Nike is gearing up for the highly anticipated Air Jordan 9 retro release in March. Ahead of that, sneaker enthusiasts and Michael Jordan‘s fans have been given an early treat with the recent drop of the first Air Jordan 9 of the year. The brand seems to have decided to make the return of these iconic designs more powerful with the golf shoes.

Making a return to the market, the Air Jordan 9 Golf edition will feature its original White, Black, and True Red colorway. Staying true to American designer Tinker Hatfield’s original version of the Air Jordan 9 from 1993 to 1994, these sneakers bring a sense of nostalgia more than ever. And, perhaps, there is no better way to start than the release of the Air Jordan 9 Golf.

Priced at $230, these shoes are scheduled for release on February 23, 2024. The sneakers will be different from the retro version that was released almost a decade earlier in 2016. Rather, as mentioned, the designs will lean more toward Hatfield’s creation, as per sneakernews.com.

47-year-old American golfer Pat Perez, who has a massive collection of Jordan sneakers, debuted the Air Jordan 9 ‘True Red’ in a recent competition. The Air Jordan 9 holds a special place in the hearts of sneaker enthusiasts. It debuted in 1994. As the ninth installment version in Jordan’s iconic Air Jordan signature sneaker line, it has become a timeless symbol of athletic prowess and style.

Hatfield’s innovative design has breathed Jordan’s global influence and sporting legacy into the Air Jordan 9. Following the golf shoes, the Powder Blue Air Jordan 9 is also set to hit the market in March 2024.

A brief look at the Air Jordan 9

Notably, the Air Jordan 9 was also chosen for the iconic Jordan statue, “The Spirit,” erected in front of the Chicago Bulls’ United Center on November 1st, 1994, immortalizing a significant chapter in basketball history.

These shoes were worn by Jordan during practice sessions and various games. The newest iteration of the Powder Blue version introduces subtle yet impactful changes, such as Jordan’s jersey number 23 will not be featured on the shoe.

Priced at $210, the Powder Blue Air Jordan 9 is just yet another example of artistic innovation and Jordan’s legacy. Have you seen the golfing Kicks yet? What are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments section below.
