We all know that in early 1984 the Nike company was in struggling, due to the situation was so harsh for
Air Jordans 9. And then considered to cooperate with Jordan. However, Jordan preferred Adidas at that time, and he did not show interesting in Nike shoes. And it was his agent David Falk that urged Jordan to have a deal with Nike. And there was few shoe endorsement at that time, and few companies were willing to risk to have an athlete as spokesman to promote their
Jordans 9 Retro. But Nike saw the opportunity in Jordan, and something special. He was a championship in his personality, always show excellent performance in the basketball court, so the Nike were willing to put the company on the line.The colors (some not-so-rules friendly), the swagger, the athlete — it all contributed to a seismic shift for Nike and for the athletic footwear industry at large. In the years following its debut, the Air Jordan I also took on an unintended legacy, that of
Original Air Jordan Shoes.
