The Story That Changed Everything
In 1985, the NBA banned this black and red colorway because it did not comply with the league's dress code. Nike paid the $5000 fines per game for Michael Jordan to continue wearing them. This ban created enormous media buzz and launched the legend of the Air Jordan 1. The "Banned" colorway became one of the most iconic in sneaker history. Wearing this pair means wearing a piece of rebellious basketball history.
