Air Jordan 9 Retro "Cool Grey" 2025 HV4794-011

The Air Jordan 9 Retro “Cool Grey” makes a long-awaited return, reviving one of the most celebrated non-OG colourways in Jordan Brand history. First introduced in 2002, this edition holds a special place in sneaker culture, as the only AJ9 worn by Michael Jordan in the NBA during his time with the Washington Wizards. Its clean grey palette draws inspiration from the Air Jordan 11 “Cool Grey” from 2001, offering a refined alternative to the usual Chicago Bulls-themed releases.

Dressed in smooth nubuck, the upper features glossy patent leather overlays, adding a sleek contrast to the monochromatic design. The Jumpman logo sits on the lateral midsole, while MJ’s iconic “23” and the globe emblem appear on the heel, nodding to his global influence. The one-pull lacing system ensures a snug, secure fit, while dual Nike Air units in the polyurethane midsole provide exceptional cushioning.

Underfoot, the storytelling traction pattern showcases words in multiple languages, reflecting Jordan’s worldwide impact on the game. Whether you’re collecting or wearing, the AJ9 “Cool Grey” remains a standout, bringing nostalgia and modern comfort in one package. Expect a UK release soon—this drop won’t last long.
