Air Jordan fans rejoice! The highly sought-after Air Jordan 9 “Powder Blue” is officially returning after a 14-year hiatus. Scheduled for a March 23rd release via Nike SNKRS and select retailers, this iconic silhouette stays true to its 1993 and 2010 predecessors, offering a timeless design for sneakerheads and Jordan enthusiasts alike.
A Nostalgic Blast from the Past:
Originally released in 1993, the Air Jordan 9 “Powder Blue” was one of four OG colorways. This iteration pays homage to Michael Jordan’s alma mater, the University of North Carolina Tar Heels, with its striking blue accents.
Staying True to Its Roots:
The 2024 version remains faithful to the original. Featuring a crisp white leather upper with geometric perforations and a contrasting black mesh tongue, this shoe delivers a classic aesthetic. Hints of “Powder Blue” on the tongue branding and midsole add a touch of vibrancy, while the white rubber outsole with the iconic Jumpman logo completes the look. Notably, just like the original, this release won’t feature the “#23” on the heels.
