The man behind all those ill Lego sneakers, Tom Yoo, is back at it with another incredible creation. Yoo, whose previous works include the "Red Octobers," the Air Jordan IV, and the Air Jordan XI, focuses his attention this on another classic Jordan silhouette, the Air Jordan IX.

Recreating both the "Olive" and "White/Black" colorways, Yoo continues to impress with another set of Lego Js that will make some of us wish we spent more time playing with our legos during our childhoods. Last week, Yoo announced that he would be making his work available to the public soon. As an added bonus, Yoo plans to donate 10 percent of profits to a non-profit organization of his choosing. While currently not available for sale, follow Yoo's Instagram account to be amongst the first to know when they become available.
