Air Jordan 9 Returns to Retro for the 25th Anniversary

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 25th Anniversary 2012

The Jordan brand celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2010 with the release of the almost entirely white 25th Anniversary colorway in 2012. A full-grain leather upper coats this sneaker in all white, covering the heel, toe, and a strip of the side panels with a mudguard. Textured slots on the side panels provide the Air Jordan 9 release with its signature character, and white continues on the tongue, laces, toe top, inner sock liner. and midsole. A Metallic Silver Jordan Jumpman logo is stamped into the lateral side of the outsole and again on the outsole's bottom tread. Metallic silver appears on the heel, where it acts as a background for the Jordan Globe emblem and coats the number 23 in color.
