Air Jordan 6 Retro 'Cigar' — The Taste of Championship
The Air Jordan 6 Retro 'Cigar' (384664-250) is one of the most storied and symbolically rich colorways in the entire Jordan Brand catalog. Released to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Michael Jordan's first NBA Championship with the Chicago Bulls in 1991, the 'Cigar' colorway references the post-game celebration tradition of champions lighting up in the locker room — a ritual MJ participated in after each of his six titles.
Design & Colorway
The 'Cigar' wraps the Air Jordan 6 in a warm, celebratory tan/gold/black palette that evokes the colors of aged tobacco, champagne, and championship gold. The tan and gold upper shimmers with a warmth that feels genuinely triumphant — a color combination that reads like victory made material. Black accents on the pull tab, midsole details, and outsole provide the grounding contrast that keeps the colorway from becoming too precious, while gold detailing throughout reinforces the championship theme from every angle.

The 1991 Championship Legacy
The Air Jordan 6 was the shoe Michael Jordan wore when he won his first NBA Championship in 1991 — ending years of near-misses and silencing every critic who said he couldn't win the big one. The 'Cigar' colorway is an explicit celebration of that moment, of the locker room after the final buzzer, of the champagne and the relief and the joy of finally reaching the summit. Wearing it is wearing that history on your feet.
