From rookie sensation to folk hero status, Micheal Jordan singlehandedly spearheaded the globalization of the NBA as we know it. Flawlessly labeled unguardable. Grace, speed, power, improvisational ability, and competitive nature, helped Jordan quickly eclipse NBA stardom to bonified cultural icon. The endorsement king became the new face of Nike and Gatorade while surpassing all career expectations notching ten scoring titles, countless MVPs, and six NBA championships with a pair of “three-peats.”
Debuting in 1985, the quintessential Jordan 1 quickly became as beloved as the man who’d wear it. Paying homage, our retro black leather and red swoosh base made the perfect canvas. While the right tongue details his rookie season Chicago jersey, the left bares his 95-96 season Bulls home gear. Narrated to a T, each rear tab stitches the unmistakable Bull-eyed mascot while our insoles picture Jordan’s famous playground exhibitions to his “Like Mike” commercial status.
