Jordan Shoes are well known through out the world for their style and comfort. Jordan shoes are now sold by Jordan brand. Michael Jordan, a professional NBA basket ball player was the inspiration behind Jordan shoes. In 1985, Nike was looking to break into the basket ball shoes market with a bang. They saw that Michael Jordan, the rising star could give them the much needed boost. Jordan Shoes were born in red and black colour combination.

Jordan Shoes released Air Jordan 1V in 1989 and it was the first model released into the global market. With its cushioning sole and comfort design this model became an international best seller. Air Jordan 5 from Jordan shoes released in 1990 had a reflective tongue and clear rubber soles as its distinguishing feature. Air Jordan V1 released in late 1990 has the distinction of being the Jordan shoes sporting which Michael Jordan won his first NBA championship. The seventh version from Jordan Shoes released in 1991 used the Nike Huarache technology which ensured that the shoes stuck comfortably to the wearer’s feet. It also had a visible air sole and the Nike Air logo as exclusive design features.
