Without a doubt the most popular sneaker ever made is the Air Jordan. The Best basketball player ever Michael Jordan, started the brand. The first Jordan's released were the Air Jordan 1's, released in 1985. Originally the sneakers were made and produced by the Nike brand. Now the sneakers are made by the Jordan Brand. You can buy the same sneakers that Michael Jordan wore on the basketball court. There has not been a year where less than 10 Air Jordan's were released.
There are two ways to classify Air Jordan's. Retro and OG. The OG Jordan's were worn by Michael and released during his time of basketball. Retro's were similar to the OG's but updated. It is obvious that it is harder to get your hands on a pair of OG's, and more expensive. Collectors (sneaker heads) buy, sell, and trade to get new pairs of OG's or Retro's. One place where you can get any Air Jordans, either OG or Retro is Flightclub.com. This website only carries authentic Jordans and also carries, Nike Air Max, Nike Basketball, G-Shocks, Fited/Snapcap hats, Nike Sb's, and Many more.
Michael Jordan wore the number 23 on his jersey. He has also numbered his signature sneakers numbers 1-23, But it does not stop there. There has also been a line of team Jordans. These were released for basketball. Almost all numbered Jordans are not worn for basketball, but for fashion. To keep market alive each numbered Jordans have been released in many color ways. The OG 11's are called concord 11's, but there were also pink sneak skin 11's, cool gray 11's, Space Jam 11's, DMP 11's and many more. Along with numbered Jordans are 6 rings, Spizikes, and 2010's. The 6 Rings are a combination of all 6 sneakers Michael Jordan was wearing when he won all of his 6 championships with the Chicago Bulls. The Spizikes were mad for Spike Lee. Spike Lee mad a movie where his name was Mars Blackmon, a crazy Michael jordan fan.
