I remember seeing these olive 9s in retail stores in '93. Early Fall of 2002, a local sporting goods store I've shopped at since '95, had a large week long going out of business tent sale in their parking lot. I stopped by one day, and they had the olive 9s on a steep discounted sale for $65. I passed because it wasn't my type of colorway. I went back 2 days later, and they were still sitting. When I saw they were coming back this year, I was thinking about that tent sale and wondered if they sold all of those pairs or returned them back to Nike. This was also the same sporting goods store where I bought my black toe AJ14 for $149.99. I miss those retail prices.

As usual, another great overall video review!! Thank you to Mr. Chris and Mrs. Jodi for their efforts. Very much appreciated as always. The Air Jordan IX 9 model is one of favorite Air Jordan shoes and a bit underrated. To me, the 9's will always be "the first retirement" shoes. I still remember that Nike commercial with Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley which featured the black and white 9. I still have my original AJ IX "olive" pair. DS. I am hoping to pick up at least one pair of these. Hopefully two. And patiently awaiting for a proper retro of the Air Jordan IX 9 "charcoal" model. As for as I know, there has only been ONE retro of that shoe.

I think the sizing tip is 1/2 size up I doubled up on black toe 14s no problem, these Nike didn’t want to accept mine or my buddies payment neither one of ours. Luckily I was able to go get my 11 1/2 from Snipes and I have a second pair that’s at 11 and I tried them on and they definitely I was smart enough to size up in both pair of powders because OG color weighs then if they go on sale, I could take them back and get the lower of the prices. But i recommend 1/2 size up it’s not the length of the shoe it’s the top part where whether you have a wide foot or not it doesn’t matter it pinches the top of your foot. If you’re not roomy enough in the width, it’s a narrow shoe.. I don’t know why that eight and tens are all wide shoes, wide foot friendly.

For comparison’s sake, I have Js I, XI, XII, XIII and Air More Uptempo 96 all in 10.5 which is my TTS, they all fit great. Js VI I went down half a size to 10 and fit perfectly. Air Max 90 I go up half a size to 11 and fit well. Knowing this, would you still recommend to go up half a size to 11 on this ones too? I’m just over taking this kind of advice from the internet, someone with a KZbin channel advised to get Js XII half size down, and they turned out to fit me wrong, it was a hustle to get the 10.5 since they went out real fast. I can’t try them on store since they’re only available online in my current whereabouts, by the time you get them on the mail this kind of shoe is sold out so you can’t get them replaced for the right size. Actually they sell within the first 3 to 5 min I’d say. Thanks
