Up until the pair seen during the Countdown run, we haven’t seen anything for the Air Jordan IX. You can count the Silver Anniversary or White/Red Collection, but neither are up for grabs, so they don’t really count. It’s one of those underrated Jays, but definitely has some loyal followers with strong colorways like the Cool Greys, Olives and Powder Blues. It’s quite rare that a sample pops up that the internet doesn’t reveal within nine months of its anticipated release. But this pair certainly went under the radar. Expected to to drop in mid 2010, this pair rocks a slick black upper, white sole and bright citrus accents on the Jumpman logos, #23 and trim around the tongue. The mudguard features the grainy 3M material found on a few other AJ 9’s. Via Osneaker
