Some colorways earn a permanent spot on the comeback list, and for the Air Jordan 6 the White Infrared sits right at the top of mine. It’s a 1991 original, from the stretch when Jordan took his first title, and that kind of pedigree never fully leaves the price. The OG returns on 7 November through SNKRS and select retailers, and what I’m watching this time isn’t drop day — it’s the week after.
White leather that owns up to everything
The 6 in white leather is always honest: every crease and scuff shows the second it happens. The trade-off is that the Infrared on the midsole and heel gives that clean base exactly enough charge without tipping into loud. Black on the tongue, the translucent sole underneath, the two rubber tongue tabs and that little lace lock up top — this is the 6 the way it’s meant to read, with no modern reworking. One of those pairs you keep staring at because nothing’s off that shouldn’t be.
Right now there’s one shop, and it’s asking €386
Here’s where euro shoppers need a steady hand. On Solezilla.com today the only active listing on this pair is a Stadium Goods consignment pre-sale — it shows up twice in our tracker, but it’s the same shop — at €385.95. There’s no UK or US offer yet, so if you’re paying in pounds or dollars you’re adding shipping and import on top of a euro price that’s already a premium. And it is a premium: that’s pre-release resale money for a shoe that hasn’t hit retail. Once 7 November lands and the in-line pairs go up, that number should look very different. You can watch it move on the White Infrared page, where every listing shows up per size and per shop.
My read: don’t pay consignment prices for an OG retro before it’s even dropped. The popular men’s sizes go first and come back pricier, that part’s true — but the edge sizes sit longer, and that’s exactly where a clean deal turns up once the opening rush fades. Decide the size you actually want now, and let the market come to you instead of the other way around.
Want to see which other Air Jordan 6 colorways are floating around before you commit, scan the wider Jordan shelf first — sometimes the smarter buy is a colorway over. And once you’ve made up your mind on this OG-6, drop your call in Grail or Bail: the more votes come in, the sharper we read where the White Infrared really stands heading into 7 November.
