Will this December’s ‘Cool Grey’ release be as successful as the 2010 Cool Grey release? Granted, the IX isn’t nearly as popular as the XI is, but Cool Grey IX is one of the most popular Retro releases of all-time. Originally releasing in 2002, the Air Jordan IX ‘Cool Grey’ was one of the few Air Jordans that pulled off patent leather fairly well, but does it stand out enough to warrant another Air Jordan IX purchase considering the six Kilroy Pack releases and the other two Retros (not to mention the rumor of the next Doernbecher release being the Air Jordan IX)? Many are looking solely at the Cool Greys, so if you want them ahead of the December release date, get ’em now from el-store on eBay.
