Nike’s Air Jordans are a brand of basketball shoes by Nike in collaboration with the legend Michael Jordan, widely regarded as the best player of the game. They were launched in 1985, with the first shoe called Air Jordan 1. There have been 36 editions of these shoes, about one edition is released per year.

There are a lot of reasons as to why the Jordans are one of the most, if not the most, well known shoes in the world. The biggest reason is most likely the fact that Nike is the world’s biggest and trusted athletic apparel brand and Michael Jordan is the biggest basketball star ever to exist. A collaboration between such a perfect pair was guaranteed to be massively successful.
