Air Jordan Shoe Line Follows the Glittering Career of MJ

The first year MJ stepped foot in the basketball field in ’84, he never failed to awe Chicago Bulls basketball fans by garnering awards year after year.  His prowess and stamina, and simply brilliant basketball moves earned him a Rookie of the Year in ’85 and it also marked the start of his flourishing shoe line under Nike.  By then, white athletic shoes are the trend but MJ’s Air Jordan made athletic shoes interesting.  His black and red Air Jordan sneakers gained attention that it even challenged NBA’s regulation on the color of sneakers.  However, MJ couldn’t just let his black and red Air Jordan sit in the sidelines.  Needless to say, he embraced the challenge and even accepted the fine of $5,000 US Dollars every time he wears his Air Jordan to the basketball court.  Of course, Nike paid the tab. 

Since then, a new Air Jordan sneaker tickles the fancy of both basketball fanatics and sneaker-loving citizens.  New Air Jordan designs, colorful of course, grace Nike stores every year as a result of Nike designers’ endless researches and innovations. In every Air Jordan, comfort is given utmost attention but most importantly, its design that could further enhance basketball performance.  Basketball players, professionals or otherwise, are treated to a comfortable twist and turns in the basketball court that further made Jordan Retro 8 Shoes and other Air Jordan sneakers a must-have.  So, what’s in this Retro line?  The legacy of MJ’s excellence of course.
