Thank you JB. The Powder's were my very first pair of Jordan's. I need two pair for me and one for my newborn

....

 

[swooshdude]

I only notice one thing missing from these and it's very VERY minor. If memory serves me correctly, wasn't the edge of the mudgard painted in that same blue color? I'm talking about the cut edge of the leather, so it looked like it had a single blue pinstripe that framed the shoe in a way. I could be wrong, but I don't think so.

 

[backyardrsx]

Best colorway for the ix's

 

[malcala622]

^ yup ur right...the differences are the lining, the 23 on the heel and the powder blue is a bit darker on these...nonetheless its beautiful shoe...favorite signature shoe of all so will try and get 3 pairs on RD

 

[riddla713]

this is why i stick with jb. some of the stuff jb drops is hideous but these powder blue ix's are

.

you just got to sift your way through the #*@!%%*% and double up on the 3-4 on point retros jb drops per year. i hope jb will continue the good work and drop some chi x's, cmt 3's, cmt 4's, and of course cool grey and concord xi's.

 

[blacklion23]

^^^Exactly. I mentioned this in my post earlier. Don't get me wrong, the shoe looks great and is a fa sho cop, but I'm a lil disappointed they didn't keep that. Though it's small, it stood out to me. But these are nice and will be copped!

 

[fr4nch1s3]

im copping...nice job JB...lets see what kind of release this will be though *sighs*

 

[malcala622]

I'm happy if they release these this way. Theyre real close to the originals. Im getting on RD for sure.

im mad they didnt include this. it actually made the shoe that much cooler. but ehh. ill cop, these are the first pair of Jays ive ever owned

 

[sosmoove]

I've been waiting on these forever. One pair for me.

 

[cityfly]

Wowwwwwwwww Thats What Im Talkin About JB

 

[mercenary x]

One word, ejaculation... Gotttt Damn!!!

 

[frenchblue23]

2 thumps up JB.

ALSO, If they re-release the Retro card with MJ wearing these  

 

[malcala622]

^I still have that card when my older bro got the cool grey 9s...gona stick it in the box if they dont come with retro card.

 

[nazarethsavage]

Awwww man! I need at least two pair.

I would pick one up on marqueesole if they had my size

 

[Magic33]

I had to look at these to make sure they weren't patent leather or something

Yeah same here. I really wish this was included...but after years of waiting we are finally seeing retros of OG IX's that have never been retroed, so I'm satisfied

His CG's came with a Retro card?  Mine never did. 

 

[theassassin23]

Oh man these are beautiful, I cant wait to get my hands on these

I bet there wont be a retro card since they arent the same color, which technically they arent the OG Retro's due to the different blues. Same as the Varsity 6 no infrared no retro card.

yeah i remember going with him to buy them at Mom and Pop store near our house and thats when the powder 9s became my all time favorite. Dont own a pair but soon =)

  

 

[bruggs58]

Look way better than I thought they would

 

[allthingsjordan]

wow! It has become such a rare thing where JB actually releases something worth saying that over...

Can't wait for these....and white 6's, 3's and 4's...hopefully the brand will win me back this year!

 

[g kicks1012]

these look crack!!! im def copping

been waiting for these pics

 

[Animal Thug]

Those aint even powder blue!?

  

Powder blue 9's are overrated anyway.
