Thirty-five years have passed since the famous Air Jordan 6 silhouette was first released back in 1991. In honour of the occasion, Jordan Brand is expected to release a variety of treasured colourways from their vaults, beginning with the fan favourite Air Jordan 6 “Black/Infrared”.

A Closer Look At The Air Jordan 6 “Black/Infrared”
According to Sneaker Market Romania, the popular ‘Black/Infrared’ colourway is set to return to the sneaker scene in 2026. The big question on everyone’s mind is whether the new iteration will be a reimagined version with upgraded materials or a faithful copy of the original 1991 pair.
If it’s the latter, anticipate the high-top silhouette to feature the same black nubuck leather upper with dull leather at the heel. The Jumpman embroidery on the neoprene sleeve, lace locks, pull tabs, and midsole trim will all feature red accents.
What We Like About The Sneakers
The Air Jordan 6 ‘Black /Infrared ‘ holds a special place in the hearts of sneaker enthusiasts, with its iconic black and red colourway serving as a powerful reminder of Michael Jordan’s NBA legacy, specifically his first NBA championship win in 1991. It seems natural that the Jumpman Label would plan to bring back this iconic shoe for fans to enjoy in honour of the model’s 35th anniversary.
Release Details
The popular colourway will be available once again come Spring 2026 on Nike.com and at select Jordan Brand stores. Although the pricing has not yet been determined, it is expected to retail for between $200 and $225 USD. We’ll keep you updated on whether the next iteration will be a reimagined version or stick to the 1991 design.
