Air Jordans
The Air Jordan line of basketball shoes was first produced by Nike for Michael Jordan in 1984, with the first shoe released to the public in April 1985. The shoes were designed by Peter Moore, Tinker Hatfield, and Bruce Kilgore, and were marketed to the public despite violating NBA regulations by not being 51% white. The shoes generated over $126 million in sales in the first year, exceeding Nike's expectations, and the brand has since become a huge success, bringing in $5.1 billion to Nike in 2022 alone. The iconic "Jumpman" logo, which originated from a photo shoot with Michael Jordan, has become one of the most recognizable logos in the athletics industry, appearing on various forms of wear including sneakers, attire, hats, socks, and more.learn more on wikipedia
