The latest Jordan release marks the 19th anniversary of Michael Jordan’s first ‘un-retirement’ from the basketball. The ‘Johnny Kilroy’ Jordan IX pays homage to a character played by Michael in Nike’s original Air Jordan IX advertising campaign, a basketball player by the name of ‘Johnny Kilroy’

This OG Retro edition comes in a Black/Metallic Platinum-Gym Red colourway with ‘Johnny Kilroy’ branding on the tongue, the phrase “Kilroy Kicks Butt” message stitched on the inner, and the signature number 23 replaced with a number 4 on the heel badges.

The Nike Air Jordan IX Retro – ‘Johnny Kilroy’ will launch at 00:01 (BST) Saturday, 6th October 2012 with the shoes retailing at £129 | $169

00:01(BST) Saturday is normally 5:30-6pm Friday our time (chicago time)

Never had a pair of NB, and I love them now lol.

Plus, $80 for a pair of the backpack series? Can't beat that.

zappos has a lot of pretty good deals on nb, they have that backpack series for 56 shipped there...

6pm.com is a good spot too.

both are good sources in general (not just for nb), and zappos has free next day shipping. i ordered something at 7:00 one night, and got it the next day. good stuff

joesnewbalanceoutlet.com is good too but sometimes the sizes are really limited

Yeah. You'd probably have to grab them online.
