Jordan Boys Retro 9

International StyleThe Boys' Preschool Air Jordan 9 Retro is Michael Jordan's ninth signature model in sizing for little children. Originally released in 1993-94, the iconic Jordan 9 is notable to Air Jordan history because it was the first model released during Jordan's first retirement from basketball after the 1992-93 season. It holds a distinct place as the only Air Jordan that he never wore on court in a game among his early models. The Jordan 9 was designed by Tinker Hatfield, the legendary Nike designer that created many of the brand's most classic and innovative sneakers of all time. The design was inspired by Jordan's international fame, featuring a unique Jumpman globe logo on the heel, as well as messages in multiple languages referencing Jordan's career on the outsole. Take Flight Michael Jordan may have never laced up the Air Jordan 9 on court himself, but the shoe still stands today as one of the most popular Air Jordan retro designs. The AJ9 has become a favorite sneaker off the court for Jordan collectors thanks to its clean look and great comfort.
