Air Jordan 6 was nothing but good luck. That’s the only way to describe them.
With Air Jordan 6s on his feet, Michael Jordan led the Chicago Bulls to win the NBA 1990-91 season by pummeling the LA Lakers in the finals.
They say, there’s only one thing harder than winning: defending it. And Michael Jordan did that too. Playing the season with Air Jordan 6, he came out winning the NBA scoring title (yet again).
In addition to these two huge awards, Jordan won MVP for the second time in his career. Air Jordan 6 worked like a lucky charm for Michael Jordan and Chicago Bulls. But for Michael Jordan and Air Jordan fans, the new release carried more value (perhaps somewhere deep—at the emotional level). To satisfy these hungry fans, Nike released the retro edition in 2000 with new color schemes, and the “Nike Air” engraving made way for the famous Jumpman.
Then in 2002, Jordan 6s were given a slightly new form with a low-top and a new market when they introduced women’s colorways and sizing. With Air Jordan 6, the Jordan series crossed the gender divide and became a universal, gender-neutral craze. But it was not enough.
The Air Jordan 6 ran its first full retro run in 2010, and it was received worldwide by a ravenous audience. The best thing: they haven’t yet exalted it to the hall of fame where you’d have to pay a few hundreds extra to get your hands on (or your feet in!) them. You can still buy them for just $300.
