This past week Jordan Brand sponsored the Quai 54 2009 Tournament in Paris, which featured 16 of the world’s best streetball teams. In addition to the streetball tournament a dunk contest was also held where participants wowed the crowd with some of their amazing dunks. Last but not least Usher and Ludacris came out to perform a number of songs. Players in the tournament wore the new Air Jordan Elements sneaker. Gentry Humprhey of Jordan Brand was seen rocking a pair of un-released Air Jordan IX’s. via THE B.O.P.

I dunno yall…I’m a hater and I really tried to be positive about this, but your photog went to a street ball contest and only came back with 2 maybe 3 good pictures of kicks? That action shot looks like a total miss as well unless dude has some magical powers that’ll bring that ball back to his hand.

i’m glad those 9′s didn’t get released look like some fuckin oreo kicks
July 2nd, 2009 at 1:09 pm
thats because those 9′s are fake as hell lol
July 2nd, 2009 at 1:17 pm
I was bout to say.I thot he had some fakes on.
July 2nd, 2009 at 1:39 pm
Those aren’t fakes, those are customs. That dude rockin em is Gentry Humphrey (I think) the head of Jordan Brand. No doubt he got those made up especially for him
July 2nd, 2009 at 1:39 pm
dude.. that’s gentry humphrey.. he gets all the hella exclusive jordan kicks.. that dude with a fake pair.. never that.. he can just design his own pair of jordans anytime he wants.. google him!
July 2nd, 2009 at 1:47 pm
Those aren’t fakes. That’s Gentry Humprhey. He’s the one who decide what jordans comes out. But those 9′s are ugly ass hell.

^^^Some times I really hate the internet….TO SNEAKERHEAD AND SHENOHL…PLEASE DO US ALL A FAVOR…GOOGLE GENTRY Humprhey….Honestly whoever mods this site should really have those two comments removed…..Next thing you know you idiots are gonna be talking about MJ (which Gentry mostly has MORE access then MJ) wears fakes too????? F’in kids…dont even realize who they are talking about….Tinker looks like the whitest white man in American and if you seen him in some off the wall joints you would mostly say the same thing right…
July 2nd, 2009 at 5:02 pm
i feel u C.Brown
but u must admit Gentry does
make some variant looking colorways
nothin like my dude Tinker
July 2nd, 2009 at 5:56 pm
Hey beast! Dont disrespect the person that made it posible for most of the retros to drop. Those 9s are 1 off’s. Gentry has a collection that would put most of you cats to shame. If you were a true head you would know who he is rather than flame him. Google his namee. Ill wait to see your reasponce.

I love those Jordan IX on the feet of Gentry Humprhey. That is the sickest colorway I’ve ever seen in those shoes.
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:29 pm
if the IX didnt have stitching they would be nice but gentry do be on some funky bs
July 2nd, 2009 at 9:39 pm
Yea watch all mouth… That man is Jordan…. MJ is just the face and trademark. Gentrey humprhey is behind making sure everything go smoothly. Y’all kids just hypebeast. Y’all c sum celebrity rocking sumthinyall like I’m go cop it. Get your history up stories behind material and sneakers

July 3rd, 2009 at 11:38 am
