Brought to you by JordanDepot.com MJ may have forever retired from basketball in 1999, but his memory and legacy are going to live on in history forever. Even today his records, NBA titles, and Air Jordan shoes are on the radar of the current President of the United States, Barack Obama.

The fashion explosion was a direct result of this shoe phenomenon, and it all started in Chicago with the first release of the Retro I (1) in 1985.
