According to newly leaked information from  Sneaker Files  and  @zSneakerheadz  on Instagram, the iconic "Bred" Jordan 1 is returning to stores next year.

Here's How to Buy This Year's 'Olive' Air Jordan 9 The original colorway makes its return next week.

  The  Air Jordan 9  is uniquely positioned in the line's legacy. Most of its competitive history is tied to  Michael Jordan's  much-maligned baseball career. He didn't wear the model in an NBA game until his tenure with the Washington Wizards nearly a decade after its launch. Despite lacking special on-court moments that help drive the popularity of its predecessors and successors, the Jordan 9's fanfare has increased over the years, especially as it pertains to the original colorways. Next holiday season, one of those beloved OGs will be making a retail return. zSneakerheadz  and  Sneaker Files  report that the "Olive" Air Jordan 9 is set to be retroed in true form between October and December. Aside from a  boot conversion  in 2017, the colorway was last re-released in 2012. The "Olive" Jordan 9 wasn't always a home run with sneaker enthusiasts—it wasn't particularly well-received in '93 and famously sat in the clearance section when r
