Air Jordan IX (9) – Mike Bibby Hawks PE

Mike Bibby’s PE collection is one of the most impressive we’ve ever seen but here’s a look at one in particular that would be sizzling even without the ‘PE’ designation. This PE dates to 2008 and features the ‘OG’ white, black, red colorway, but the black sections do not feature the slightly-glittered black nubuck, but a shiny black patent leather allowing for a true ‘tuxedo’ look. Patent leather has never been done on a mid-cut Air Jordan IX until the Air Jordan IX ‘For The Love of The Game’,and had these released as a general release, there’s no doubt that they’d fly off the shelves. Only 42 pairs of this rarity have ever been produced, but if you’ve got the dough to spend, check out this auction from depeche23mode on eBay. Via Sneaker News
