Air Jordan 6 Carmine Returns
 After 17 years of waiting, the Carmine Air Jordan 6 has finally returned in the 6/17 Countdown Package. The price of $310 has not been an issue for many since the demand for the Carmines alone is so strong. In fact, early released packs have been selling for upwards of $400 on eBay.Besides the replacement of the coveted “NIKE AIR” with the Jumpman, the differences are minuscule. If you plan on going to your local spot tomorrow to get the Carmine Jordan 6, it would be wise to try your luck online just to be safe or plan on showing up very early for the lineup. Plenty of shots of the original and retro Carmine Jordan 6 after the jump. |

the-boi,
I am in the same boat as you my man. Its just like when I got my Military 4’s or Grape 5’s - at last I hold a pair in my hands!
Comment by sneakFREAK — May 24, 2008 @ 11:46 am
I am happy to hear that so many of you were able to hey your hands on these. I have wanted the carbines that I can wear for YEARS. Though these CDP’s are kind of expensive, I appreciate the fact that not any average kid who wants just a pair of Jordans will be in the mix but rather heads who really know and appreciate how great the carmines really are.
Comment by Nice Kicks — May 24, 2008 @ 11:58 am
just picked em up this morning man. It feels special to have a Jordan of this status on my feet. by the way im sellin the XVIIs, the ebay link is here:

Comment by FLYGUY33 — May 25, 2008 @ 11:56 pm
I was definitely of age, when these dropped, J.King. A female in the 6th grade with me, had a pair… the ONLY PERSON IN SCHOOL with those at the time.
Just got back from Miami and was rocking my Carmines there on Thursday, making EVERYONE do double takes on the block.
The Athlete’s Foot on Collins Ave. (South Beach) were selling them early for $450… my boy copped his pack yesterday, for $40-$50 more than the $310 retail.
These are actually my Carmines on the beach:

i couldn’t get em on eastbay so i went to the mall at 9:30AM went to finishline and they still had em in my size 10! i couldn’t believe it! no line either!
Comment by TenaciousD — May 27, 2008 @ 10:15 pm
do the 6s fit small or big, im a definite 13 in the 180s and 90s but in pretty much every other nike a 12 fits good, i assume it runs slightly bigger? thanks if anyone responds
Comment by claremont — May 28, 2008 @ 12:21 am
claremont, they fit true to their size (IMO). I’m a 10.5-11, depending on the shoe, but I cop a few of the older designed Jordans a half a size bigger so I got these in an 11. I was gonna do that anyway, since I originally got my OG white/red 17’s in an 11, plus I wanted some comfort in the 6.
btw, pickyourshoes has the sz. 13, if you’re willing to drop $450 + shipping on them.
Comment by Darneezy — May 28, 2008 @ 3:17 am
