The Air Jordan wasn't without its controversy - upon its 1985 debut it was banned by the NBA as players were expected to wear matching footwear on the basketball court. Nike decided to pay the fine for each on-court appearance, and Michael Jordan went on to make the Air Jordan 1 one of the most famous silhouettes of all time. Reissued this season in complementing shades of black and red, the silhouette's genuine leather and suede uppers are ornamented with Jumpman branding to the lace surround and sidewalls. Below, an encapsulated Air midsole unit delivers supreme levels of cushioning, and a rubber outsole underfoot ensures firm traction on and off the court - 554724-054, Leather & Synthetic Upper/ Synthetic Sole.
