If you're a Jordanhead like me you were probably really excited when you heard that JB was set to release a true retro in the AJ VI this year. Many people on the internets were fiending over the AJ VI in the black/varsity-red colourway. A lot of discussion was goin around how ppl were both feelin and hatin on this joint. Don't get it twisted, the peeps who were hatin on these joints were only purists and were sad that they dropped the infrareds. The AJ VI is considered to many peeps to be THE Jordan, second or third to the III or the XI.
The Spacemen were all super excited to hear bout the drop way back in early 2009 and eagerly anticipated the drop. I even considered coppin them pre-drop at a premium. Instead we all opted to pre-order them a few months early with the fear that if we didn't we may end up out of luck. However when Jan swung around we noticed a crazy phenomenon, they didn't sell out. Like the many other J's that dropped with equal hype (True Blues & Spacejams) most anticipated that these would fly off shelves, they didn't. Does the infrared make that big of a difference? Is the infrared that much of selling factor?
We're all pretty shocked here at enterspace considering that fusions (aka tranny J's) sell almost as well as these joints if supply is any indication. If you're one of those peeps who didn't grab them already, head over to finishline who still has a full size run of these for 149.99 USD.
