A relatively quiet year for the Air Jordan 6, Jordan Brand has kept its involvement with the silhouette lowkey. Key releases thus far include “Georgetown” and “Red Oreo” looks alongside various PE reveals. Adding to the sneaker’s list of notable drops for 2022, a new “Metallic Silver” colorway surfaced in September. Pulling inspiration from the Air Jordan 6 Retro Low “Black Metallic” and Defining Moments Pack’s (DMP) Air Jordan 6 from 2006, this pair puts a twist on classic releases.
The Air Jordan 6 Metallic Silver showcases a familiar design previously seen on the ‘Chrome’ Air Jordan 6 Low from 2015. The upper is crafted from solid black nubuck with silver Jumpman branding on the lace guard. Standard AJ6 details remain intact, including a windowed tongue, lace locks, and a spoiler-like heel tag. Additional hits of “Metallic Silver” can be spotted at the midsole, heel and special box. Its sole unit balances a black rubber outsole with a portion of it in a blue translucent finish, rounding out the detailing of this colorway.
