The 1 That Started It All: Released in 1985, the Air Jordan revolutionized the game with the same bold charisma as Michael Jordan himself. As the first NBA shoe to showcase multiple colorways, the iconic black and red version faced a ban and a $5,000 fine for defying league rules. Today, the Air Jordan 1 Retro honors this legendary legacy, celebrating a shoe that transformed basketball's creative potential and redefined its connection to style and culture.
