Jordan 9 Retro Cool Grey

The Jordan 9 Retro Cool Grey is a grey nubuck 9 with black detailing, one of the cleanest colourways on a model most people overlook. Buy it if you want a Jordan that reads mature rather than hyped.

The 9 was the first Jordan released after his first retirement, and the outsole carries words in multiple languages referencing his global reach. The upper is nubuck over a substantial midsole with an inner bootie construction, which makes it one of the better-fitting Jordans out of the box.

Cool Grey is about as versatile as the 9 gets. It works with black, navy, olive, cream and denim, and grey nubuck hides creasing and scuffing far better than any white or light leather.

The 9 is consistently underrated. It has the same build quality as the models either side of it and a fraction of the resale competition, which means you pay closer to fair value.

Sizes 6.5 and 12, one pair each. Deadstock, verified in hand at our Dallas location. Jordan 9s fit true to size.
