Air Jordan, in a few lines
It all starts in 1985 with the Air Jordan 1, Michael Jordan's first signature shoe with Nike. A new numbered model follows every year, often designed by Tinker Hatfield: the 3 and its elephant print, the 4, the 11 and its patent leather. The Jumpman, Jordan's silhouette in mid-jump, becomes the logo of the line, then of a brand in its own right from 1997. Reissues of original colorways, new versions and collaborations: it is one of the most closely followed catalogs in sneakers.
