Who Doesn't Like Jordan's


Besides which Jordan is the best , Let's understand why Jordan wasn't able to wear his own sneaker during his NBA career and introducing them to society and getting them known.

Michael Jordan had released his sneaker the Jordan1 in 1985 and had to pay the NBA thousands of dollars to wear is own sneaker can you believe it. The Air Jordan I was the first shoe to be worn in the NBA with multiple colors. Peter Moore was the man behind the Air Jordan 1 (and also helped design the Air Jordan2) .MJ first reaction,“I’m not wearing that shoe. I’ll look like a clown”. With time, the shoe slowly grew on him. The original Air Jordan 1 retailed at $65.00.Soon after the release of the Air Jordan I, David Stern (Commissioner of the NBA), banned the most popular shoe of the decade to be worn by MJ. Every time Michael stepped on the court with a pair he would have to pay a couple thousand dollars.Nike loved this idea so much that they encouraged MJ to wear the shoes, and Nike would pay the fees. In result, Nike gave the the Air Jordan 1 “The shoe banned by the NBA” label. There was 23 different color variations released, and this is not including the three colorways of the Air Jordan I KO. Each AJ I shoe came with two sets of laces which matched the color combo.I think this wasn't call for , Jordan was just trying to model his sneaker to the youths and other Jordan fans .I think Jordan did the right thing paying for the fines for wearing his own sneaker during games because of Jordan wearing his sneaker , it is the most popular sneaker in today's society.
