Jordan 9 Retro Motorboat Jones

The Jordan 9 Retro Motorboat Jones is a performance shoe that takes its inspiration from the Johnny Kilroy ad campaign launched by Nike. This iteration of the Jordan 9 Retro features a Challenge Red upper. On each side, you’ll find black stitching forming boxes of decreasing size as they move from the ankle towards the toe. Each box is textured with small divots. A red leather mudguard appears around the entire shoe, and red leather forms the heel and the ankle lining. The number 23 appears on the heel in black and a Jumpman logo appears looking like a medal at the bottom of the heel pull tab. The tongue features Motorboat Jones branding, and the shoe sits atop a red midsole. A black outsole featuring a white Jumpman on the lateral side completes the design. Our favorite feature of this shoe is the all red construction, which brings a bold look to the design. The Jordan 9 Retro Motorboat Jones was released on December 1, 2012, and retailed for $160.
