Jordan XX9 – Hare

Time to debut a new feature on Off Court Issues, there is no denying in today’s landscape that fashion and the NBA are star crossed lovers, walking hand in hand, joined at the hip. So, just like when Karl Malone played that one season for the Lakers, why not hop on board. We’ll be looking at a new colorway for the Jordan XX9 and since I don’t have these sneakers, we’ll be evaluating them on style alone. Now if a pair of 11.5’s happened to show up on my doorstep, I would be more than happy to give them a proper run through and thorough investigation.

The Jordan XX9 rolled out in September, 2014 and it was sick, just look at this thing.

Many of us adults harken back to our youthful days when there was no more coveted a pair of kicks than the elusive Air Jordan. We all have our favorites and there are some inarguable classics  (I’m looking at you VI and XI). There is little doubt that the Jordan XX9 will fall right into the latter category of well designed and executed footwear artistry. The cropped, oversized logo and number flashes in luminescent red/orange glory, vibrantly juxtaposed against brooding black on black fabric.

When this shoe dropped, so did jaws. On may 16th prepare to bolster your mouthpiece once again when this little bad boy ships to high end sneaker peddlers everywhere.

These puppies have Westbrook, who is Team Jordan, written all over them. I fully expect to see him wearing an entire three piece suite with this color pattern continued throughout.
