Air Jordan 9 White/Powder Blue Detailed Photos

702 days ago - by Alex Kroviak - 67 comments

When news of the revival of the Air Jordan 9 in White/Powder Blue broke, the response from readers was overwhelming. Having only returned as a Fusion before, this shoe and colorway holds a special place in the hearts of many. To follow up our first look, we now have these detailed photos, which should serve to build your anticipation even more, if nothing else.

As we know, white leather is in place for the upper while Powder Blue works its way on to the tooling of the sole. The sole shows traits associated with Michael Jordan in various languages from all across the world. For a full list of the attributes, consult the Air Jordan 9 page. No exact release date has been given for this shoe just yet, but will you be after a pair when they finally do drop?

Michael Jeffrey Jordan
(born February 17, 1963) is a retired American professional basketball player and active businessman. His biography on the National Basketball Association (NBA)
website states, “By acclamation, Michael Jordan is the greatest basketball player of all time.” Jordan was one of the most effectively marketed athletes of his generation and was instrumental in popularizing the NBA around the world in the 1980s and 1990s.
After a standout career at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he led the Tar Heels to a National Championship in 1982, Jordan
joined the NBA’s Chicago Bulls in 1984. He quickly emerged as a league star, entertaining crowds with his prolific scoring. His leaping ability, illustrated by performing slam dunks from the free throw line in slam dunk contests, earned him the nicknames “Air Jordan” and “His Airness”. He also gained a reputation for being one of the best defensive players in basketball. In 1991, he won his first NBA championship with the Bulls, and followed that achievement with titles in 1992 and 1993, securing a “three-peat”. Although Jordan abruptly retired from basketball at the beginning of the 1993–94 NBA season to pursue a career in baseball, he rejoined the Bulls in 1995 and led them to three additional championships (1996, 1997, and 1998)
as well as an NBA-record 72 regular-season wins in the 1995-96 NBA season. Jordan retired for a second time in 1999, but returned for two more NBA seasons in 2001 as a member of the Washington Wizards.
Jordan’s individual accolades and accomplishments include five MVP awards
, ten All-NBA First Team designations, nine All-Defensive First Team honors, fourteen NBA All-Star Game appearances, three All-Star Game MVP awards, ten scoring titles, three steals titles, six NBA Finals MVP awards, and the 1988 NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award. He holds the NBA records for highest career regular-season scoring average (30.12 points per game) and highest career playoff scoring average (33.4 points per game). In 1999, he was named the greatest North American athlete of the 20th century by ESPN
, and was second to Babe Ruth on the Associated Press’s list of athletes of the century. He was elected to the Basketball Hall of Fame on April 6, 2009 and was inducted on September 11, 2009.
Jordan is also noted for his product endorsements
. He fueled the success of Nike’s Air Jordan sneakers, which were introduced in 1985 and remain popular today. Jordan also starred in the 1996 feature film Space Jam as himself. He is currently part-owner and head of basketball operations for the NBA’s Charlotte Bobcats, and recently won a bidding war to buy controlling interest in the team from founding owner Robert L. Johnson .

I already ordered a pair last week and I got the shipping confirmation email last night meaning that they shipped out last night. So, I got one pair on the way as I’m writing this and I’m definitely copping another pair when they released. I heard these were dropping in June. So, I’m definitely doubling up on these. These are too hot not to double up on. These are ridiculous.
