The Air Jordan 9 “Racer Blue” is a futuristic take on Michael Jordan’s ninth signature sneakers. The high top features a nubuck upper and speckled rope laces. An iridescent matte finish is applied to the mudguard that extends to the heel and up to the collar, which showcases an array of colors when hit with light. The heel logo and the Jumpman on the midsole are presented in royal blue. The look is finished off with a painted midsole and rubber outsole. These are athletic sneakers.
