Air Jordan 9 Retro BG 'Barons'

The Air Jordan 9 was the first shoe to drop following Michael Jordan’s first retirement from the NBA. This retro edition of the AJ9 honors the Birmingham Barons, the Chicago White Sox’s minor league affiliate that Jordan later joined in his short-lived baseball career. The youth-size model sports a pinstripe pattern on the inner-lining and ‘45’ embroidered on the heel—the number he wore during his days on the diamond.
