but the paint sucks they did a better job on the kids then they did on the men it seems Luke ever since jb went on it own it got cheaper smh

  38. iSETtrenDz says:

    ^^^ WORD AGREED SKA713 & with every1 else who don’t b*tch & knows life goes on & dem IMFRAREDS (yes i’ve capped it for respect lol) is a thing of the past!!! They probably never comeback out & if they do they’ll probably be “Clifford The Dog” red or “Bank Account Overdraft” red.. i’ve copped, rocked & love them, they are FRESH, the suede is cool (especially if u got a suede brush, da more u brush the smoother & slicker that suede become, nearly lookin nubuck)… AYO F*CK THAT I’M GETTIN’ AT LEAST 90% OF THE RETROED JORDANS THIS YEAR, I”M GOIN’ HARD on you weakkkk whores!!!
