The Air Jordan 9 Baseball Pack was created as a way to show the love Michael Jordan has for baseball. Both colorways (Brown and Black) are done in a woven leather uppers to mimic the look of a baseball glove. The numbers 45 (Black) and 35 (Brown) on the heels represent the numbers MJ wore during his short-lived baseball career while playing for the Birmingham Barons and Scottsdale Scorpions.
The release is inspired by the 1990s tradition of opening up baseball trading cards. Each pair of shoes is individually packaged in a black Jumpman bag, and you won’t know what colorway you purchased until you do. The specific color will not be labeled on the box, and will instead be labeled as “MULTI/MULTI-MULTI”.
