While Michael Jordan did take some time away from the NBA in the '90s to play baseball, Nike continued to launch new Air Jordan sneakers. The Air Jordan 9 was the first model to launch when MJ wasn't lacing up his sneakers for the Chicago Bulls, leading to the sneaker having a legendary status and its design informed by the sport of baseball. One of the first non-OG colorways of the Air Jordan 9 and one of the only pairs MJ played basketball in, the Jordan 9 Cool Grey, is finally returning.
The Air Jordan 9 Cool Grey will release on March 15, 2025, for $210 in men's sizing and $160 in GS. Here is everything you need to know to buy the Air Jordan 9 Retro Cool Grey on release day.
