Last weeks, Clash of the Kicks was definitely a tough one to call as the Air Jordan 5 (V) Retro - Fire Red barely defeated the Air Jordan 4 (IV) Retro - Mars Blackmon! Many readers were forced to make a tough decision as both color-ways are marked as classics within the Air Jordan line-up.
This week’s Clash of the Kicks is is yet another encounter which will require a resolute choice from our readers. Which one are you going to root for? (Don’t forget to comment and let us know your thoughts!)
- Air Jordan 1 (I) Retro 2003 - White / Black - Red (Detailed Pictures)
- Air Jordan 6 (VI) Retro - Olympic (Midnight Navy / Varsity Red - White) (Detailed Pictures)
The Air Jordan 1 (I) Retro 2003 - White / Black - Red were released on November 22, 2003. They are 1 of 3 Air Jordan 1’s (I) that were released in patent leather versions. The upper consists mostly of red patent leather, with white inserts and black accents, including the Nike swoosh and laces, which are a nice touch. They are really flashy, and are definite head turners. They are extremely difficult to find in dead stock condition.
The Air Jordan 6 (VI) Retro - Olympic (Midnight Navy / Varsity Red - White) were release on September 15, 2000 and retailed for $ 120. They are dubbed the “Olympics” as they feature the American Flag colorway…red / white / blue, and were originally worn by Jordan in the Olympic games. The Air Jordan 6 (VI) features similar elements from the Air Jordan 5 (V), including the lace locks and clear sole. Besides that, they are a completely different shoe. The pattern on the shoe is interesting. If you look at the shoe the right way, the number 23 appears with the number 2 standing upright on the back of the shoe and the number 3 laying down, facing the ground near the laces.

extremely easy decision for me seeing these six’s are in my top ten J’s of all time,and I am not a fan of red cw’s at all except for the Mars v’s
Nah, man ! I have to go with the 1s…. Come on! The patent leather is killin em… 6s are hot too though. I wish I could have BOTH!
THE 6′S R OV MI FAV JAYS 2 BUT THEEZ R THE ONLY 1’s I dont like.
THE 6′S R 1 OV MI FAV JAYS 2 BUT THEEZ R THE ONLY 1’s I dont like. so the 1s win
yo i gotta go with the 6’s
Nothing beats an olympic colorway
Of course Jordan 6
The 1’s aren’t that nice compared to other 1’s and the 6’s are nice so gotta go with the olympics
I had the maroon and white 6s when they came out and loved em … so the 6s get my vote
SEX OLYMPICS!
the 6’s are like #18 on my list on j’s, so imma have to go with the 1’s, and the patent leather on em. come on man. 1’s all day
6’s all day
this was too easy. im mad this was even a comp. ALL patent leather only looked good on the Black n Gold. but enhanced, all patent leather bred dunks cant touch the beauty of White/Navy with an icy sole and accent of Red. YOUR CRAZY
Gotta go with the 1’s.
They’re a classic and started the whole Air Jordan Line.
But the 6’s are still dope though.
Men, forget wat ya say the 1’s r raw than the 6′ Olympic.The 6’s is aight but the 1’s kills the 6’s.

dammmmm!!!!! Yo dis is a hard 1 um pretty sure if u dnt have eitha one there bof on ya wish list BUT!!!!! Uma go wif da OLYs on dis 1 hands dwn
The I’s started it all and VI’s is where he won his first championship they are both sick but to me all patent leather Jordan I’s just look cheap when u see ‘em in person. The VI’s on the other hand just look sick!. This is an easy one for me VI’s all day.
I have been a huge fan of the Js in the 5-8 range cuz they are so how…the 1 was the usual Nike style of the time but as the sneaks developed jordan startedd to take a form of its own and VIs exemplify that. Thet Is are tough but hands down VI’s. they go in all day
i gotta give it to thee orginals on this one
Is This A Retorical Question.. ??
THE FUCKIN 6′S ALL THE FUCKIN WAY
dis is a hella easy decision..da 6z all da way
I actually went with the 1s here. I think the design of the 6s may be a little better, but i took the colorways into consideration and i figured the 1s look better all around with the patent leather and the classic bull’s colorway.
I would definatly go with the 1s, its a pretty easy decision
olympic 6
6’s no doubt!!
you can rock em wayyy better!
All yall pple is buggin…. the 6’s are good money but the 1’s is a classic soo Yeah cyphe goin with the 1’s
The 1’s and the 6’s are about a tie but i gotta go wit da 6’s,
6(4.96 out of 5) 1(4.89 out of 5)
The 1s kill the 6s. Don’t get me wrong, the 6s are dope, but the 1s started it all off, so the 1s for me.
sixes r like da sexiest jays i mean da tounge is sick da lacelocks n da shapes on da sole but dis colorway sucks f’n mangina!!
I have to say back in february ‘09. I voted for the VI’s but I have to change my vote if I can those patent leather I’s r too sick + the Olympic VI’s these days will break down on u they came out in ‘01. The patent leather I’s all day.
i say its a tie dammit
This was a easy one i had to pick the ones man its just somthin about those kicks i think there the best Air Jordan’s of all time if you u ask me. Yeah the patent leather I’s all day. 1
