News on this release was first published on June 22, 2022.

Update December 1, 2022: The Air Jordan 9 ‘Fire Red’ will land via SNKRS on December 13. Peep the official imagery down below!

Update October 18, 2022: Fresh images of the Air Jordan 9 ‘Fire Red’ have arrived! The release date has allegedly been moved to November 23, but we’ll confirm that closer to the date.

The Air Jordan 9 was the only ‘early’ (AKA Air Jordan 1- Air Jordan 14) model that Michael Jordan never wore on an NBA court, as when it released in 1993 he was off playing baseball. Nevertheless, the Tinker Hatfield-designed sneaker has become an important part of the Jordan Brand legacy, and a new ‘Fire Red’ colourway is set to drop later this year.

Revealed by @chriscolgan, the Air Jordan 9 ‘Fire Red’ offers a sporty colour scheme that relegates its eponymous hue to third in the colour-blocking scheme. The majority of the upper is composed of crisp white leather, while ‘Cool Grey’ appears on the patent leather mudguards, nubuck heel overlays, familiar toothed midsole, collar and tongue. These would probably be dubbed ‘Cool Grey’ if it wasn’t for the Air Jordan of the same name that debuted in 2002 and was released again in 2012!

Though the ‘Fire Red’ hue that gives this shoe its name is used somewhat scarcely, it makes its presence felt when it does appear. Spread across the branded hits, heel tabs and eyestays, it adds a punch of hot detailing to the otherwise subtly coloured design. Familiar multilingual outsoles round off the look.

Jordan Brand has yet to offer official release confirmation for the Air Jordan 9 ‘Fire Red’ at the time of writing, but early reports have it releasing as part of the Jumpman’s Fall 2022 Air Jordan retro collection. It’s set to touch down on November 5 and will retail for $200 when it does.
