Air Jordan 9 Retro 'Bred'
Black and Red. No Explanation Needed.
The Air Jordan 9 Retro 'Bred' is the definitive colorway for one of Jordan Brand's most storied silhouettes. Black and University Red have long been synonymous with Michael Jordan's legacy, and on the AJ9, the combination hits with the same intensity as MJ himself — commanding, powerful, and impossible to ignore.
A Colorway Built on Championship DNA
Bred is more than a colorway — it's a statement of intent. The Air Jordan 9 Bred carries the weight of MJ's first retirement era, making it one of the most emotionally resonant releases in the entire Jordan catalog. Whether you're a lifelong collector or a first-time buyer, this is a shoe that means something.
- Upper: Full-grain black leather with University Red accents for a bold, classic contrast
- Cushioning: Air-Sole unit in the heel for responsive, lightweight impact protection
- Outsole: Herringbone rubber outsole in red for signature style and reliable grip
- Colorway: Black / University Red / White
- Details: Multilingual "Air" text on the midsole, Jumpman branding, perforated toe box
How to Style It
Bred colorways write their own outfit rules. Go all-black with a red accent piece to keep it clean and cohesive, or let the shoe pop against grey or white fits for maximum contrast. This is one of those rare colorways that looks right no matter what you pair it with — because it was built to be iconic.
Black. Red. Done. Iconic.
