Air Jordan VI (6) x Gatorade – 2009 Quickstrike Release

Gatorade x Air Jordan VI (6)

While no pictures and/or production information are yet available, Sneaker Files has received word that there will be an Air Jordan 6 (Retro VI) produced in a collaboration with Gatorade. We were not told of a specific colorway, but there’s at least a 24% chance that an infrared colorway will be re-conceived!

The Gatorade x Air Jordan VI will release in February of 2009.

It looks like 2009 will be the year of Jordan collaborations; From Gatorade to Space Jam?!

  7. Hobby Rock says:

    Ohhh meeehhh gaaawddd…..

    forget about the bred true flights. And forget about that crap about no retros in 09. 1 hi's, V's, more packs, and VI's? Wow…I am going to be soooo broke before summer starts.

  8. I really don't care what colorway they are. I NEED a pair of 6's. I missed out on the Carmine's and the Olympic 6's didn't come in my size so WHATEVER colorway they drop, I'm on em

  9. "the colourway will be orange and green!

    …too obvious? yeah"

    I swear.

  10. i still my my first retro 6's in almost perfect shape no yellowing at all…worn about 2 times to the mall…those beautys have been in my closet since then…really thinkin about sellin them…sucks but im just to scared to wear em…if i f'em up ill freakn die

  11. =O if its the infrared VIs… O-M-G im copping two pairs and a 24 pack of gatorade just for them bringing it back lmao

  12. I agree with N!KEHEAD;

    But I think it will be a Gaterade colorway.

    Remember the Army Green V's?

  13. 6's are one of my favs. Must cop!!!

  14. I would have to see the pics…the 6 are the holy grailsssssssssssssssss….bring it one!!!!! i hoping they re-retro the space jams or the concord again….on 2009

  15. DaHero1017 says:

    What the fuck, are you seriouse? These better be fucking true.

  16. man dont even play like that…if infareds drop again imma GO HAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

  17. unlimitedfutwear says:

    first off yall r stupid for going broke over sneakers!!!!!!! I hope none of you r over 16. As far as the shoe goes I jus want a pic. If they r green and orange it better be done right!!!!!!!!

  18. What da FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope they bring back da Black INFAREDS, PLEASE JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!. Can any body tell us true JORDAN FANS if they are going to be a LIMITED Release???????????????????????? PLEASE need answers????????

  19. Sneakerfiles PLEASE tell me WHY a collabo with gatorade would yield the infrared 6's? WHY?

    dont get me wrong i would LOVE those infrareds to come back but looks like youre just building up HYPE for no reason

  20. that would be great either the wht-infrareds or the bred playoff!

    if i am not mistaken….mj's fav flavor was citrus color…i know the bobcats are orange and blue..please i hope to g-d the colorway aint white-orange-navy…that would be hor–ible!!! as rome alone would say!!! ha..ha!

  21. soles_and_j's says:

    I would give my arm for these. Not a leg though then I can't rock em

  22. extraeazy(stuffflype says:

    dam we can only pray its the infra red's. i highly doubt it tho

  23. why wuld the infareds be the colorway on a gatorade collab? i mean dont get me wrong, that wuld be the illest! this will be interesting tho, hard colors to put together on a XI.i wonder if they put the gatorade trademark on em… that would be dope i think

  24. jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus jesus

  25. JORDAN_CRAZY says:

    THANX FOR INFO. MOST COP

  26. I <3 jordan brand…just wen i gave up on them they do this… :)

  27. Take another look at what 'infrared' is linked to, folks… "24%" chance is will be *RE*conceived… 24%, as in the AJ XXIV. That is independent of the Gatorade VIs. Expect to see the infrared concept on the XXIVs, not the Gatorade VIs.

    As for the Gatorade VIs, they best be much better looking than the '08 Olympics. I still feel cheated with those… taking my favoriate AJs and making them shiny white with rainbow colors. Good lord…

  28. town slappin' says:

    if da shoes is gonna be part of gatorade at least make em the infra reds but with a small gatorade sign on the side. kuz orange and green shoes dont go on jays. da olympic 6 wuz ugly kuz da rainbow colored and so was da new olympic 7's dat came out diz year.

  29. DonSneakers says:

    Please Mike…..DO NOT retro the infared VI's…..did it once that ship has sailed….(plus I got 2 pair)

  30. think about it tha levi 1's collabo wuz str8 crack so um hopin they pull it off wit dez wether its tha infrared or not

  31. Is iT the Black/infrareds oR the White/infrareds i want BoTH

  32. hoping for the blk infareds…. but opus138 had a good idea. 24%” chance is will be *RE*conceived… 24%, as in the AJ XXIV. im still praying for infareds. with a baby on the way in MAY ima start the saving now

  33. OMG!!!! Finally infareds i never got to get em cause i wasnt a jordan guy til i was in the 6th grade im willing to get shot in line for these

  34. the commercial in the picture is from Israel

  35. Hopefully they infrareds cuz if they is i will pay anything under $300

  36. its white/infrared. which we don't even know yet no picture.

  37. hopefully its that White/infrared or Black/red,infrared.

    If this Gatorade colorway it gonna be white,Green,orange,black.

  38. white, yellow ice outsoles, orange midsole accents, green tongue and green jumpman on back. yeah, they'd be fugly, but i wouldn't be surprised. would be nice to see the white infrareds, though…

  39. Cuffie_SP says:

    it might be the infrared's wit some kind of respect to the Gatorade, (i.e stitching or something)..

    BUT WE KNOW THESE KIND IF LIMITEDs BE LIMITED TO LIKE 2:

    1 FOR JORDAN

    1 FOR A FAN THAT WANNA PAY 50 GRAND LOL

    Playoff 12's and space jam 11's??

    or

    Vise Versa!!

  67. STAYzFRESH says:

    IT DONT MATTER THE COLORI IM ON EM

  68. Well hopefully the reason why little feedback about the shoe has been given since the initial posting on Oct 30th has something to do with Jordan brand trying to suprise is with an og colourway. Personally, i don't mind either the infrared/white or the maroon/ off white. They are both dope. Gatorade doesn't necessarily have to be orange and green. Gatorade-inspired could also mean the shoe takes off after a particular flavour of the energy drink. Only hope that this flavour is red , maroon ir infrared.

  69. If it's green and orange I'm giving up on Jordans. This time I mean it!

  70. I just bought a new pair of Blk/Infrared VI's. Damn I hope it's the WHite Infrareds. But it said to be reconceived… So it must be the blk Infrareds.

  71. I hear it is going to be a pack. One OG and one Gatorade colour

    Someone else told me it will be an infrared pack (Black and white)

  72. Martin, if your right, these could be just as good as the xi/xii pack. Where did you hear that from? Any reliable sources?

  73. man i hope that they DO release them cuz i have been looking at release dates on 23isback.com and they use to be on there but now they are not? any help im only 14 i have air jordan 1,2,3,4,5,6,6 rings,afj12 help i want some more 6s

  74. its been said that its going to be white.orange.green and infrared. and no space jams will be released this year, but it is said that there is a new colorway of xi feena drop this summer

  75. I hope the gatorades come out. i already got the infrareds, hope they dont re-release..

  76. Furious Styles says:

    I want the infareds so badly!!! All I want are the Vi's and that is the last piece to my Jordan puzzle. I only have the I, XI, XVIII, and XX3's. This is last one for me. Please JB, don't make it green and orange you basterds!!!!

  77. Yo is it just me or does this seem like a bogus rumour ?

  78. Barack Obama says:

    it is a bogus rumor..

  79. If they're coming or not don't care, I stay with cash just in case. ya digg!!!!!!!!!!!

  80. BIZZY BONE says:

    idont think there comin out ne more . or they moved tha release date becasue on 23isback.com it was scheduled to be released in feb. then it was removed

  81. Man so far I got the Carmines + the Blk/Infrareds both DS. If true do u know what will the Gatorade VI's _+ WHT/Infrared VI's do to my collection?. Sick!.

  82. pho shizzle says:

    AHHHHHHH!!!! It's the first of march and still no gatorade vi's!!!! I got my hopes up for nothing….Thanks alot JB…..

  83. datkidmike23 says:
