Nike is selling the Air Jordan 9 Retro Boots in Black/True Red/Light Olive for $230 on Nike.com. The winter-minded Jordan 9 has a leather upper, gusseted tongue, metal eyelets, a heavy tread and Air Zoom units in the heel and forefoot.
Nike is selling the Air Jordan 9 Retro Boots in Black/True Red/Light Olive, style code AR4491-012, on its website for $230. It is the Jordan 9 reworked as a cold-weather boot, in a palette built around black with olive and red accents.
The starting point is Michael Jordan's ninth signature game shoe, designed by Tinker Hatfield and released in 1993. Nike describes the boot as a blend of elements from the Special Field Boot and that shoe, with a rugged build meant to handle rough weather without giving up the classic look.
Here is what the product page lists. The upper is leather, textile and plastic, and the tongue is gusseted. The eyelets are metal, which Nike says allows quick lacing, and the laces are round. There is a heel pull and a molded foam sockliner. The outsole is sticky rubber with a heavy tread for grip on varied surfaces, and Air Zoom units in the heel and forefoot provide lightweight cushioning. Nike notes the boots are not intended for use as personal protective equipment.
The same product page also lists three other colorways: Anthracite/Multi-Color, Black/Gum Light Brown and Wheat/Baroque Brown.
The boots are sold on Nike.com. Nike Members get free standard shipping on orders of $50 or more and free 60-day returns, subject to the return policy exclusions. Pickup is available at select Nike stores. No other retail listing appears on the official page, so online is the main route for New Yorkers shopping for this pair.
