Michael Jordan has been dominant on and off the court for almost 40 years now throughout this time
he has won six NBA championships and most people say he could have easily won more if he would
have never retired three times and most people know him now and current time for becoming a
billionaire and is heavily related to his sneakers Jordan brand has currently released 37 different
signature models when it comes to his sneakers and over the years the majority of those models
have become very iconic nostalgic and overall just dope so in today's video we're going to be talking
about the top 10 Air Jordan Silhouettes to ever release coming in at Tim's place we have the Air
Jordan 9 originally released in 1993 retailing at 125 and designed by Tinker Hatfield Michael
Jordan was fresh off of his first retirement after winning three back-to-back championships it's time
for me to move away from the game of basketball and decided to go play for the Birmingham Barons
and we also saw him wearing a baseball cleat version of this shoe which if you can get your
hands on the actual shoe that he wore trust me that she was going for a lot of money during the
same time Michael Jordan decided to give player exclusive versions to some of the players that
were actually active in the NBA during those same years we saw notable players like Penny Hardaway
Kendall Gill BJ Armstrong and Mitch Richmond all wearing exclusive pairs catered to themselves the
Air Jordan 9 was also seen in the movie Space Jam another iconic film and from a sneaker head
standpoint you can never go wrong with this shoe I would consider putting these a little bit higher
up on the list but at the same time there's a lot of good shoes that have come out over
the years and either way I'm just happy they're on the top 10. coming in at number nine we have
the Air Jordan 7 originally releasing in 1992 retelling at 125 dollars and designed by Tinker
Hatfield their Jordan 7 has been a very iconic model for many years now or seeing him wearing
them that same year on Pursuit for his second NBA title when it comes to this model there's
definitely a lot of iconic colorways when it comes to the Olympics the Cardinals the Bordeaux and the
dark charcoals also known as the Raptors this is a sneaker that definitely deserves to be on this
list and when it comes to the design elements of the sneaker they were inspired by the West
African tribal Prince and the sharp lines that you see throughout the upper also in 1992 the
harachi was hot on the scene and decided to use it the same neoprene technology and fit when it
comes to the booty that you see on this model and that also helped decrease the weight of the shoe
making these some of the lightest sneakers in the game at the time now before we get into the next
model I wanted to let you guys know I posted a poll on my YouTube Community tab that's where
I got all the results from and this is based off of the audience My Views were a little bit
different when it comes to this top 10 but I'm going off of what you guys said we had over 10
000 people vote when it comes to this list so I'm excited to show you guys the next model let's go
ahead and get into it and that is the Air Jordan 13 originally released in 1997 retailing at 150
and designed by Tinker Hatfield Michael Jordan wore these in Pursuit for his six championships
and the shoe was originally inspired by the Black Panther as you can see the different elements from
the Paw and the similarities to the midfoot of the shoe or the eye of the Panther on the hologram on
the side of the foot little did they know Michael Jordan had already been nicknamed the black cat
in the league and they ended up using that same black cat nickname on other models that we then
saw in the future everybody remembers Michael Jordan's last shot in his sixth Championship win
as he wore the Air Jordan 14s but a lot of people forgot that he actually wore the 13s at season
two The Air Jordan 13 has been reiterated in so many different colorways collaboration styles
Cuts materials when it comes to the highs and the lows but either way at the end of the day I know
for a fact a lot of people love this sneaker now when it comes from the sneaker hair perspective
a lot of collectors say Air Jordan 1 through 14 or Air Jordan 1 through 13. so this sneaker in
particular was on that line of people liking and not liking the higher number Jordan models simply
because they say if he didn't play in them they don't count even though he re-entered into the
NBA later and played in higher numbers like the 18s and 19s but we'll talk about that a little
bit later now taking into the next shoe that I know a lot of people love we have the Air Jordan
12 originally released in 1996 retailing at 135 dollars and designed by Tinker Hatfields the Air
Jordan 12 was designed by the Japanese flag this is a very clean and simple model that has been
easily recreated in a lot of different two-tone color blocking patterns and a lot of people love
them this was the first Air Jordan model to feature an ultra responsive Zoom error unit as
well as lateral and medial support panels just designed to work together to create one of the
most durable shoes in the sneaker series The Shoe also had a full length carbon fiber shank plate
and these originally released in five different colorways and I can guarantee you to any sneaker
head they love all five of them at least I think so I do what about you let me know Down Below in
the comment section another iconic moment that a lot of people won't forget when it comes to the
Air Jordan 12 the flu game and we can't forget to mention in 1997 Michael Jordan also went to
his 11th NBA All-Star game he won his ninth NBA scoring title he was named First Team all NBA and
all defense oh yeah anyone is fifth Championship so I'm pretty sure it's safe to say there's a
lot of history Nostalgia and iconic moments when it comes to this shoe that cause people to just
naturally love them and it's a pretty clean shoe to say the least next up on the list we have one
of my favorite sneakers of all time and I don't know how this didn't make the top five I did a
vote on these later because it was on the clutch a 5th or sixth and it is in sixth place the Air
Jordan 6 originally released in 1991 retailing at 125 and designed by Tinker Hatfield my Michael
Jordan wanted his first NBA title in this shoe and to me opened up a whole new chapter in his
career and we can't forget to mention a couple of the OG fan favorites of the infrared and Carmine
6. oh those are some of my favorites now those right there chef's kiss now a couple things that
made this shoe even more iconic we saw Vin Baker and Ray Allen wearing these in the 2000 Olympics
with Olympic colorway a lot of people thought that was a OG for Michael Jordan but that was actually
for them back in that time we have seen different PES from different collectors or images online and
I'm telling you right now those are fire as well but I think one that a lot of people forget to
mention is Jerry Seinfeld we saw him wearing the Air Jordan sixes and I'm telling you right now
that was very iconic to see him mixing fashion and culture on and off the court now coming in
at fifth place we have another fitting model in placing and that is the Air Jordan 5. originally
released in 1990 retailing at 125 and designed by Tinker Hatfield the Air Jordan 5 was a statement
of Jordan's aggressive nature on the court with the 3M reflective tongue and everybody's seeing
him in the Limelight it was definitely a sneaker that was hard to resist some design elements that
people may or may not had known of was Tinker Hatfield's inspiration from a World War II P-51
Mustang fighter jet as you see the shark teeth on the side of the foot around the midsole that's
where the that came from now we had seen the exposed air unit from the previous models of
the Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 4. but one thing that was new to the game the iced outsoles this
was the first Model that introduced that element and we saw other models repeat that same Trend to
follow after and we can't forget to mention the iconic colorways of the grapes the metallics and
both of the fire red colorways this may not be one of the most trendy sneakers in the game but
I can guarantee you year over year a lot of people love this shoe and they're definitely
well deserving of being in the top five but when you see the next four shoes you understand why
they didn't rank any higher than this oh yeah for those of you that voted on the Air Jordan Fives
over the sixes y'all tripping bro I still think the sixes are the best all right you guys we got
four sneakers left on the list now this next one right here I think personally is a number one but
the people voted they said it's in fourth place the Air Jordan 11 originally released in 1995
retelling at 125 and designed by Tinker Hatfield the Air Jordan 11 in my opinion is one of the most
iconic sneakers to ever be made Tinker Hatfield yet again took Innovation to a whole nother level
by introducing patent leather on an NBA basketball shoot not only did these look stylish on the court
they looked really nice off the court and people even considered these as dress shoes this was a
super high performance shoe called the Jordan 11. and this shoe was like I think it's my all-time
favorites too because there is so much technology in this shoe and I ain't gonna lie to you I didn't
definitely wore some Jordan 11s with some suits before not only does everybody remember seeing
Michael Jordan wearing the Playoff 11s after winning his championship or seeing Boyz II Men
rocking the Concord 11s on stage we can't forget to mention Space Jam for me being a kid growing up
in the 90s that was one of the most iconic movies in a moment that I will never forget the Air
Jordan 11 has a special place and a lot of sneaker heads hearts and it's rare that you'll see anybody
that just simply doesn't like the shoe at all every year during Christmas for the past 10 years
we have seen special colorways and iterations or remakes of OG colorways something similar to this
with the 45 on the back we saw this one released a couple years ago but every single Christmas it
becomes the holiday sneaker and we know everybody goes crazy for this model we have seen alternate
colorways with The High Top Model come out in the past and a lot more low top iterations but
when it comes to the high top in particular Jordan brand has definitely been very careful about that
model and protecting it from being flooded with too many colorways similar to other models that
we have seen in the past now obviously I have a huge bias when it comes to the Air Jordan 6
because that's my favorite model of all time but when it comes to the Air Jordan 11 I think overall
is an opinion for the people it has to be number one right how could this be placed at number four
but after you see the next three models it just might make sense coming in at third place and
yet fitting again the Air Jordan 3 originally releasing in 1988 retailing at a hundred dollars
this was Tinker Hatfield's first Jordan model that he had an opportunity to design himself
not only did he take designing to a whole nother level and create one of the most iconic sneakers
ever there were so many nostalgic moments in this time with collaborations with Legends like Spike
Lee on different commercials and advertisements or seeing Michael Jordan soaring through the air
jumping from the free throw line to win the dunk contest or him pulling out the blacks and man 3's
darn all-star weekend and trust me the list goes on the Air Jordan 3 is definitely a very loved
shoe when it comes to sneaker heads people that don't know much about sneakers just people in
general they know about the model they've seen it before if they don't know everything about
it hopefully I taught you a couple things but either way definitely iconic shoot and I can
understand why it made the top three now next up on the list I think snuck its way up over
the past couple years don't get me wrong this is a fire shoot for sure I have plenty of pairs in my
collection but I was kind of surprised by this one just based off of you know what I thought
from like older Sneakerhead generations to what's going on now and maybe it's skewed by the voters
that voted but it is what it is second place the Air Jordan 4. there has definitely been a lot of
different factors that may have played to the placing of this shoe don't get me wrong again
a classic but there have been a lot of different models and prices being hiked up when it comes to
the general releases that have come out to the public over the past couple years and drawing a
huge demand behind this model and say at one point during the voting this was actually in first place
and I was really surprised originally releasing in 1998 retelling at a hundred and ten dollars
and designed by Tinker Hatfield the Air Jordan 4 was heavily known for taking flight with the
flight branding on the tongue in this iconic font it became a staple in the game and next thing you
know everybody loved them originally releasing in the white cement black cement military blue
and fire red colorway this shoe has been hot on the scene ever since although the Air Jordan 4
does show similarities when it comes to the back tab in the Nike Air or the exposed air
unit on the midsole this shoe definitely has its own elements and characteristics that took
the Jordan to a whole nother level after its original release they decided to Retro the
black and white cement colorways back in 1999 and they sold out immediately from that point on they
decided to introduce new colorways materials and collaborations and because of that we see some
models fetching for over fifty thousand dollars now before we take it to the final sneaker I want
to say thank you guys for watching this video and again don't forget to hit that subscribe
button and join the fam if you want to see any more videos like this in the future now now
I'm excited to show you guys this model I wasn't shocked all the way but I still think the Jordan
11 is the best sneaker of all time it is what it is I'm pretty sure you guys know what it is
by now the Air Jordan one originally releasing in 1985 retailing at 65 and designed by Peter
Moore we saw iconic posters of him wearing the sneaker while he was dunking in his flight suit
next thing you know it became the Jumpman logo or huge commercials about the sneaker being banned
and him being charged five thousand dollars back in 1988 for wearing the shoes on court
Nike created a revolutionary new basketball shoe on October 18th the NBA threw them out of the game
fortunately the NBA can't stop you from wearing them even though it was the airships which is a
whole other story we'll talk about that later but either way the Jordan one came hot on the
scene and everybody was loving them soon as they hit the market year over year over year retro
over retro over retro colorway over colorway over colourway the sneaker has been around for over 30
years now and has created a huge hype in the game and I can guarantee you any sneaker head out there
that collects Jordans especially they got a pair of Jordan Ones in their collection and if they
haven't gotten a pair yet they plan on getting a pair for their collection because there's just
so many iconic OG colorways there were a lot that came out originally plus all the special
colorways collaborations releases you name it from the current time now and then obviously the height
behind the Chicago Air Jordan one right here this is a classic iconic colorway something that we saw
Michael Jordan bring back on the court later in his career something that we saw on the court at
the beginning of his career and one thing that we know about a lot of sneakers is collaborations or
you name it typically the first ever one that has been created always has the one with the
most value the most Nostalgia or whatever because if it wasn't for this and the success over time
none of the other sneakers would have came so I completely understand why people chose this as
the number one sneaker there's a lot of different options all the different factors I know I have
my own personal opinions that people voted what they voted I probably would have put these at
second place it is what it is but hey you know what I'm saying let me know what you think Down
Below in the comment section either way I hope you guys enjoyed this this was the top 10 Air Jordan
