Designed with a focus on older children, the Air Jordan 9 Retro GS ‘University Blue’ pays homage to Michael Jordan’s college, with a color palette that reflects his alma mater. Drawing inspiration from the Air Jordan 9 PE models sported by renowned athletes Penny Hardaway and Nick Anderson in the mid ‘90s, the sneaker features a clean white and black leather upper, paired with powder blue branding details. These include an intricately embroidered ‘23’ on the heel and a Jumpman logo on the side of the midsole, providing a subtle yet distinctive touch. Complemented by non-binding rope laces, the design captures the essence of the iconic Air Jordan series while adding its own unique flair.
