But that's not all - another fan-favorite is set to make a comeback in 2025 as well. The Air Jordan 12 "Flu Game," which famously debuted during the 1997 NBA Finals when Michael Jordan battled through a severe case of the flu to lead the Chicago Bulls to victory, is sure to be one of the most sought-after releases of the year.

And now, it's been reported that the Air Jordan 9 "Cool Grey" (HV4794-011) will also see a release in Spring 2025. While not an original colorway, anything "Cool Grey" has held comparable esteem among sneakerheads, and this particular iteration of the Air Jordan 9 is especially significant.

First debuting on the Air Jordan 11 in 2001, the "Cool Grey" colorway quickly became a fan favorite. Jordan Brand later interpreted that neutral color scheme onto the Air Jordan 9, making the Cool Grey Jordan 9 the only instance in which Michael Jordan himself wore the ninth model in an NBA game. He did so during a pre-season game as a member of the Washington Wizards, adding to the shoe's lore and mystique.

The Cool Grey 9s later released again in 2012, but it's been over a dozen years since this classic colorway has seen the light of day. Now, with the upcoming release in 2025, fans of the shoe can finally get their hands on a pair and add them to their collection. All in all, it's shaping up to be an exciting year for Jordan Brand in 2025, with a number of highly anticipated releases on the horizon. Sneakerheads around the world are sure to be counting down the days until they can get their hands on these iconic shoes.
