Still has that banana inspired shape that we've been getting since the cdp’s. It really irks me that they can’t get the shape of the IX right

Well University Blue’s are awesome and they have a completely different look than the Powder Blue’s. I love both and I’ll be rocking both.

I have this ad framed. But not sure if the blue edges are on his pair in this photo or not. First time I saw these were in Slam magazine.

I remember this being the first look we got at then and me and all my friends trying to figure out what color the 23 on the back would be. Joke was on us.

I was one of them. But truthfully I liked the fact that the heel was left blank because it separates itself from the other two colors. It was like the shoe was saying it didnt need the 23 for you to know what it was. I guess that is what I got from it.I remember this being the first look we got at then and me and all my friends trying to figure out what color the 23 on the back would be. Joke was on us.
On the other side of thinking , the shoe was going to be worn by several members of the UNC team, the jersey number was kept off knowing that.

The black background with white shoes will always make the feet look bigger. lol.

I got used to it but after we psyched ourselves up for it, it was a bit of a letdown haha. I always just assumed because it was supposed to be UNC's team shoe, they didn't want any single number tied to a pair.

Thats what made it cool to me though. It was the first "team" shoe with out it being called such.

That was all of the first college Jordan gear. Those shorts were hot that year too. Things like that which subtly changed everything

These look perfectly done. It’s rare you get a spot on retro with Jordan. This being the best cw of the 9 it’s the only 9 I need or want.
