A handful of Air Jordan 18s have been released in 2018, marking the first-ever retro run of the last signature model Michael Jordan played in. Following up the OG "Sport Royal" colorway and "Toro Bravo"-esque red suede make up is the "Cool Grey" 18.

This rendition covers the model entirely in grey suede. Subtle hits of contrast come in the form of a white Jumpman logo and "23" on the shroud, metallic silver eyelets, and a black carbon fiber midsole.

According to @_perfecto_pair on Instagram, there will only be 9,000 pairs released. An exact release date has yet to be announced—although @pinoe77 is calling for a November launch—but if the rumored production numbers are accurate, then these might be a little tough to track down when they finally arrive at retailers. 

UPDATE (06/13): Instagram user @torusneaks provides a detailed look at the "Cool Grey" Air Jordan 18 sample.
