NK-AJ9 Retro White/Black/Red 40~47.5 basketball

The NK-AJ9 Retro in White/Black/Red is a timeless icon that bridges the gap between basketball heritage and streetwear sophistication. Originally released in 1993, this silhouette was the first NK-AJ model to debut after Michael NK-AJ's initial retirement, yet it remains a fan favorite for its sleek design and cultural significance. The clean white leather upper is accented by black and red detailing, creating a bold contrast that pays homage to the Chicago Bulls' classic colorway.
