Air Jordan 9 “Chile Red” Confirmed for May 7 Release

With our list of Jordan Releases for 2021 now stacking up deep into the calendar year, we’re beginning to see some recurring silhouettes. The Air Jordan 1, of course, is in no shortage of colorways for the new year, and there’s been a good sprinkling of Air Jordan 6 options for its anniversary year. But the big surprise packet from the lineup has been a handful of Air Jordan 9s; a silhouette that’s often only subject to a solitary drop each year. Next year now has three (and counting!) with the inclusion of the Air Jordan 9 “Chile Red” for Fall.

Arriving in a similar vein to the Air Jordan 9 “Motorboat Jones” from 2012’s Kilroy Pack, the “Chile Red” Air Jordan 9 arrives in a striking black and red arrangement, bringing with it a few key changes. Uppers of rich red nylon remove the contrast black stitching and pair it with patent leather overlays, red-inked midsoles, and jet black outsoles. ,

With a Fall 2021 release on the cards, we won’t expect to see first looks for a minute, so until then you can grab a detailed look at the 2012 Air Jordan 9″ Motorboat Jones” below, and be sure to give us a follow on Twitter for further updates on the release.
