Olympic Air Jordan 6 ‘08 Retro – June 7th

Olympic Air Jordan 6 2008 Retro

It’s time for the Air Jordan 6 to get some 2008 shine. Jordan Brand hasn’t released any 6’s in a while, and the Carmine AJ6 broke the cycle. Tomorrow, the 2008 Olympic AJ6 will make it’s debut. The colorful midsole pays homage to the Olympic Rings, and we still don’t have any idea what the stitching on the toe box represents. These J’s received a lot of hate, but it’s an AJ6 so people buy them regardless. Most people don’t know, but these will also be available in GS sizes, so ladies you’re in luck. Image: Proper

We all know the 2008 Olympic Air Jordan 6 is the total opposite of the 2000 Olympic Air Jordan 6. For those of you that’s new to the game check out the OG Olympic 6’s after the jump.

    You can’t even compare these to the 2000’s. But I’m wondering, are these whole shoes patent leather????? From the pics, that’s it appears like, but it’s hard to tell.

  19. ^^^Hyphy J lover, “Named after one of the greatest events worldwide, this pair of kicks is made with a combination of rich leathers and suede, plus a foam-backed internal booty system that provides a snug, high-performance fit.” (www.eastbay.com, 2008)

    That still doesn;t answer the question..?? They look like patent even on eastbay.

    G-Roc, I’m still sticking to my first opinion…these are a pass. Yeah they’re VI’s, but the colorway is too weak IMO. I like kicks that look raw, these look homo-ish. I got no problem if you play ball for that team, but I just can’t rock kicks with this color scheme.

  20. Comment by de la SOLE June 7th, 2008 at 7:31 am

    Don’t know if I’ll cop …. even if I do… there not gonna sell out… so I’m good

  21. I JUST COPPED MINE. I LOVE VI’S :)

  22. Comment by Brooklyn June 7th, 2008 at 8:20 am

    to answer some of yall questions yes they are completely patent leather white

  23. Comment by SNGURL32 June 7th, 2008 at 8:47 am

    YEA I MIGHT COP…… STILL NOT SURE GUESS ILL DECIDE WHEN I SEE THEM IN STORES

  24. Comment by 4DRUMZ June 7th, 2008 at 8:50 am

    ^ If you checked the all patent retro Barkley 180’s you’re either going to love or absolutely hate the look. Obviously Eastbay emptied of these… quick but for any J. retro… there are some who buy just because. IDK?

  25. Comment by REALTALK June 7th, 2008 at 8:54 am

    HOW DOES A SHOE LOOK HOMO. ITS NOT LIKE IT GOT PINK IN THE SHOE. LOL THE STUFF U HEAR NOWADAYS. ANYWAY I COPPED THEM, AND THEY LOOK ICEY. THERE IS NO WAY U CAN CALL YASELF A SNEAKERHEAD AND NOT LIKE THESE. BUT I GUESS ITS THE HATE.

  26. Comment by Jose June 7th, 2008 at 8:59 am

    What retail for them ?

    The store I go 2 in queens r selling them for crzy prices

    !80 – $250

  27. THESE REALLY A GOOD LOOK FOR THE SUMMER THE TOEBOX IS THE ONLY THING THAT LOOKS OFF ON THE SHOE

  28. ^^ REAL TALK, it looks homo-ish because it mirrors the Gay Pride flag, look it up.
    It aint my fault that that’s what it looks like.

  29. why it gotta be homo because it got color if you know you not gay why care

  30. I JUST CALLED MY SPOT AND THEY JUST SOLD OUT!

  31. Comment by Hyphy J lover June 7th, 2008 at 4:11 pm

    Thats pretty tight that they’re patent leather. I dunno, the stitching on the toe killed it for me. I love flamboyant colors on shoes, but in my opinion they could of went way dumber on these. Either way, it is what it is. I passed, got the DMP’s and the Carmines which both shit all over these kicks. I also totally see why they’re being called homoish. they really do resemble the national gay pride flag 100%

  32. Comment by Paul June 7th, 2008 at 5:22 pm

    2000 Olympics > 2008 Olympics

  33. Congrats to everyone that got their pair!

  34. Comment by KING AJ June 7th, 2008 at 6:00 pm

    nice summertime colorway

  35. Comment by Xkrispy_eli June 7th, 2008 at 6:01 pm

    just checked out most of the footlocker, etc. sites and they are all sold out.

  36. Comment by Quail June 7th, 2008 at 7:59 pm

    Wow, I happened to be at the mall today and I saw these, without knowing about them. Meh, they looked ok I guess but a lot more shiny than in the picture.

    Only good thing about these is that any green/blue/red/white/ balck or yellow t would look sweet with these

  37. Comment by APDEYKNOW June 7th, 2008 at 9:16 pm

    Coped these today at my spot, WALTERS IN THE A!! The leather on these is dope and the colors are definately certified head turners. the toe box is wack but its all good.

  38. Damn y culdnt they bring back the 2000. This shit is gross. ^^^prime time hahahahaha

  39. Comment by JUMPMAN27504 June 8th, 2008 at 1:53 am

  42. These are crazy, I had to get em. After all, JB may never release another all PL VI…u never know. Anyway, I like them more after seeing them in person.

  43. Comment by julio June 8th, 2008 at 2:32 pm

    WORST COLORWAY EVER!!!!
    WHATS WRONG WITH JB THEY ON CRACK….

  44. i think they would be be dope if they hadn’t used patent leather
    it makes the shoe far too flashy
    good concept though

  45. how are people saying these are homo colors or gay pride there isnt any pink or purple in it. people trippin if u see them i think most would change there minds on this one thats if u can find them!!!!!

  46. Comment by REALTALK June 8th, 2008 at 4:56 pm
