Built for big kids, the Air Jordan 9 Retro GS ‘University Blue’ showcases a familiar color scheme that nods to Michael Jordan’s alma mater. Additionally, the design is reminiscent of Air Jordan 9 PE colorways worn by the likes of Penny Hardaway and Nick Anderson in the mid ‘90s. A simple white and black palette is executed on the leather upper, secured with non-binding rope laces and accented with powder blue branding hits. They include an embroidered ‘23’ on the heel and a Jumpman icon on the lateral midsole.
