Air Jordan Force IX (AJF 9) – Carolina Blue – White – Black

Whether they’re truly “The Best of Both Worlds” is entirely up to your opinion, but there’s little doubting the polarizing nature of the Air Jordan Force series.  Fusing together the classic Nike Air Force 1 with various models from the Air Jordan series, the AJF series is back at it again with the Air Jordan Force IX.

Released after MJ’s first retirement during the 1993-94 NBA season, the Air Jordan IX is perhaps one of the more forgettable releases in that epic series, but Jordan Brand seeks to remedy that with this University of North Carolina-inspired makeup.  There’s a nice balance between the white upper, black tongue and carolina blue midsole.  We’ll leave it up to you to argue the virtue of the remaining design elements, and you can find a ton of pictures after the jump.  No word on a solid release date as of yet, so check with Sneaker News for more info.  Via FatboyKickz
