Air Jordan VI Carmine confirmed for 2014

[mj2324kb]

I had 3 PURR as a kid, Nordstrom was my footlocker back then. Walked in and copped days, weeks and months after release.............. sigh.

yes the outfit was horrible, lol, I let the jays do the talking back then!

I can't wait to get them back in the rotation after 20+ years.

Reading comprehension is not your strong suit, huh.

I don't think my post said anything about not buying due to a lace lock. Nor does it say that I thought that the shoe was ruined.

It's called making an observation on something that is obviously different.

Wrong. Reading comprehension is a strong suit of mine. 

The "smh" portion of your response indicated a unhappy observation.

Adding the "but still" part also contributed to the overall unhappiness.

I also never came at you for not buying the shoe due to it. I was simply making an observation that you were complaining about such a small detail.

Was that a good enough reading comprehension for you, huh?

do jordans usually release the same day over in europe? I'm gonna be in italy the day these release so hopefully i can go to one of the nikestores when im over there

We've graduated to nitpicking lacelocks now??

Guess you completely missed the Grape 5 thread.

 

[godice]

We have a date baby yeah. I'm happy now.

 

[AIR J XIII]

Clear lace locks!?!? Smh. I know it's a small detail but still...

Some of y'all will just accept whatever is given to you. Just have your paycheck direct deposited to Nike, you're already behind.

I'll probably just try to grab 1 pair for hooping. I don't need 2 if it's a real blue sole and a clear lace lock. My CDP still looks fresh just some yellowing as expected.

 

[KanyIZZY]

NEW NTLKERS ARE BUGGING BUT HEY ITS THEIR OPINION…I HAVE CDP'S AND WOULD LOVE A NEW BLUE SOLED VERSION BUT THAT TOE BOX PIC LOOKED MAD STRANGE LMAO.. IM NOT USUALLY ONE TO CARE ABOUT THAT BUT I GUESS WITH THE TWO TONE IT JUST LOOKED WAY OFF. DOESNT MATTER SINCE IM NOT BUYING SOMETHING I ALREADY OWN AND DONT WEAR MUCH AS IS.

PS: WHATS UP WITH JB NOT PAINTING THE SMALL INNER ARCH ABOVE THE CLEAR SOLE (ON THE INNER MIDSOLE) ON VI'S THIS YEAR? NOTICED THE SAME THING ON INFRARED VI'S THAT ARE DROPPING NEXT MONTH.

grrrrrrr.... I hope that changes with the final product(s). That annoyed me on the Olympics. not as much as the reversed midsole on the other side, but yeah I still bought them

were talking lacelocks fam. not changing the carmine shade or anything. lacelocks. 

 

[csprings09er]

I have a question, how do you guys keep the toe on your 6's and 7's from yellowing? Thats the only thing I hate about my sixes. After a couple of years theyre no bueno.

nah, blk/infrared, carmine and maroons are painted, Im not 100 on the sport blue, but im leaning toward them being unpainted

To some, no detail is ever to small.

That was my first thought when I saw this pic.

Obviously they are a PSd pair, but no one said anything.

Lmao, yeah man, they look SOOOO worn out definitely need to retire those.

You're right, it is a small detail but a detail nonetheless. It's not like they used a different shade of red. It's a clear lace lock. I mean, was it really that difficult to include a lace lock that was similar? Hopefully, when release is near, that will change.

Like I said in my previous post, it won't persuade me from buying a pair (I don't wear the lace lock) but it's irritating that a shoe cannot be done properly.

Yeah fam I feel you. It's annoying that JB has the ability to do so but its like they purposely make it different. They def do it to make original pairs more sought after and to raise the hype and what not but its so damn irritating. ive been wiating for these shoes too damn long so unless they completely change the shoe up for some reason, its a go for me

Well that's what's up

 the thought of it now is still funny though, DS kicks in the picture "Yeah time to retire these bad boys" like that other dude in this thread who looked at em once in the box, and retired them right then and there

Honestly, I think all jump man models should be made the exact same as the last. It'll keep the OG's "sacred" to whoever really cares about that, IMO bring all that **** back exactly how it was, but I think that they should do these exactly how they did them in 2008, keep the blue sole honestly I don't care, just get the shape right.
