Air Jordan 6 Retro 'Cigar'
Championship Smoke. Victory Gold.
The Air Jordan 6 Retro 'Cigar' is one of the most storied colorways in Jordan Brand history — a direct reference to the post-championship celebrations where Michael Jordan was photographed with a cigar, gold championship trophy in hand, having just delivered another title to Chicago. Gold, brown, and the warm tones of victory. This is the shoe that commemorates what winning looks like at the highest level.
Style number 384664-250.
The Story Behind the Colorway
The 'Cigar' colorway is named after one of the most iconic images in NBA history: Michael Jordan, in the locker room after a championship victory, celebrating the way champions do. The gold and tobacco brown tones translate that image into a shoe — warm, rich, and unmistakably connected to a specific moment of triumph. It's the AJ6, which MJ wore to his first championship in 1991, recolored in the palette of celebration itself. There's no other Jordan colorway quite like it for the directness of its cultural reference.

Why the 'Cigar' AJ6 Is a Collector's Essential
The 'Cigar' colorway sits in a category of Jordan releases that carry specific narrative weight — not just a color choice, but a direct reference to a moment in basketball history. For collectors who build their rotation around shoes with stories, the 'Cigar' AJ6 is non-negotiable. The warm gold and brown palette also makes it one of the most distinctive AJ6 colorways in terms of wearability — it pairs naturally with earth tones, olive, cream, and black, and looks unlike any other Jordan 6 in the lineup. There's nothing else in the AJ6 catalog that looks, or means, quite the same thing.
