Good to see that after the VI Brazil, Jordan Brand brings out the VI The Netherlands! ;-)

I've been watching this thread for months now and looked at the discussions here.

The shoe from pictures looks great and a cop for sure, this ain't the 2010 quality from pack.

The only thing I do not understand is why did they reduce the size of ankle bumps while every VI this year had it normal size.

Here are some other VI's for comparison, I'm really not sure why they would make it so inconsistent. Is it just because of the size or is it another JB "improvement"?

Alright, I'll try to join the pizza party

Not many statements made on NT are truer than this one!

Newjacks = What we used to call the new freshman girl in college! That word just had me flash back for a second....had to shake my head to snap out ha ha! Just a little FYI for ya.

The infrared shade works way better with these than the white VIs.

These look great. Got a few months to save, so im gonna double up on these. Never doubled before. I destroyed my DMP 6s. Im still looking for a ds pair of concords. If i can get my hands on these n the concords. Im gonna use the DMP box to put them both in, seems right to me.

Yea that wuz my first thoughts when I seen these pics earlier in the week. The Heel Bulge, or Hump wut ever you wanna call it

is not consistant as form, or shape. The white Infra had the closest too OG mold, shape of this years VI's. This Blk/Infr has gotta

be the Weakest. As for the Material used I don't know wut the "F" they used on these I will admit they do look better than the 2010's

did. But they could have done better like the Suns VIII's or Charcoal VII"s, These look more like the Blk Friday Bred IV's. Infra looks good. 

The Infra on the Black pair did look less Hot Pinkish thn the Wht/Infra's did just like the OG's.

Pics thus far look great so i'm pretty excited, may even double up. And even though I'm not a huge fan of 6's i've always been on the look out for infrared's (mainly from 2000)

Would be everything i could want them to be, if it just wasnt for the salmon. The $185 price dont bother me at all but that shade of hot pink theyre calling infrared REALLY pisses me off.

The #NTPizzaParty was formed throughout the release for the Black/Red Jordan 1.

If you wasn't there from the jump idk...

 

[Fidel_Cashflow]

I'm still in for two pairs. All these new pics are making these look better imo. I'm glad JB used the same shade of infrared as the white ones.

 

[skala]

give them that pheonix 8 suede/nubuck and id be like

You don't have to be pissed bro. Just don't get em. You dislike these. It's all ready confirmed that they aren't releasing the way you'd like them, so why stress over a product your not buying due to the shade of red used. And oh yeah, their not just "calling" it infrared, the color used is actual infrared wether you choose to accept that or not. Just don't get em. That's easy. Like I said maybe you should haunt down some varsitys.

Yea u keep tellin yourself that bro, that **** is pink and u know it. And i dont want those 4 year old Varsitys and i dont want these either now because theyre pink and not INFRARED. And i dont need u tellin me nothin bout nothin to tell u the truth.

Man these ain't pink anyone who's still calling the shade pink hasn't gone through the white infrared VI thread. It was basically confirmed that the shade used on this year is the closet to the OGs. If you don't like it just don't buy it

[emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji][emoji]128514[/emoji] This color discussion. Smh, but I'm all in. Really tho If you think this is pink you obviously never owned or really looked at the white pair. It's a mission finding anything to match infrared (clothing wise).

I wont buy it but that dont mean i dont have the right ti complain about them ruining a classic shoe by making it pink instead of Infrared. Which is why the white/infrareds were the biggest dissapointment of the year. I know i got em and theyre still sittin in my sig line for box price and dont nobody want em. Everybody in here complaining about the price increase, the 3M, the materials, and thats ok but when somebody says somethin bout the infrared lookin pink yall get yalls panties in a wad and get all defensive. I can voice my opinion all i want. Im not offending anybody.

But your opinion is wrong because you don't know the real shade of infrared and that this has been closest to the OGs in terms of shade for years

And to that sir, i say that's your opinion and i disagree with it and believe your opinion is wrong.

 

[nephi215]

It looks exactly like what they used on the 2012 black cement iv

This. I wish JB would had used Durabuck on these like the 2012 Charcoal 7s and 2013 playoff 8s. But lets not get it twisted, I still will be cop these.

As a consumer you absolutely have the right to complain. Have you tried to actually contact Nike or Jordan Brand to voice your displeasure? Or are you just ranting on NT where 99% of the people on here have zero control over the product?

2014 on the left, OG '90-'91 pair on the right.

They are the exact same color, granted the pair on the right is 23 years old and has yellowed and darkened a little....I wonder what color that OG pair was when it was brand new.............................................................
