Air Jordan 6 “Lakers”

744 days ago - by Alex Kroviak - 122 comments

The season after Kobe Bryant was done with adidas, and before he signed with Nike, Jordan Brand outfitted the superstar with retro kicks and PEs. It’s a shame this Air Jordan 6 hadn’t been created at the time, as its “Lakers” colorway would have looked great with Los Angeles’ purple and gold uniforms.

Black suede is used as the base on the toe box, forefoot and mid-panel. The remainder of the upper is done with black 3M reflective material. A white and black midsole is complimented with the standard icy clear outsole bits. The Lakers-tribute comes in with the contrast stitching that appears throughout the upper, which has been done with purple, yellow and white thread. Michael Jordan grabbed his first of six NBA Championships in VIs over the Lakers, after finally getting past the Detroit Pistons in the Eastern Conference Championships, which explains both color-ups of the Retro 6 we’ve seen.

DOPE BOY FRESH!!!! You can tell by the number of comments and the flyness of the shoe. They need to release these to the public…. which they wont cause they have some dumb people working for Jordan Brand forreal.

for those who say they won’t “cop” these because you hate the lakers… then gtfo really ? since when does Jordans represent who’s team you go against with ? these are a representation of MJs championship win against the Lakers which should be celebrated by releasing this well done sole here for those “REAL” J fans, besides how long will the 6 stick around

Might be look good at night clubs because of 3M materials.

I’m feelin those. I gots to get those & the Pistons VIs & if they drop Nuggets & Hornets VIs, I’m coppin those, too. Their team colors are tight, especially on Jordan kicks.

Foul Law
I love AJs. I like the 3M. I like Lakers… but I don’t like this end product. I guess it’s the stitching that makes me pass.. If they just made this black 3M. No question!

jordan knows kobe is the best EVER to play the game and right now kobe is hot and anything to do with the lakers us REAL hardcore fans will get it. i love this shoe and will be gettin it forsure.
NYL23
Kobebestever…..you need professional help. I’m gonna guess that you are either a die hard Lakers fan or just a youngster who did not get to be a true “witness” to the GOAT. Kobe is good and these shoes are alright but you need to check the highlights and the stat lines before you make a ridiculous comment like that.
et
YUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCKKKK!!!! they are absolutely revolting
dforest
i dont like kobe all that much even if he’s amazing nor the lakers but these are really nice. at the same time i wish itnwas just white and black
23isBestLaker
Hold up!? Jordan knows Kobe is better? How bout everyone talking bout who the best Laker is and nobody is sure that KOBE is! Put MJ in that sequence and there is NO discussion….
