Air Jordan XX9 Unveiling

Make way for number 29.

Michael Jordan's basketball days may be long behind him, but that hasn't kept his eponymous brand from continuing his signature shoe line. Sure, the retros get majority of the attention, but thanks to a their nifty Flight Plate technology, both the Jordan XX8 and the XX8 SE managed to put the Jumpman back in the forefront of on-court performance shoes.

Less than two weeks from now, we'll get a look at the all-new Air Jordan XX9. How they managed to keep last year's release under wraps is beyond me, and it looks like this year's drop will be the same. Will number 29 continue with the Flight Plate technology? Will it cost in the same range as last year's model? What will it look like? All these questions will be answered on April 17, 2014.

Get excited!
