The Calvin Bailey Colorway on the 2012 Jordan 9 Retro

The original Air Jordan 9 was released in November 1993, roughly one month after MJ announced his retirement from basketball. The retail price in the US was $125. The first Air Jordan 9 retro release took place in 2002 and included the first low-top version of the AJ 9. Additional retro releases followed every two years beginning in 2008, then annually starting in 2015 though the present day. In 2016, Nike released the Air Jordan 9 OG, which included the Space Jam model that celebrated the movie's 20th anniversary. Nike continues to announce more retro releases for the future.

History of Air Jordan 9

In 1993, the Air Jordan 9 hit the court for the first time, though Michael Jordan never scored a single point with the Chicago Bulls wearing the shoe. When Jordan surprised the world with news of his retirement on October 6, 1993, the AJ 9 was already in production. Nike had no choice but to move forward with the release even though the most famous feet in basketball had seemingly left the court forever.

Jordan 9 Retro Calvin Bailey 2012

A new vibrant design came to the Air Jordan 9 lineup in 2012 when the Calvin Bailey colorway debuted. This mid-top design features a Deep Royal purple color on most of its construction, from the midsole and mudguard to the toe top, side panels, heel, tongue, and laces. University Gold accents are scattered elsewhere on the sneaker, including on the eyelets, the tongue's Jordan tag, and the heel tab to the inner sock and tongue liner, the number 23 on the heel, and the entire outer sole. White accents come into play on the heel's Jordan Globe emblem and on the bottom tread's Jordan Jumpman logo. This mystical purple and yellow Calvin Bailey colorway made its debut on November 10, 2012.
