Your winter rotation has been waiting for this moment.

With the colder months now within arm’s reach, it’s time to start thinking about making your sneaker rotation ready for the elements. Luckily enough, Nike has your back, as they’re set to bring back two of the most iconic Air Jordan 9 Retro Boot colorways ever made. Namely the "Beef & Broccoli" and the "Black Gum," if you want to add these to your collection, you have another chance.

Crafted from an array of premium materials including nubuck and suede, these AJ 9 Boots have been specifically designed for the harsher weather conditions. The usual lacing system has been replaced with a rugged D-ring setup which is what you’d normally find on a classic pair of workboots, while the heel pull tab has been elevated with hard-wearing materials. The “Beef & Broccoli” opts for a legion green and military brown combination, while the "Black Gum" arrives in a more understated affair, pairing black with a dash of gum light brown. Both pairs sit on top of extremely comfortable Air cushioned midsoles and come complete with exaggerated tooling underfoot.

The Air Jordan 9 Retro Boot in Black Gum as well as Beef & Broccoli are set to release in Holiday 2022. They will drop at Nike as well as at select Jordan Brand retailers worldwide, in-store and online. Coming in men's sizing, retail is set at $225.
