Jordan Brand recently celebrated a key moment in sneaker history, marking 40 years since Michael Jordan’s famous NBA sneaker violation. On October 18, 1984, Jordan wore a pair of black and red Nike sneakers during a preseason game. In February 1985, this choice led the NBA issuing a letter that the black and red Air Ships worn by Jordan violated the league’s uniform policy. While many associate this event with the Air Jordan 11 Bred 2012 378037 010 “Banned,” Jordan actually wore the Nike Air Ship that night.
Jordan Brand’s Instagram post honoring this event has stirred excitement among sneaker fans. Many believe this could be the start of the buildup for the upcoming release of the Air Jordan 11 Bred 2012 378037 010 High 85 “Bred”, set for February 2025. The “Banned” story has always fueled the iconic status of the Air Jordan 11 Bred 2012 378037 010, with its striking black and red colorway symbolizing rebellion both on and off the court.
This 40th-anniversary celebration highlights not only Jordan’s impact on the game but mars the sneaker culture. The Air Jordan 11 Bred 2012 378037 010 “Bred” is considered one of the most legendary sneakers ever made. When the 2025 re-release happens, it will undoubtedly capture global attention from sneakerheads. Whether this Instagram post is a marketing teaser or simply a tribute, the legacy of the “Banned” sneaker continues to inspire.
As we look forward to what’s next, the influence of this historic moment remains strong. The Air Jordan 11 Bred 2012 378037 010’s place in sneaker culture is unmatched, and it will continue to motivate future generations of sneaker 2k9.
