Air Jordan Retro VI 6 2008 Olympics Initial Look
May 04, 2008 | Comments 44
For the first time in several years (the DMP VI), the Air Jordan Retro VI is set to make it's return through several releases in one year. As part of these releases, Jordan Brand is set to return with the idea of the "Olympic VI" through the "2008 Olympics" Air Jordan Retro VI. Unlike the original "Olympic" VI, whose colorway matched the Men's Basketball Olympics uniforms, the "2008 Olympics" VI feature the colors of the Olympics Rings throughout the midsole and as accents on the White Patent upper. In addition to the Patent/Olympic Ring colored upper, the "2008 Olympics" Air Jordan Retro VI features a embroidered graphic on the toebox.
The "2008 Olympics" Air Jordan Retro VI is set to release on June 7th.

Now, his collection tallies somewhere near 500 pairs and includes everything from GRs, to QSs, to TZs, to 1 of 1s, to PEs, to Friends and Familys, and anything, and everything in between. His favorite sneaker of all time is the Air Jordan VIII. Beyond loving the physical sneaker, MaZe loves the culture behind it. When MaZe is not in front of the PC working on KATC, he's probably copping kix and making moves.

the green makes this shoe look a little bad but still copin ... cant wait 4 tha 17 n 6 countdowns
SIIIIIIIICCCCCCCCCCCCCCKK!!!!! MUST HAVE FOR THE SHOE COLLECTION!!
WEST WEST!
A must hav. Between these, fusions, countdown packs, and gas I'm gonna be one broke nicca. But hey I only live once
ugly..
straight hype.
BEST PACK SO FAR
I mean is there more then 2 releases this year between the 6/17 pack and the Olympic release ?
WTF? A joke right? They put this shoe out for good laughs.
Jordan lost his damn mind, he prolly had the week off when they made this ****
sign me up doggy
this cannot be real. i mean come on who the heck would wear something like that.
wat is the design on the toe box all about these would have been kool without.might copp to flip but these r straight up junk.u wont catch me wearing these eva.
they cold but that blue do throw it off a lil still thinkin about copin these
What's that **** on the toe box? That makes the shoe wack
Double up for sure, One for the closet the other on Ebay.. Will sell out quick,
Buy and hold like the PHO Water ETF (that's a good tip for ya'll)
those ***** look fake
I mean that green throw it off
CACA-DOOKEY
shoes arent that bad guys...its just that stitching on the toe box that looks like a ****** makes those 6s horrible
I'm not feelin the patent leather on the toe box,the heel,and part of the side panels but it's still A must cop because I love the 6's.
easy reseell..whats that on the toebox?
For those who cop these, you can rock them with some old school Cross Color outfit!!! Don't buy these joints!!
these would match tith like crazy tight COOGI outfit. goota get them. nice. would probly wear once them set them on the shelf to look at cause the clear sole. lol
i'm amazed anyone would even look at these without vomiting this CANNOT BE REAL hahah man no way i'm rocking some g&y pride J's
The embroidered design on the toe box needs to be explained more. If it has no meaning, which I'm sure it will, then it'll be pointless.
Don't think I'll be copping these, but if I did, I'd keep them DS. They won't be on the level of the Beijing AJI, but they WILL bring you in some nice cash later down the line.
It amazes me that most of you are only interested in purchasing this monstrosity of a shoe to resell. Good Luck with that........Actually, I take that back. I hope there is like no demand for these and all of you resellers are stuck with a pair of ugly shoes that you can't get rid of.
absolutely nasty colorway...geezzz green with blue? the shoe is hot but those colors r madd ugly..ill sleep on deez...
hahahahahahahahahaha these are total ****. VI are my favs, but this sh*t is kinda insulting. And what about that lousy embroidery? Shame on who even think about buying this monstrosity. Olimpic? Rather *** pride official shoes, you can rock them dressed like a drag queen. Hype-victims-idiots killed this game, not jordan brand. Why they should do better shoes if idiots buy everything, even the most otrageous ****? As someoneother said, they put out these for a good laugh.
Damn man these sneakers suck like the fusisons
HOTTT FIYA. Will most definitely be copping these joints!!!!!!!!!!
It called da 2008 olympic pendant sig u critisizing jack asses...these are dope i cant wait 4 em 2 drop...MonEy!
these are the stuff man you need to go cop go find that ten deep or undefeated gold medal shirt
the color is mmmmmmmmm not good but just because their the 6's i need them in my collection
I MUST HAVE THESE
THESE LOOK LIKE SOME FAKE,OUT THE BACK OF SOMEONES TRUNK J'S!!!IF U COLLECT "GOOD LUCK" I'LL PASS!!!!
YA.... I LOVEM !!! THEY **** ALL OVA . BUT ITS KINGS STUPID HOW THEY RELEASE THESE RIGHT AFTER THE CARMINES COME OUT PEOPLE FINNA BE BROKE N WALKIN TO DA THE STORE. I THINK THE IMPRINT ON THE FRONT LOOKS LIKE THE FACE THAT MONSTER FROM CLOVERFIELD. ARE THESE SHOES LIMITED OR GENERAL RELEASE????
KINDA****
Str8 WACK!
mann these shoes are cool. not feelin the toe box though. but the idea is great
i was excited about this sneaker but i just bought the vi carmine and 17 pack these arent worth getting dont waste your money the toe design kills the sneaker
I saw these in person. They are way better when you actually see them up close.
what are the production numbers on these?
these are a must coop,i fell in love with these,i am a og freak myself but these are perfect for the summer,the patent leather is what make the shoes flick
you cant say ur last words.
