Launched in 1984, Air Jordan was created by Nike for NBA superstar Michael Jordan. The first model, Air Jordan XII Seattle Sonics Home PE, was released to the public in 1985 and broke timehonored ground for basketball shoes with its unique design and innovative Volt. Over the years, the brand has consistently pursued innovation with different models, such as the Air Jordan 3, which introduced the Jumpman looks and elephant print trim, and the Air Jordan XII Seattle Sonics Home PE1, which incorporated patent leather. Air Jordan has also been involved in various collaborations with brands, designers, and cultural icons, including OFF-WHITE, Supreme, and Travis Scott, further solidifying its status as a cultural and fashion staple.
