Not in a decade has Deeetroit Basketball been so downtrodden. Coming to the end of a season where they paid $90 million for two free agents who helped them get really close to the bottom of the East, this shoe might be the only consolation. The Detroit Pistons Air Jordan VI is a reminder of the team who tormented Mike in the early part of his career. In each of the Bad Boys’ two title runs, they sent the Bulls packing, but the third time was the charm in 1991. That’s when MJ rocked the AJVI en route to a sweep over the Pistons in the conference finals. So the memories are bittersweet, but this unique suede-on-patent design should satisfy any sneakerhead’s sweettooth. These are officially slated as an April release, but you can cop them early from Sneaker XB on eBay.
