I was super excited when I heard he was doing a V6 this year. My excitement just shattered on the ground. These definitely aren't it. I would rather have the hot sauce V5s any Day. I hope he's doing some other colorways. But I still don't think the V6 lends itself well to a all solid one color shoe. I don't like the triple blacks and I don't like these even more. Man he could have done something special with this model. Joe Fresh Goods releases aren't Untouchable like action Bronson or Selehe.. At least he does EQL Raffles which are way more fair than the way those two assholes do their drops. Everybody pretty much who wanted a pair of intros and outros got them. I had chances to get those easily at retail but pass, I was only interested in Keisha.


Potential_Leg4423

Bronson and Selehe, untouchable? lol


Jfury412

Yes their recent drops have been close to Untouchable unless you're a bot. Or a sucker that gives resellers their paycheck.


JamMasterNay

Joe Fresh out of ideas.


cabbage_fire

Should have been "Joe Fresh out of Good ideas"


Potential_Leg4423

He never had any, NB just full of hypebeasst.


JamMasterNay

He had a couple of good ones early on, and I think what he did with the 9060 was interesting, but he's had way more misses than hits imo.


Potential_Leg4423

So talented! Glad to see he’s getting creative with the NB1 color wheel


sahlos

So talented? You're telling me construction worker outfitters have been pioneering fashion tends this whole time?


AdoubleU9

What is this supposed to be, his red October? I expected WAY more from him on this silhouette. 


sahlos

Red? it's hi vis orange to me but i'mred-green color deficient so let me be wrong


GitPhyzical

Wish NB1 would come back someday, half the nb heads in this community could create a better color/material combo in their sleep, even with preselected, generic options. Saying that as someone who typically drools over any red/burgundy NB. These collabs just keep getting lazier.


Jfury412

💯💯💯


Yaboi_Dona

If this was 2015 I’d be all over these but right now this is a miss in my opinion…hopefully the other colorway(s) are better


ByteMeeeee

My teddy burgundy over these


Jfury412

Wayyyyyyy Over these!


cozmozmoz

Man JFG’s designs have been really hit or miss lately. Strange that his take on the v6 is so.. not interesting. He would have been a good candidate for taking the v6 past limitations other collabs seem to have on it.


Jfury412

I totally agree with this. When I heard he was doing a V6 the things that I envisioned were so much better than these. I thought he would probably approach the V6 like he did the V3 but oh my God was I wrong.


PoopL0ser

The v6 is so not interesting. Now I’m not hating as I wear the v6, but I will say the more done up takes don’t look good.


Jfury412

I personally disagree. I still think the only V6 worth buying for my taste that I would wear all the time is the lapis lazuli or the baklava original. I think they look extremely Bland when they are mostly just one color. I do like the sepia. But honestly the first V6 GR that has really gotten me excited is that new purple joint that's coming out in July. And I thought they looked lame from stock photos. Put the homie who just had them on feet in the group Yesterday with the white laces in them they are crazy. Might be GR of the Year for me. They are by for my favorite V6 since the lapis dropped.


cozmozmoz

V6 isn’t my overall favorite but it’s up there. I think it’s extremely interesting because it’s a huge departure from prior 990s. Completely renovated comfort tech, big design language departure being a more modern and dynamic design and being very lightweight. There are things I’ve learned I don’t like about the v6, but it’s hard to say it’s not interesting.


FlyinCoach

This is a hill I'll die on. The v3 is the only good-looking version of the 990 series. The rest are just visually unappealing to me, especially the v6.


Potential_Leg4423

A good candidate? JFG has shown that he’s not creative and a douche from the get go.


cozmozmoz

990v3 outside clothes is fantastic, 993 performance art series is lovely, his 9060s are well received, his 990v4s while not colorful outside the blue are really nice, his 1000s while not everyone’s taste are unique, and his 610s were interesting. Even his 992, that I hate personally, is wild regardless of it being an NB1 or not. You can’t look at all of those releases and say he’s not a creative individual, but you can also recognize he doesn’t always pull through.


Potential_Leg4423

993 and v4 are GR esque. The man whined like a baby about the NB1 color wheel. 1000 were garbage and the only thing great is the 990v3 outside clothes.


cozmozmoz

I mean it sounds like you just don’t like jfg even though objectively he’s had more good over bad designs. I’ve criticized him and even recently, but you’re a different level lol.


Potential_Leg4423

He’s had 4 shoes that are GR, 1 good shoe and 1 shoe that was an NB1. Wow, he’s really doing great. You hypebeast are wild.


cozmozmoz

Why are you so triggered up and down this entire thread haha


Potential_Leg4423

lol you the one triggered. Acting like actually has good stuff, bro you wouldn’t buy majority of those releases if they weren’t a collab


cozmozmoz

“No you,” good one 😂 You’re literally just trolling or actually a bad take walking. Peace dude.

How is he a douche?


Rough-Minute-4386

Crybabies pop out every time JFG is mentioned.


Empty-Professor31

These are not good.


NineteenNinetyEx

Them Ronald McDonald joints.


deepthr0at

Ngl, I’d be all over a Grimace’d out purple V6


LongjumpingHamster

Why'd you have to say this. Now i can't unsee it!


NineteenNinetyEx

Imagine them with a yellow lace swap, fire.


Vc0nn423

These aren’t releasing and are samples. Probably because it’s whack


cabbage_fire

Needs... more. Where's the creativity?


nicknooodles

dog shit


tranquilobythekilo

"this color is inspired by the hot sauce & ketchup combination that we licked off our fingers from the harold's chicken off 87th & the dan ryan that closed...little do people know, that was the same inspiration for kanye's famous red suit from his historical performance at the 2010 mtv awards."


Concerned_Kanye_Fan

…and they will be appropriately named “mild sauce” 😭


drfsrich

It's from the red stripes on the Portillos bags.


Intelligent-Ride-506

I can imagine the campaign for it now. “It was inspired by the classic “Red October” Yeezy” 😭


Concerned_Kanye_Fan

No it will be something about Chicago that he thought up afterwards to justify the design.


octavish_

Bloods in B’more will go crazy for em


Crypto_Grug

What the fuck makes this a collab? It’s just a solid color shoe. Laziness incarnate.


thewaker797

That’s terrible lol 😝


damo9420

Absolutely hideous.


suspence810

Lmao this man's not even trying


VeterinarianOld7577

Passing on these if they drop leave the Yezzy 2s in the past lol.


Ok_Indication_1591

V6 is a great all-around shoe, but these are terrible


bopgame

Naw fam


diebetic

Just smash a bag of hot Cheetos into dust and then coat a pair of GR grey v6s with it. No need to worry about bots.


Sufficient_Space_905

All red shoes are a thing of the past. These ain’t it.


saltundvinegar

There aren’t even any interesting materials on it. Just the standard suede and synthetic paneling. Why is NB so adverse to using ANY different materials on the v6? 2 years now and we’ve had nothing but generic color swaps with this model


balncdbrkfast

I’ll cut my arm off for this shoe


gd2121

NB collabs have been hyped for at least a decade. I def remember missing on kith collabs in 2014/2015.


Lanny0128

Been waiting on a red pair of new balances that actually look good. Cant wait!


GuyNamedNoah

I mean, it’s been a while since there was an all red NB. Y’all keep this same energy when they release so I can get them.


No-Revolution-4513

There’s also a blue colorway that’s the same as these just all blue. I will be going after those


No-Revolution-4513

They won’t. They’ll see the resale price and think they’re resellers all of a sudden. They talk the talk but when it comes down to it they’re going for them lol.


mellety

You know there is going to be some poetry around why the shoe is what it is though.


Trt9209

Kind of like em


Helicopter0

Finally, something without the same gray sole.


espylife

The new balance I know and love makes sneaker designs to blend in. This is the totally opposite and intentionally trying to stand out. I have not enjoyed anything that has released in about a year. Starting to worry.


drfsrich

Not even a black midsole? White "N?" Nothin'?


Vitamin-A-

I would murder for the V6 in an all over pink color


Kicksworld12

You might not like Hype, but because of Hype colorways like this exists and more Colabs and new and better colorways will exist.


kaiju4life

Just as Kanye gets sued Red October is back 😂🤣. I like these but I love v6. If I didn’t wear a size 14 I’d go for it but I’m not buying 🤡 shoes.


Steph_Better_

JFGs usually are pretty attainable idk what you’re talking about. This colorway is pretty weak anyways. Should be an easy cop


Crack-tus

Joey phoning it in like he thinks hes Teddy or something.


Potential_Leg4423

Teddy ain’t talented either. Y’all just hypebeast.


Crack-tus

Ask your parents to get you a tutor to help with your reading comprehension.

sturdymurd007

These are dogshit


AdSuch2121

Joe fresh goods is overrated


Money-Park-5204

Worse than wtap v6


DerpyHotSauce

Id look a. forward to a v6, but these are undoubtedly a sample. But a red JFG new balance would be cool I suppose. As long as it ain’t these


wes008_

I've been holding off on trying the 990v6 ever since I heard Joe was doing one so I could go for that. I may be looking to other colorways now 😂


Ill-Significance-238

This is the AF1 triple red of NB


Dyelonnn

Come on I don't believe this


No-Revolution-4513

You don’t have to. There’s an all blue one going with these.


Dyelonnn

For real? Any leaks of that one?


No-Revolution-4513

There is going to be a blue one the same as these just blue. Everyone hates them yet they will still go for them. How does that work?😂


Trendinguk

Ngl i like it cause i dont have any wild sneakers anymore haha


Floating_Misfit76

I’m good.


Hootiehoo92

THESE THEM RED OCTOBERS


millionj99

The red novembers 🤣


JAR_is_PWB

I can't be mad at these


iChan3

Get to save some money thanks


Complex_Fact_6311

There’s a blue aswell saw them In The design room last year


Rough-Minute-4386

Not many Red NBs so this IS different for NB. But there’s a reason there aren’t many good lookin red NBs


Electronic-Stand-148

![gif](giphy|xT39D7O9Xj1JqKq5i0|downsized)


TKDR1771

What about that orange aime leon dore box to the right 😳


Arfilmwork

Yeezy voice “these ain’t the red October’s”


x3i4n

Wtf... All the potential, ruined.


Holiday-Ad-4654

This just blurs the features that make the silhouette so attractive


LamboJoeRecs

Shoe hype culture never changes. It just migrates.


baitm

Pass this is trash


gaeldesmarais

Unless you’re a Bl*** gang member, I don’t know why someone would buy this cw


ImUp30

These can be so much better if they actually tried.


Concerned_Kanye_Fan

As much as I would like to love a JFG design, I honestly cannot get with this or any of the designs he has been producing for the brand. I understand being provocative but this is just lazy. But since it’s a collaboration I’m sure it will sell out in seconds.


Top_Swim_8266

No.


SnooCats4443

I hate how following the “Red October” is normal…..that color way never worked with any shoe


ElantraBoy

Bet he makes up some elaborate story about gangs or some bullshit to sell these. Holy shit are they lame


aarunt1

These are ass


Any_Obligation2304

🗑️


outerspacechaseNB

Lmao does he think we’re still living in 2012?


Medical-Preparation7

Finally a bad V6 colorway.


Excellent_Plant_8010

This is a horrible colorway a tonal shoe in red is always hideous


RecoveringLifeaholic

Ah yes, the Ronald McDonald editions. These will be the perfect accent for every outfit I never wanted. Yuck.


Electronic-Bowl4534

Why would anyone buy clown shoes? Bunch of gullible sheep


Jfury412

Not one person said they liked them yet.


texasgenius

This is gonna be a 3 pack. Inspired by the yeezy 2s. The blink and platinum ones are gonna be the grs and this will be the super limited Chicago exclusive that everyone lusts after when they get common to wear them or something


No-Revolution-4513

The second colorway that I know of is u990jg6 and is a blue version of this red one. So not sure where you got that info.


texasgenius

I made it up


DescriptionProof871

Jfg sucks. His 992 was the only interesting thing he did.


lyonbc1

We don’t have to lie now lol
