What was supposed to be a celebratory gesture of sorts has become a debate-sparking controversy among those who have followed the brand unconditionally. The Jordan Brand BIN23 Collection features classic Air Jordan silhouettes constructed with high quality materials and placed in premium packaging, which apparently infers that Jordan Brand doesn’t believe $150+ just isn’t what it used to be. Nonetheless, Jordan loyalists will keep in tune with the Collection.
Last Friday, Sneaker News gave you a sneak peek at an Air Jordan IX in a white/gold colorway; the visible wax stamp on the upper led us to believe that it was indeed part of the BIN23 Collection, and these newer images confirms that notion. The material used for the gold upper was undeterminable before, but based on this second look, it appears to be a distressed material similar to that which was used on the Air Jordan 1 25th Anniversary. Continue reading for a better look at this Air Jordan IX BIN 23 and chime in with your thoughts. via SoleCollector.

March 29th, 2010 at 2:06 pm
don’t get me wrong the shoes r nice but I’m not gon pay an arm & a leg for a pair of shoes that is made out of the same high quality material that they used back in the day on shoes & only charged like around $125 for. I still buy J’s but as of lately this company just makes up reason 2 sale j’s at a higher price.
March 29th, 2010 at 2:10 pm
These 9s go hard. I’m doubling up on these when they release.
March 29th, 2010 at 2:13 pm
Retro R those arent black on black 2′s. Those are the chocolate croc skin 2′s that are coming out, the lighting is just making them look darker then they really are.
March 29th, 2010 at 2:17 pm
they nice but not 4 225 dats way too much 4 these maybe 170 to 185 but not 225 dat would make it a super pass for me
March 29th, 2010 at 2:21 pm
Looks like JB is going all out for 2010. Best year for JB in 25 years! HA HA! Only ones compaining about all these retros are the ones who cant get none.
March 29th, 2010 at 2:23 pm

March 29th, 2010 at 2:24 pm
Looks like Bin 23 is gonna be off the chain! Cant wait to see whats next! Zebra 11s! LOL
March 29th, 2010 at 2:24 pm
I’ll pass!!!
March 29th, 2010 at 2:29 pm
best year?? haha definitely not quality wise. look at he ko’s the toebox is terrible compared to the og’s. if ppl want to buy quality buy adidas puma or reebok.
March 29th, 2010 at 2:34 pm
These 9′s are to similar to the silver anniversary 9′s. They should have added more rich and premium material. The KO’s are the shit, and limited. The 2′s are mean!
March 29th, 2010 at 2:38 pm
@ 1.Retro R
those arent black on black fuckin idiot. they’re brown.
the 9s look way better than the 2s. if the rest of the models use gold instead of that ugly brown, Bin 23 will be dope
March 29th, 2010 at 2:53 pm
turtles you are either broke or one serious hater my man.. either way its already been a good year for JB and the releases coming later thsi year I can’t wait for personally..Monsta?
March 29th, 2010 at 2:53 pm
Wow. I’m so glad I’m not into J’s. I’m surprised you guys keep allowing yourselves to get scammed. To each his own, I guess. *lol*
March 29th, 2010 at 3:15 pm
this bin 23 shit is straight WACK son! both pairs are disgustingly ugly!!
March 29th, 2010 at 3:19 pm
Auto copped!!! Too many XIs coming out this year though. How the hell is someone supposed to keep up with all the releases? Not just the IXs.
Slow down JB! S#!t!
March 29th, 2010 at 3:37 pm
Franklausky the KO’s aren’t that limited! They are still up on the Nike store and all over ebay.
March 29th, 2010 at 4:07 pm
PASS.The material look exactly the same apart from the liner.some bullshit
March 29th, 2010 at 4:22 pm
How did these turn out so nice and the IIs look so jacked up?
March 29th, 2010 at 4:28 pm
Hypebeast = TR3 WATS… Its not about the money its about the shoe, some people will buy a pile of shit if it has a jordan logo on it……
March 29th, 2010 at 4:32 pm
Are the crocs. And IX getting released to stores or what?
March 29th, 2010 at 4:51 pm
Would be selling $399-499 or more for sure. Resellers will rape Ya’ll.
March 29th, 2010 at 4:52 pm
I’m going to respectively pass on these. I do like the cigar 2′s tho…
March 29th, 2010 at 6:00 pm
@ ilovejs
You figured he was a hypebeast just by him saying that it’s going to be off the chain?
Is he a hypebeast because he’s excited for the upcoming releases??
March 29th, 2010 at 7:22 pm
i like them and the 2′s i swear yall just broke ass bums and they supposed to sell for like 175 i dont know were yall gettin your numbers… turtles=hater why even comment on j’s if u dont wear them anyway fruit
March 29th, 2010 at 11:36 pm
Those are not black on black twos…they are brown.
March 30th, 2010 at 4:39 pm
nice i would cop but no Jordan is worth 225.00 starting out maybe if you miss them and have to buy em off someone else but some of these prices are crazy especially with the rate there putting them out dropping several shoes on the same day and then more on the next saturday. c’mon.. anyway nice but that better be real gold for that price!!
