Went with my kids to buy their back-to-school shoes this last weekend...and be still my heart, my middle son took one look at these...at age 9...and looked at me and asked "Dad, can we get those this year" I said "buddy if that's what you want, that's what we'll get"! I think I was giddier than he was. Proud Dad moment.
These are my all time favorite AJ9s. And the nostalgia factor on these is crazy for me. Trying to keep it brief with a trip down memory lane but after my first ever pair of Js , AJ8 Aquas in '93 , and then seeing so many older kids in my neighborhood with these 9s not so long after , i really wanted the PB9s as well. But parents weren't having it / so didn't happen , only retro i ever had of PB9s were the 2010 and those were such a bad retro (as were many other Js in that era) materials and if memory serves shape was off on the 2010 Powder Blue 9s either. So a clean back to OG specs PB9 retro like these is a must cop for me. I am tempted to see if they go on sale like i was able to do with the Burgundy 5s , Chambray 7s and other Js of late. But i also suspect these might sell out. One way of the other def adding these to the collection. Only downside is this colorway is very difficult to keep clean but luckily so many good cleaning products / methods now.
It’s really dope they brought these back. Gotta love all the details. But the powder blue shoe I’m wanting to return is the 10. Bring those back with that recent Orlando and Seattle materials and build and I’ll be so happy! Also, old fashions are sooooooo underrated. Just that simple donut with a cup of coffee puts me in the best mood lol
9s are in the top of favorite silhouette. Carolina colorway is something I can't pass up! Must cop! My son got the 2010 for his prom. Thank you for the review. 3rd floor old fashion. Jelly donut....5th floor easy.
I was arguing with a dude the other day about the 23 in the back. He was telling me it was on the og. I had to tell him I was sitting there looking at my Og pair and it does not 😂
A couple reason from what I heard over the years of why the 23 not featured on the heel. The original 9 was designed with the 23 on the back because it was prior to his retirement. The brand didn’t know he would retired when the shoes were sent to be made. Shoes are prepped and such 18 months out from release. Once rumblings were heard he was going to retire the shoe was to be worn by many other players and college teams. The PE versions for some players had their numbers while college teams didn’t have anything. It was a clean slate look they wanted to go for as the shoe was not being worn by him anymore
Here I am doin' all the things for the algorithm, in order to say thanks again Jodi and Chris for all that you do. The silhouette of the 9's has aged well in my opinion, so it's good to see this colorway back with the details done well and nice materials. I think I'll try to catch them on sale. And Todd can be as many stories up as he wants to be--I'm faking throwing the donut and keeping that ma hunchy for myself.
You guys are awesome as usual I truly appreciate you taking out the time to give us such a great show. I love your integrity and your consistency. Best part of the day.🎬
For whatever the 2010 retro was the only colorway to have the Jumpman facing the correct direction… mine are still clean & wearable but these are a must whenever they go on sale of course lol
I remember the olives 🫒 sitting on the shelves forever back in the day. Sorta wanted a pair. Not sure why i never got a pair. Might see how the new ones this holiday season do.
I have the 2010 still. I would love to own these to wear but I don't buy retros anymore other than team retros with a coupon or sale. Also the 2010 jumpman was actually facing the right way too. I remember being surprised they did something right. The charcoal that released around that time was flipped but I still bought them. Man the 9 has some of the best colorways on any jordan imo.
Sooooooo happy they FINALLY flipped the jumpman to face the proposer direction!!! This is one of my fav colorways of the shoe. As for the question of the day, I’d have to say zero stories/ floors…because that’s a Todd problem! The donuts are mine! 😂🤣💁🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️ If he really wanted one…he’d better come down, I’m not wasting food for anyone’s convenience!
You make shoes look so cool, the history and material reviews are my favorite parts. This is the best sneaker channel on UA-cam. I wanted these shoes to be Carolina blues so badly though and since they aren’t I had to pass…. Might regret this later though!
Once again, another great overall review!! Thank you and very much appreciated as always!! DEFINITELY trying to pick up a pair. Hopefully two! And I did not even realize they released a retro in 2010. I was in my "semi retirement" phase of shoe collecting during that time. Still have my original 1993-1994 pairs of Air Jordan IX 9.
Jordan 9s space jams were my first sneakers that got me in the game. Can’t forget that he wore these in the movie too. This is def cop for me cause i have a separate bond with these
Great review. I think I got 5 stories in me on the donut toss. Give me a nice heavy cream filled, I'll hold it so the cream doesn't come out when I chuck it... and away it goes.
I really enjoyed the inner sock coming from huarache in AJ VII, VIII and IX when I hopped in those at the time. Incredibly comfortable and ahead of their time
The Jordan 9 is sooooo underrated. Just got my pair! Size 12! Probably the most comfortable and iconic looking Jordan in my opinion. Excellent video! 🤟🏻❤️
Maannn, i'm a sucker for anything blue and these look beautiful! Reminds me of a griffey i had back in the days i think it was the ken griffey shox...i need these 🔥
I can’t wait for the 17 lows to release, asg lightning and unc.. 17 og colorways are some of my top favorite Jordan’s.. and then I’m getting ALL the “holiday” releases..
I hear you man. I am still waiting on the AJ5 Olive to drop in price. I will likely pick these up right away, but I will be taking a knee afterwards for a bit, as this fall is going to be a problem.
I have my 2010 pair with the '23' on the back heel and my pair is still good and my pair is still new still no defaults at all after all these years,I won't be copping the 2024 version, in good with my pair
9’s will forever be underrated and I’ll always love them
🔥🔥🔥😎I am youtuber🔥🔥🔥 main aapk🔥🔥o help kar🔥🔥🔥🔥unga
What do u think for this pair , true to size ? Do these run a little bigger than older pairs ?
Best channel for reviews hands down.

My pair of OG 9s was actually wearable until recently. They had a good 25 year run but sadly now crumbling year 30 🥺
Chris’ review and Ms Wing’s commentaries are perfect combo
This channel gives me almost the same feels as opening s shoe box. I am still waiting for my Saturday morning Mr and Mrs....

23 isn’t on the back
Same here. My favorite 9s ever
@@drchristian35Yea the original and rereleases shouldn't have a 23 on the back heel 💯 only one release have them

I have been waiting for you to finally get your Jordan 9 correction! Long time coming!
Waiting for these next week, 9s are seriously underrated! Hope to see the AM1 86 Royal Blue shoe next, the Air Max DN, and the Air 180 soon!
Thanks!
Man 2010 was so bad, I remember when they released….was a sophomore in HS, time flies.

Just wore them with my Easter outfit !!!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Mpls native here. Dinky town needs love too! Or just plain old MPLS location. We need our good sneaker stores to stay around as long as possible.
The only review I’ve been waiting on for these 💯
10 floors if I’m on the 9th floor 😂😂😂
Great review! Love the questions of the day! Thank you both!

The only pair I want in March since I been scaling back on Jordan’s and I love it
You guys are awesome as usual I truly appreciate you taking out the time to give us such a great show. I love your integrity and your consistency. Best part of the day.🎬
Thanks so much!
Definitely a pinky toe killer but hopefully these sit. Need slightly under retail
Old fashioned donuts are the king of all donuts. Great review and oh the shoes are also amazing.
This is the best colorway for the retro 9 I'm definitely getting these 💯
For whatever the 2010 retro was the only colorway to have the Jumpman facing the correct direction… mine are still clean & wearable but these are a must whenever they go on sale of course lol
Been waiting for these
2002 Air Jordan IX's were so comfortable. No break in time. The cushion was amazing too.
I've been waiting for you to talk about these just for the Jumpman on the heel.
This is why you have the best content on UA-cam I love it cause you were there likewise I’m going a half size up myself
These are beautiful. Just like yalls work. Thanks for all you do.
Always enjoy these 👟 reviews
they finally did the 9 right, so good
I think I might want to grab this pair. Thanks for the vid!
Can’t wait for theses. Great video as always

Salute to Weartester. OG and probably the originators of sneaker reviews. Much love to you nightwing and a big fan here since day 1.
Most honest, in depth and comical sneaker reviews hands down 👏 😂. Appreciate you guys and these 9s look 🔥 so I'm grabbing a pair.
Once again, another great overall review!! Thank you and very much appreciated as always!! DEFINITELY trying to pick up a pair. Hopefully two! And I did not even realize they released a retro in 2010. I was in my "semi retirement" phase of shoe collecting during that time. Still have my original 1993-1994 pairs of Air Jordan IX 9.
This are the best looking 9s. Hope they don’t sell out in minutes on release.
Another great video, both educational and fun.
I'm just not a big 9s guy for myself, but these are definitely a pretty pair. I hope you 9 fans are able to get these on step discount!
4 floors
Just got the glow 3’s. Chris was right about his assessment on the shoe. They didn’t fly crazy.
Thanks for the review. I was on the fence about these. Dope hoodie bro!!!
One of the very few 9’s that gonna be in the collection 😊
I just picked up my first Jordan 9 in cool grey colorway. Found them in 9/10 condition at a thrift store for only $120!
Awesome review like always .. those look really good
I’m glad they finally fixed the jumpman. That was one of my pet peeves with the 11s as well
I love Jordan 9s 🔥 colorway
Just got a pair of these, can’t wait till they arrive
Jordan 9s space jams were my first sneakers that got me in the game. Can’t forget that he wore these in the movie too. This is def cop for me cause i have a separate bond with these
My last name Jordan and I still always learn so much from this channel lol
Been waiting for you to do these
The stitching of the sz tag is just clean asf for me idk why 😂🔥
Looking forward to these definitely copping these if possible in nz

Seeing the weapons in the background and knowing how they got there👌
A must cop. I had the last release and ended up selling them and been waiting ever since. The wait is almost over
Yo weartesters I love your channel and man I love sneaker can you review the new upcoming tmnt adidas collab I’m curious about these
9s are nostalgic had the olives as a kid but these are growing on me
I'm wearing the Black an Grey 9's now. Those are a must cop. One floor up on the donut!!!!
Love the channel
I had those back in 1994 and I will try to score a pair when they release.
Chris, kudos! You did it again. Another excellent sneaker review. 👍🏽👍🏽
My favorite 9's also
I got so excited as soon as I seen the thumbnail
Beautiful shoes!
Definitely going to get myself a pair
Love these!
Great review
Great video I’m hoping they do the olives right
love these but i’m on a budget so may not be able to buy😢 hoping they go under retail
Preaching to the choir
Smart man
I hear you man. I am still waiting on the AJ5 Olive to drop in price. I will likely pick these up right away, but I will be taking a knee afterwards for a bit, as this fall is going to be a problem.
@@LegendaryEsq.these and the 4’s in may
I paid 194
This might be my shoe of the year. Oooooweeeee that’s clean.
Keep doing what you doing 👏 💯
Passed on a lot of shoes for this release!
The Tar Heels should wear these in the tournament
So excited for these heaters 🔥
The 2 pair a year use to happen often, the next number use to start to release the end of the year if I remember correctly
holy sh*t 847k subscribers! c'mon lets see a million
Just waiting for this review specifically from this channel before I decide whether to grab a pair once they release it or not. Gonna grab a pair.
A must cop dope video
I have my 2010 pair with the '23' on the back heel and my pair is still good and my pair is still new still no defaults at all after all these years,I won't be copping the 2024 version, in good with my pair
That blue is hittin. Not really a 9s guy but definitely a clean look.
Problem is these are a 1-time fresh look. Nearly-all white guarantees this gets ugly real quick.
@@xlixity i can definitely see it mayne
It’s only official until it’s on WearTesters
@@xlixity mann thats exactly what I was thinking .
@@xlixitysole protectors 🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️🤷🏾♀️
Thank you!
This shoes getting into my list🎉
Awesome 😊 when do they release
COP most definitely! Does stockX do shipping overseas??
Those Magic and Larry Converse look pretty amazing on that shelf.
Olive 9s are still my favourites can't wait for them to release again
Boy do I have news for you lol.
@@BenBen-xm2tk cool grey’s are coming in 2025 the cool grey 11s and 9s are probably one of the best looking color ways that aren’t ogs
