Air Jordan 6 – Reverse Infrared
Air Jordan 6 – Reverse Infrared
History, flipped. The Air Jordan 6 'Reverse Infrared' resurfaces one of sneaker culture's most elusive colorways to celebrate the AJ6's 35th anniversary — a grail-worthy release rooted in archival legend and collector mystique.
The Story
Originally documented as the "Infrared Salesman Sample" in a 1999 Nike catalogue, this rare concept was never released to the public — until now. The classic Infrared accents are flipped, with reversed midsole color blocking and bold Light Crimson branding stamped on the heel. A salesman sample hang tag and "Not For Resale" stamp on the inner collar complete the archival narrative.
