Surprised? How did our very first look at the legendary Air Jordan line turn out to be the Air Jordan VI? Well, it may not be the greatest, flashiest, or even the most innovative Jordan ever made, but the VI is in our opinion the epitome of the Air Jordan line.
The only way to really appreciate and understand the Air Jordan VI is to look back at everything that surrounded the shoe. MJ had gone through 7 seasons in the NBA that consisted of winning scoring titles, MVP awards and superstar status. However, it wasn't until that year of 1991 did Michael finally entered the league of Bird and Magic by winning an NBA championship. The first of 6 rings validated MJ's career as a complete player, a winner and a champion. In the same sense, the VI validated the already popular Air Jordan line. It came on the heels of arguably the three best Air Jordan of all time - III, IV and V. Yet Nike didn't simply look backwards and sit still. Instead, it borrowed from past design cues and added new innovations to form one complete shoe that propelled the Air Jordan line forward for generations to come. Lets take an in-depth look at what the VI brought to the table and how it laid the foundation for the entire shoe industry for the next decade.
