Designed by Peter Moore , the Air Jordan 1 High is one of the most iconic and influential sneakers in history. First released in 1985 , it was designed for Michael Jordan as a basketball shoe, and its extraordinary performance helped make it legendary. In the years that followed, two other variations were introduced, the Air Jordan 1 Mid and the Air Jordan 1 Low , designed primarily for everyday and casual use, while maintaining the unmistakable style of the original model.
