This Archival Jordan Was Built Like a German Sports Car
The Air Jordan 6 has never been short on personality. Between its slightly unconventional shape and a history that stretches well beyond the court, it's one of those sneakers that doesn't need much of an introduction. Still, every now and then, a release comes along that makes you stop scrolling for a second.
Enter the Air Jordan 6 “White Infrared” in White and Light Crimson.
It's a familiar combination, but that's kind of the point. Pristine white leather does the heavy lifting, while flashes of that punchy infrared shade give the sneaker its unmistakable flair. It's still a little sporty, a little nostalgic, but considerably more interesting than most other all-white sneakers.
There's also something to be said for a shoe that has managed to stay relevant without constantly reinventing itself. The AJ6 has a shape that feels distinctive without being difficult to wear, and this particular version doesn't need an overly complicated fit to make complete sense.
Whether you're a longtime Jordan enthusiast or simply looking to give your sneaker rotation a bit more character, this is a pretty compelling place to start. No new tricks required.
The AJ6 White Infrared is set to release on Nike's website November 7.
