Fluorescent lime green highlights provide a captivating contrast to the otherwise dark tones of this stealthy Jordan 6 Retro, giving it a lively aesthetic. This can be seen on the outsole, which has a largely black section running from its toe through the middle of the foot with semi-translucent pieces tinged white angling in from each side of the forefoot. Another jagged-edged rubber panel cuts across the heel, which has an opaque black tip, before a large Electric Green Jumpman flashes through the centre of the outsole. Traction is then delivered by the circular indentations of varying sizes found scattered across both the heel and the forefoot, while a surprising luminescence lights up the translucent rubber in certain conditions as it is made of glow-in-the-dark material.

The midsole, meanwhile, brings together the three hues decorating the shoe, firstly with the semi-translucent parts, whose slightly off-white tone appears in the forefoot and again on the heel, where it forms a frame around the visible Air window placed there. Layered over the top of each of these is a strip of Electric Green polyurethane, while the rest of the midsole is completely black. As well as the pocket of Air apparent in the heel, there is also one hidden in the forefoot, thus supplying maximum comfort from tip to toe.

Moving upwards, dark tones prevail once more as the lavish nubuck upper is black throughout. This includes on the toe, the flanks, the sidewall overlays and the heel covering. The last piece encompasses the back portion of the shoe all the way to the front of the collar. Here, three thickly embossed diagonal lines extend back towards the ankle on each side, where they meet a raised pad filled with large perforations and surrounded by smaller ones. These bulky structures add both breathability and protection, while the extra aeration holes in the flanks and tongue make for an incredibly comfortable design.

Inside, the soft inner lining and insole have a similar effect, delivering cosy comfort around the foot. An Electric Green Jumpman has been printed onto the sockliner for a colourful touch, with more bold transitions in tone showing up on the outer as well. In fact, the same arrangement adorns the top of the foot as the black lace shroud has had a similarly vibrant Jumpman woven through it. Just above this, the lace toggle reverses the tonal presentation with a neon green background and a black Jumpman in its centre, but behind it, the tongue is fully black. Two windows have been pressed into this feature, and Air Jordan text has been embossed along its top edge. At the back of the foot, a final splash of Electric Green forms a band through the centre of the black pull tab that curves out of the heel. Below this, a more subtle set of branding has been located in the centre of the heel in the form of an embroidered Jumpman and the word “Air”, both of which come in black to complete the smooth look of this Air Jordan 6.
