Air Jordan 1 was launched in 1985. It was Nike's first basketball shoe named after Jordan. It was this pair of shoes that started an era. The shape of Air Jordan 1 was inspired by the popular Air Force 1 that year, while reducing the thickness of the midsole, reducing weight, increasing the feeling of grounding, and using an Air Sole air cushion in the back palm; the most classic flying wing logo came from Peter Moore, Nike's creative director at the time. At the same time, Michael Jordan made his mark in the NBA and international competitions wearing Air Jordan 1, made a brilliant appearance in the first All-Star Game, and was honored as the Rookie of the Year. Today, Air Jordan 1 has become a classic combination of fashion trends, often appearing in major fashion ICONs and trendy street photos.
