Air Jordan product line

I've never seen a pair of Jordans that I liked. They all look awkward and clunky, and the colors look like they've been picked by someone on their 4th red bull. They seem to be over hyped, I don't know anything that can stay instyle for decades besides these shoes.

I also hate that they're basketball shoes that are too expensive to play basketball in, same as a luxury off road vehicle, pointless.

Just cause they are expensive doesn't make them look nice. I hate when people pair them with suits. Sure wear a navy suit but pair black and red sneakers with them.

Edit: I don't care what race you are when you wear these shoes. I understand they have a cultural significance but I'm speaking from an aesthetic viewpoint only.

Let me preface this by saying I'm not an expert on Jordans. ( ) This is the result of a couple of weeks worth of interest in getting a pair of dank high tops. Hopefully, you all will get some enjoyment out of it.

"In 1984, after winning a national title at the University of North Carolina and a Gold Medal at the Olympic games in Los Angeles, was selected 3rd overall by the Chicago Bulls in the NBA Draft. That year Nike also signed Michael to a five-year endorsement contract worth a reported $2.5 million (plus royalties). There was initially some skepticism over the hefty contract being given to an unproven marketing commodity, but MJ was quick to prove the critics wrong.

In 1985, Nike gave Jordan and his signature line of sneakers and apparel a unique logo - clearly, this line was created to be very different from Nike's previous basketball efforts." -

"Before the AIR JORDAN, all basketball shoes were white. This simple statement only begins to describe the sheer magnitude of the changes that were about to occur to the sport of basketball and to the athletic footwear industry once Michael Jordan entered the league. Since Michael’s arrival and the launch of the AIR JORDAN franchise, both the game and the industry have been utterly transformed.

Each year, a new AIR JORDAN is unveiled. An annual event since its debut in 1985, each unveiling has been met with ever-increasing anticipation from the media, the industry, and the buying public. AIR JORDANs perennially dominate the market in sales and demand, establishing with each year’s model higher benchmark standards in design, innovation and performance for the entire athletic footwear industry. At the heart of the franchise is the perfect synergy between athlete and technology – Michael Jordan, the greatest player in the history of basketball, and the shoes he’s worn throughout his illustrious career that epitomize his relentless dedication to performance, innovation and achievement." -
