Jordan III - 1987
$ 93.00Michael Jordan received his first NBA MVP award during the 87-88 NBA season, wearing the Air Jordan III. He also swept the Slam Dunk competition and led the Bulls to its best performance in the NBA’s standings since the 74-75 season.
The Air Jordan III was released in 1988, designed by Tinker Hatfield. Totally different from the I’s and II’s, it was the first pair of Air Jordans that had a visible air sole. This was also the first Air Jordan to feature the Jumpman logo instead of the Wings found on the I’s and II’s. One of the most popular AJ’s ever, it was advertised by Spike Lee as “Mars Blackmon”. That commercial followed Air Jordan for a few years and became one of the most appreciated Nike commercials of all time.
