As we got to the ten-year anniversary of MJ playing in the NBA, the introduction of the Air Jordan Retro debuted. This box was for the Air Jordan 1 Retro issued in 1994. The box itself is all black while the box top features a collage of pictures showcasing his career up to this point as well as the different Air Jordan models released.
It’s become a global phenomenon, the likes of which we may never see again. The perfect team assembled from the start: the alpha player in Michael Jordan, a corporate maverick savvy enough to leverage the young star in Phil Knight, and an architect-turned-designer in Tinker Hatfield eager to redefine the industry with his problem-solving approach to footwear. It was a time when the sun, moon and Mars aligned, and the dominance that Michael Jordan displayed nightly as a young Chicago Bull captured the imagination of adoring fans across the globe. Chicago soon began to beat, repeat and three-peat against the competition, twice, and the innovation making its way out of Beaverton was unparalleled across the footwear industry, marking both aesthetic and athletic firsts, as both the legendary Air Jordan shoe and Michael’s playing career itself reached mythical status.
