The Nike Air Jordan Retro 6 was released in late 1990 and designed by Tinker Hatfield. Jordan won his first NBA Championship wearing these Air Jordan 6 Retro. The heel tab of the Jordan VI Shoes took inspiration from Michael Jordan's slant-nosed Porsche. In 2000 an Olympic colorway was released with a mixture of white, royal blue, and a hint of red (lacelocks) to symbolize the U.S.A. colors. This shoe featured a #9 on the shoe(Jordan's olympic number).
