Air Jordan Retro 9 “Powder Blue” OG March 23, 2024

[Remy LeBeau]

This is a wild take. Hitting just above the knee is now "And-1 mixtape" baggy?

The unifrom joints are like 11 inches, naw b

Yeah, Nike shortened up the NBA shorts a little a few years back but the NCAA shorts are still dumb long. They also have a very high crotch which makes them even worse. I’d even be cool with a 7-8” inseam, but 11 is awful. I’ve been without a wearable pair of UNC shorts for far too long.

When I saw they weren’t selling out at places I held off. H headdetective has me aiming for around $150ish baby

Excellent plan sir, you’ll definitely hit that price point with patience

jordans og colorways that are due for a retro

As for Raukuten it was only 2%.

It changed to 10% this afternoon.

That’s pretty good. These are everywhere so I’m hoping for a huge Easter sale from somewhere. I blame H headdetective for putting it in my mind.

Once I decided I wanted to at least see them in person, I figured pull now and I can wait a bit to rock them to see if they go on sale. I prefer doing it that way rather than potentially missing the price drop and finding my size is suddenly gone. In the end, I’ll get the savings and eliminate any chance, no matter how small, that I’m asleep at the wheel and miss out if and when a big price drop occurs.

now, let’s get JB to cancel the Olives and do the Charcoals instead. This will be the FOURTH time we’ve gotten Olives, but we’ve only gotten Charcoals twice. Plus the last Olives retro was more recent. I don’t get it either cause in 94 the Charcoals were absolutely much more popular than the Olives.

they can drop both

Walked into snipes and got my pair. Happy birthday to me. Saw a lot of chrome and toro VIs on feet today and bred and university gold IXs. The gentleman that waited on me said he wasn’t going to buy these because of no 23 on the back.

…you filthy sneaker animal.

Add the September Blue 6s and White/true blue/red 3s … and I would love to see either the oxidized XIVs or Indiglo XIVs drop too … as a former Jordan retro collector from the 1999-2006 era a Grape V release true to OG form would be insane!!! I remember the hype from ‘06 about the Grapes the first shoe I had to pay resell for and this was AT the mall in line waiting to get them. That was my last Jordan till about 2014 .. resell never again lol

The 06 Grape V was a chaotic release.. Most places
were only allowing reservations. I had to buy an overpriced t-shirt to reserve a pair. Also, they were 10 dollars more because they were LS. I am glad this IX release isn’t hyped up!! JB listened to the consumers and put out a project that the original collectors can enjoy.

Canada as well? If so still doesn’t matter as I would have already had them in hand. I wouldn’t have waited to purchase a pair in the hopes of getting 10% cash back unless I knew well in advance of the release. Hope you got to use it though, that’s some good cash back.

 

[big daddy 8523]

I woke up to go get my Footlocker order 30 mins away. Remembered my daughter needed softball gear and had to wait a little to get her stuff. Before I left the house SNKRS is like still available on an email. I said F it and ordered from there. Hopefully someone enjoys that pair I left there. I also didn't have to pay Tennessee tax!

No idea because I don’t live in Canada. I applied it to the pair I bought, though.

 

[noblekane]

got damn the toe box on these is more narrow than my 2016 white black pair.

might be impossible for me to wear these with my long *** spreading toes.

Did you put the red laces on them like you said you were?


I remember you said you were going to call them “From UNC to Chicago”.

 

[headdetective]

Nasty thoughts

[queese23]

You can’t stop him, you can only hope to contain him.

I ordered a pair of size 14 and 15 today, I knew they would not last long and bigger sizes.

So 2 different sizes not even half sizes lol..

[allergic2broke]

Big sizes disappearing off sneakers

 

[syko.VIP]

Dropped into DSG yesterday but sold out of my size. Just scooped a pair off SNKRS at retail. Looks like online boutiques miiight hit disco but dont see these lasting in footstores or nike

 

[OldManJays]

End of the year is going to be expensive with BC3, black toe 14’s, and the Columbia 11. Aren’t Royal foams dropping around then too?
