The Air Jordan 29 is a silhouette with an all-woven upper inspired by Italian tailoring. It is available in different designs and colorways.
Air Jordan 29 sneakers feature an upper constructed with a performance woven material known as Flyweave, a combination of Hyperfuse and Nike’s Flyknit. A higher thread count is used on sections that require more support, like the heel and forefoot, and areas that require extra stretch are stitched loosely. There isn’t much texture on the upper since the Flyweave material is made of thinner strands. The shoe’s lockdown technology comprises a midfoot plate cup and TPU heel counter combined with its performance woven upper, which is strengthened by the Flight Web technology. The Flight Web lacing system features tied-up webbed straps that pull the foot to the midsole section once the laces are tightened.
A re-engineered version of the Flight Plate technology is used on this sneaker, where the Zoom Air unit, which was protruding in the previous version, has been recessed back into the midsole. Depending on the colorway, different graphics are used on the Air Jordan XX9. While some like the XX9 Black White Gym Red display an elephant skin print on specific areas, others use a linear pattern. Some sneakers in the selection, like the XX9 Quai 54, display a bold Jumpman logo on the side panels. Other branding details include the Jumpman logo on the front section of the outsole and different Jordan brandings on the tongue and heel counter, depending on the colorway. The Air Jordan 29 features a rubber outsole with multi-directional patterns for traction and is also available in low-cut designs.
