Mike is returning to archive this winter to bring back a winterized favorite, with the reinstatement of the Air Jordan 9 Boot NRG “Black Gum” for Fall 2021 — and again in 2022!
Releasing back in early December 2017, the retooled design boasts a hefty sole replacement with a tread that’s built for treacherous weather and a bevy of boot-inspired finishes, including a suede and leather construction, rope laces, and steel eyelets. The colorway is a quintessential boot staple, too, anchoring the entire pair in a tonal black build atop a timeless light gum base — Perfection; it’s no wonder that they’re bringing it back for the second year running!
And that’s not all: the “Beef & Broccoli” colorway is also expected to return these Holidays.
If you’re planning on picking up a pair on the day, make sure you head to our dedicated Jordan Release Dates Calendar to set yourself a reminder for the drop.
