While NBA superstars started endorsing shoes in the 1970s, it was the 1985 introduction of Air Jordans that kicked the premium basketball footwear market into full bloom. Add these historically significant shoes to your collection, with this original 1985 size "10" Nike Air Jordan I pair. Laced up in black, these iconic shoes are well-worn on the soles, however they retain an attractive shape and the classic red, white and black uppers show plenty of integrity, despite moderate wear. The Air Jordan logos on the exterior side of the uppers are bold, the Nike Air labels on the tops of the tongues present handsomely, and the Nike Swoosh appliqués sport nice gloss. Jordan-related collectibles continue to skyrocket in value, and these trend-setting shoes are favored to jump in the right direction very soon, as the upcoming "Air" movie starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, regarding the origin of these famous shoes, is set to hit theaters just as this auction is ending.
