The Air Jordan 6 Retro 'Bordeaux' takes on a familiar color scheme tied to the shoe's successor, the Air Jordan 7. Soft nubuck construction is utilized on the upper, featuring a neutral grey base with contrasting black overlays. The translucent tongue features a multicolor print that replicates the look of the AJ7's neoprene tongue, while Bordeaux accents land on the throat and molded heel tab. Lightweight cushioning arrives via the visible Air-sole unit nestled in the heel of a grey and black polyurethane midsole.
