A Closer Look at the Air Jordan XX9 “River Walk”

After taking an initial look at the latest colorway from Air Jordan‘s modern generation, here we take a closer look at the vibrant AJ XX9 “River Walk.” This court-ready silhouette is executed with a bold magenta-to-blue gradient mesh upper, contrasted nicely with a stark Jumpman logo at the rear. This color scheme draws from the 1996 NBA All-Star Game in San Antonio, reiterating the colors of that year’s uniforms while also nodding to the tourist walk in the central Texan metropolis. The ‘96 games were of special importance in Michael Jordan’s player legacy, having seen His Airness pick up yet another MVP award for his on-court heroics. These features rest atop an athletic black midsole and a crisp ‘ice blue’ outsole, adding a timeless feel to this offering from Jordan Brand.
