The Air Jordan 9 OG “Space Jam” returns in Autumn 2026, marking the 30th Anniversary of both the silhouette and Michael Jordan’s starring role in Space Jam a defining cultural moment for both basketball and cinema.
Originally debuting in 1993, the AJ9 was the first model released after Jordan’s first retirement from the NBA, embodying his global influence off the court. The 2026 Anniversary Edition revives that legacy in faithful form, staying true to the “White/Black/True Red” colour scheme that fans have adored for decades.
Crafted with a crisp white leather base and jet-black nubuck overlays wrapping around the mudguard and collar, the shoe’s structure remains timeless. The hits of True Red across the Jumpman logos, heel tabs, and tongue branding punctuate the look with heritage flair.
Classic elements such as the “23” heel embroidery and multilingual outsole symbolising Jordan’s universal appeal remain intact, making this retro not just a sneaker, but a statement of cultural nostalgia.
Underfoot, modern cushioning subtly updates the feel without compromising authenticity. Nike has fine-tuned the shape and proportions, aligning it closer to the original 1993 build.
