Jordan Brand is bringing back a fan-favorite sneaker from the early 2000s. The Air Jordan 9 “Flint Grey”, also known by collectors as the “French Blue”, will return for the first time since its original release in 2002. This upcoming drop is sure to excite sneakerheads who appreciate classic colorways and heritage designs.

The sneaker features a clean White leather upper paired with smooth Flint Grey overlays on the mudguard and midsole. Shiny finishes on the overlays enhance the shoe’s premium look. French Blue accents highlight the eyelets, tongue branding, heel details, and the iconic Jumpman logo. Completing the design are crisp White tongues, grey lining, and a white rubber outsole featuring global-inspired graphics.

Fans of retro Jordans and collectors alike can look forward to this release. The return of this colorway speaks to Jordan Brand’s commitment to reviving beloved classics with modern updates.
