Take a Look at the Jordan 9 Retro Cool Sneakers
The original Air Jordan 9 was released in November 1993, roughly one month after MJ announced his retirement from basketball. The retail price in the US was $125. The first Air Jordan 9 retro release took place in 2002 and included the first low-top version of the AJ 9. Additional retro releases followed every two years beginning in 2008, then annually starting in 2015 though the present day. In 2016, Nike released the Air Jordan 9 OG, which included the Space Jam model that celebrated the movie's 20th anniversary. Nike continues to announce more retro releases for the future.
History of Air Jordan 9
In 1993, the Air Jordan 9 hit the court for the first time, though Michael Jordan never scored a single point with the Chicago Bulls wearing the shoe. When Jordan surprised the world with news of his retirement on October 6, 1993, the AJ 9 was already in production. Nike had no choice but to move forward with the release even though the most famous feet in basketball had seemingly left the court forever.
Jordan 9 Retro Cool Grey 2012
First introduced in 2002, the Jordan 9 Retro Cool Grey made a comeback in 2012. Nike created this high-top sneaker with cool and medium gray. The body of the shoe is made with nubuck and patent leather. The translucent rubber outsole complements the sneakers nicely. Bright white accents stand out on a gray background and can be found on the midsole, the 23 on the heel of the shoe, and the laces.
