Air Jordan I (Chaussures Air Jordan et nouveau modèle de Jordan 1 pas chères)
Dessinées par Peter Moore et vendues en 1985 , les Air Jordan 1 sont considérées
comme complètement innovantes dans le design de la chaussure de sport,
bien que celui-ci ait été amélioré par la suite avec
les Nike Dunk. Elles eurent encore plus de succès lorsqu’elles
furent interdites par l’association nationale de Basket Ball, prétextant
ses couleurs – noire et rouge-, trop voyantes et allant à l’encontre
du design traditionnellement admis par la ligue.
Air Jordan II (Chaussures Air Jordan et nouveau modèle de Jordan 2 pas chères)
Dessinées par Brice Kilgore , les Air Jordan 2 firent leur discrète
entrée en 1986 à cause de leur prix, 100$ dollars la paire. Mais
la paire fut unique car de cuir italien et dotée de fausse peau de lézard
sur le côté. Dans un match contre le Golden State, Michael Jordan
se brisa une cheville en les portant, ce qui amena beaucoup à penser que
ce fut de la faute des Air Jordan 2. De plus, la semelle souple à l’intérieur
se craquelait facilement, forçant ses utilisateurs à se débarrasser
de la paire. Ce fut la dernière paire d’ Air Jordan à avoir
le logo Wings. Elle fut aussi la première paire à ne pas être
sur fond noir uniquement.
Air Jordan III (Chaussures Air Jordan et nouveau modèle de Jordan 3 pas chères)
Dessinées par Tinker Hatfield, les Air Jordan 3 furent réellement
révolutionnaires. Elles furent les premières Air Jordan à avoir
des bulles d’air visibles sur le talon., le nouveau logo Jumpman , un éléphant
taillé et une chute de cuir qui la firent modèle luxueux.
Elles sont également célèbres pour le surnom humoristique
que leur donna Spike Lee ; Mars Blackmon. Elles ne se vendirent pas bien
lorsqu’elles furent pour la première fois mises sur le marché,
en 1994. Elles firent néanmoins un tabac lorsqu’elles furent remises
sur le marché. Elles furent vendues parfois pour plus de 300 dollars sur
le net. En mars 2007 sortirent les très attendues « Fire
Red » 3. Michael Jordan annonça qu’elles étaient
toujours son modèle préféré. En 2007, la marque Jordan
collabore avec le réalisateur Spike Lee pour dessiner un modèle
d’Air Jordan 3 en édition limitée s’inspirant de l’affiche
du film Do the right thing.
Air Jordan IV (Chaussures Air Jordan et nouveau modèle de Jordan 4 pas chères)
Les Air Jordan 4 firent leur apparition en 1989 et furent dessinées par
Tinker Hatfield. Elles ne furent pas révolutionnaires comme leur modèle
précédent mais elle furent les premières Air Jordan
a être distribuées sur le marché mondial, mis à part
quelques exceptions.
Leurs semelles coussinées et leur design en firent un best-seller
international. En 2006, Nike mit sur le marché beaucoup de modèles
Retro des Air Jordan 4, dont les « Mars Blackmons », les « Military
Blues » et les « Thunder and Lightning » à 500$.
En 2006 sortit également une version Retro des Air Jordan 4 avec des
couleurs exclusives, noir et blanches.
Air Jordan V (Chaussures Air Jordan et nouveau modèle de Jordan 5 pas chères)
Les premières Air Jordan 5 sortirent en 1990. Toujours dessinées
par Hatfield, elles furent encore révolutionnaires. Quelques éléments
furent repris des Air Jordan 4 mais sa grande innovation résida en sa
languette réfléchissante. Une autre de ses particularités
fut sa semelle transparente. Cette semelle lui donne un tout nouveau look, unique,
mais elle devenait rapidement jaune au contact de l’eau . Il fut alors
conseillé de conserver les chaussures dans un endroit propre et sec avec
un absorbeur d’humidité sur la semelle, la plupart du temps des
sachets de silice. Les Jordan 5 disposait d’un fermoir pour les
lacets, rendant le laçage des chaussures plus rapide. On peut voir les
Air Jordan 5 dans la série Le prince de Bel Air par deux fois, une dans
le générique lorsque Will Smith tourne sur sa chaise, et dans le
premier épisode lors du dîner de famille chez les Banks où on
le voit portant une paire de Air Jordan 5 blanche et rouge feu.
Air Jordan VI (Chaussures Air Jordan et nouveau modèle de Jordan 6 pas chères)
Les Air Jordan 6 furent fabriquées en 1990 mais sortirent sur le marché en
1991 au prix de 125$. La paire Rétro des Jordan 6 sortit en 2000. Si les
Air Jordan 5 furent inspirées des avions Mustang Fighter , les Air Jordan
6 s’inspirèrent des Stealth Fighter F-117, utilisés pendant
Tempête du Désert. C’est la paire de chaussures que Michael
Jordan porta lorsqu’il gagna le premier des six championnats qu’il
gagna par la suite.
Leur semelle était transparente, tout comme celle des Air Jordan 5
et devenait jaune lorsque exposée à l’eau . Elle comportait également
une étiquette « tirer » sur la languette. Cette
paire fut combinée aux Air Jordan 11 dans un pack nommé DMP
( Defining Moments Package), qui sortit en 2006.
The Air Jordan VII was released in late 1991 early 1992.
Hatfield created a shoe with lots of similarities with the previous
model. What was unique with the VII's was that they used some of the
Nike Huarache technology to create a shoe that really stuck to your
foot. The visible air sole, the Nike Air logo, and the yellowing soles
all were gone.
When Jordan went to the Olympics with the Dream Team, Nike released
a special Olympic color combo of the VII's. This model also featured
Jordan's Olympic jersey number, 9 which made it very special since all
of the previous models that featured his jersey number had always been
either stitched or printed with the number 23.
Various retros of the Air Jordan VII were released in 2002, again
in 2004, and again in different colors in 2006.
Air Jordan VIII (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 8)
The Air Jordan VIII was released in 1992/93.
The eighth model of the Air Jordan was one heavy shoe. Its base was
clearly close to its predecessor but it had a lot more details, and some
collectors came to call this the flower-power Air Jordan. This shoe was
only made in three different color combinations. The shoes were produced
in less quantity than the VI. The Air Jordan VIII is to be re-retroed
again in the fall of 2007 in its aqua color. If there is a 9 on the back
it is fake.
Air Jordan IX (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 9)
Originally released in November 1993, the IX was the first Jordan
release after his retirement. It was also made as a baseball cleat that
MJ used during his post-Bulls baseball days.
The white/red/black version was worn by MJ for one scene in the
1995 movie Space Jam.
Like the Air Jordan VIIs, and VIIIs, the IXs feature an inner sock
sleeve and nubuck accents. The sole features different symbols and languages
of different countries.
The Air Jordan IX has been immortalized as the shoe chosen to adorn
Jordan's feet for his statue outside of the United Center in Chicago, Illinois.
Air Jordan X (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 10)
What Michael wore when he returned in 1995 before switching to the XI's
in the playoffs, the Xs included a full grain leather upper, with a
solid rubber outsole. They also sported a quick lacing system with
Michael Jordan's previous accomplishments on the outsole. There were
multiple colorways released for different large cities across the United
States. The original colorway, white/steel grey/black featured an extra
piece of leather on the toe for more durability. MJ however did not like
this so Nike removed it on future colorways.This was the one sneaker
that Michael did not fully approve of, this is probably Tinker designed
it and had it made while Michael was still playing baseball.
Air Jordan XI (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 11)
The Air Jordan XI is one of the most popular Air Jordans of all time and
one of the most sought after sneakers of all time. These were the shoes
Jordan wore during his first return to basketball during the 1995-1996
season. They revolutionized all basketball shoes with the use of a
carbon-fiber shank; no one had ever seen so much technology in a
basketball shoe prior to the XI. In fall of 2000, Nike had re-released
the retro version of the Air Jordan XI (officially dubbed Air Jordan XI
Retro) but had made them slightly different from the previous release.
First, the retro's toe was far less likely to crease and was much
stiffer. The patent leather was glossier and the arch on the shoe was
more inclined and less flat. Many argue that the retro version is
superior to the original. Additionally, the Retro had unique colors that
were never released originally including the Space Jam version of the
shoe which sold out in a matter of hours at most stores.
They are also the most illegally copied shoes in the market, with as
much as 1/3 of all Air Jordan XI's sold on eBay being fakes, many of
them coming from China. Fakes of the Air Jordan XI usually have a hard
mid-sole (it is supposed to be soft or at least semi-firm), a low or
barely visible arch on the mid-foot, and a disfigured checkered pattern
on the bottom of the shoe. Many of these fakes lack cushioning and can
be quite uncomfortable to walk in. A first sign to tell that the shoes
are fake is to look for the box that it came in. The box should match
the shoe exactly with the ID number on the box matching the ID number on
the shoe. Often the box is not even a Jordan box or one that is too big
or too small for the shoe with no barcode.
The 11's are schedueled to retro once again in the summer of 2007, but
only low's.
Air Jordan XII (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 12)
This sleek edition was issued in several colors: red and black, white
and obsidian, black and white and in low top style, dark blue and cream
white. These are the first Air Jordans not to feature the Nike logo
anywhere on the shoe itself. The VII-XI still retained the nike air logo
on the insole. It was also the first to use Zoom Air cushioning. The Air
Jordan XII was the shoe that Jordan wore through the 1996-97 season
including his renowned performance in the fifth game of the 1997 NBA
Finals. With the flu, Jordan scored 38 points including a 3-pointer with
21 seconds left to put away the game, after which he was carried off the
court by teammate Scottie Pippen.
Fakes-you can tell they are fake if the Jumpman has no fingers, also if
the shoes are uncomfortable they are undoubtably fake.
Air Jordan XIII (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 13)
The Air Jordan XIII's, from 1997/1998, are some of Michael Jordan's
favorite shoes. They have very good cushioning along with breathability.
This was the same time MJ announced his retirement from the NBA for the
second time. They were designed again by Hatfield. Also they were
re-released in 2005 at about the same time the XX came out.
The shoes were inspired by a black panther, which is known for its
stealth and swiftness. The shoe itself somewhat resembles the paw of a
panther with pods that represent the paws of a panther. This provided
more coverage and support on the basketball court. A hologram is
features on the outer heel of the shoe which changes color as the viewer
moves around the shoe. The hologram is known to fog up after many years.
This represents the eyes of the panther in the dark.
Air Jordan XIV (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 14)
This shoe was a revolutionary part of his career blending in 1-13. The
XIV was modeled after the Ferrari with its sleek design, and Jordan
logo. It is still worn by his fans and people all over the world. There
are over 9 colors of the XIV including his Bulls color white, and black.
According to solecollector.com's shoe expert Professor K, the Air Jordan
XIV is the most comfortable Jordan ever, even as a retro shoe.
It is known for being the best Jordan in terms of performance, blowing
away even the most modern of basketball sneakers
As an added extra, there are seven Jumpman logos on each shoe, 7 + 7=
14.
The black/varsity red - black version is sometimes referred to as the
last shots because Jordan was wearing them during the last game he
played with the Bulls which he finished with a game-winning shot over
Bryon Russell. It was the first and only time in Jordan's professional
career he wore the shoe.
Air Jordan XV (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 15)
As the first Air Jordans released after Jordan's second retirement,
sharing a similarity to the Air Jordan IX in that Jordan never played
professionally in the shoe. There was some skepticism as to their
comfort. The tongue of the shoe stuck out to mimic Jordan's well known
habit of sticking his tongue out while playing. The woven kevlar Jordan
15 was modeled after the fighter jet plane.
This was supposed to be Tinker Hatfield's last Air Jordan (he later came
back to design the Air Jordan XX) and is widely recognized as being
somewhat of a failure in terms of performance and style.
Air Jordan XVI (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 16)
The first Air Jordan to have the removable shroud concept. The shroud,
or gaiter, was said to be a pre/post game accessory to dress the shoe
up. The shroud was not recommended to be worn during gameplay. It also
featured a patent leather toe with the toe being more square that a
traditional shoe toe. This concept has been reused in many of the later
Air Jordans. This was the first shoe since the Air Jordan VI to feature
visible Air. It also was the first to feature a clear rubber sole since
the Air Jordan XI.
This was the Air Jordan shoe Michael used in his first game (pre-season)
in his 2nd comeback.
Air Jordan XVII (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 17)
This shoe comes equipped with a silver suitcase,which held the shoes and
a CD containing the AJ XVII song. As well as a steep price of $200 when
first released. Known as the most expensive Jordans ever produced. They
were made in 4 mid top colors.
Air Jordan XVIII (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 18)
The last shoe Michael Jordan ever played a professional game in. The
first release was Black/Royal followed by the White/Royal colorway and
finished off with a White/Red colorway. All colorways released came with
embroidered towels reading "Air Jordan" and the famous Jumpman logo, but
the Black/Royal colorway was the only one that came with a suede brush
for easy cleaning. The upper was suede and had a cover over the laces
and was very nice. The XVIII featured full length Zoom Air and a
double-stacked Zoom Air unit in the heel. It also had a carbon fiber
spring plate. The inspiration of this shoe was from the aggressive and
elegant styling of European sports cars, which is reflected in this
magnificent shoe.
Air Jordan XIX (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 19)
Released in 2004 and modeled after the black mamba snake, this is the
first Jordan release after his third, and final, retirement. Three
special editions were released. They consisted of the East, West, and
Olympic edition.
The Air Jordan XIX uses innovative materials. The upper was developed in
collaboration with Material ConneXion Inc. from a sleeving normally used
in architectural applications for protecting PVC pipes from bursting. In
theory, this allowed for a lace-less shoe because the sleeving does not
stretch, however the XIX1 did include a set of laces behind the sleeve
to better secure the shoe. While the sleeve is an interesting design
concept, its functionality is questionable.
Air Jordan XX (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 20)
Air Jordan XX feature a leather strap which contains icons representing
the history of Jordan. Inspired by motor-cycling shoes, it was the first
design involving Tinker Hatfield since the XV.
The shoe is low cut, but has an adjustable 'floating' ankle strap or
'leash' the strap can be anchored to the front of the ankle area, or
left detached from it. Even when detached from the anchor point at the
front, the strap remains attached at the back, and still provides ankle
support.
Air Jordan XXI (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 21)
The Air Jordan XXI was released on February 18, 2006 during the NBA
All-Star Weekend in a white/black/red colorway, with the red/black color
in suede way released on February 25, 2006. It retailed for $175 a pair,
with the suede colorway being $5 extra. This model Air Jordan took its
designs from the highest and lowest cut Jordans, and also a Bentley
inspired grill for the side vents. It also has replaceable pods in the
heel that you can switch out: from a Zoom Air pod to a Air-Sole pod, to
personalize the cushioning to your liking.
A 60-second commercial featured basketball players performing moves that
have become Jordan signatures.
Air Jordan XXII (Cheap Air Jordans Shoes / New Jordan 22)
The Air Jordan XXII (referred to in advertisements as XX2) was released
on February 17, 2007 on Michael Jordan's 44th birthday. It retails for
$175, although Niketown.com had a special discount ($125) the day it was
released and offered free shipping with it as well. The aggressive and
sharp design is said to be inspired by the F-22 Raptor fighter jet. Some
technical features of the shoe include the return of the Independent
Podular Suspension (IPS), as featured in the XX and XXI, and a titanium
shank plate to provide midsole support. It also includes two pairs of
interchangeable heel pillars similiar to the ones found in the Air
Jordan XXI, although this time the Zoom Air pillars contain
double-stacked Zoom Air units.
A 60-second commercial, produced by the New York advertising agency
Wieden and Kennedy, debuted on February 7, 2007 during a University of
North Carolina and Duke men's college basketball game. The advertisement
is set in a high school men's basketball game and features a member of
the visiting team stealing an inbounds pass, breaking down the court,
and dunking in Jordan's signature Jumpman (logo) style, defeating the
home team by one point at the buzzer. The advertisement features the
Lacrimosa verse of the Requiem Mass as composed by Mozart performed by
the St. Paul Chamber Orchestra and the St. Olaf Choir.
