Continuing its hot streak of solid colorways the Air Jordan XX9 ‘Pearl’ is clean, some say too plain but considering the theme it’s perfect. Sort of like Westbrooks’ unofficial signature shoe until his own gets here this summer, we will see him lace up this pair for All Star Weekend.
Check out the official release details below and let us know down in the comments if they are a DEF Cop or DEF Not.
AIR JORDAN XX9
The Air Jordan XX9, worn by high-flying Russell Westbrook, features a re-engineered FlightPlate technology that includes an additional tendril to improve heel-to-toe transitions. A performance woven upper is constructed to be incredibly light for superior flight.
The Jordan Pearl Pack will be available at select retail stores andJordan.com on Feb. 7.
