only reason i still wear nikes is because out of all brands they have the most balls and back then qulity was crazy good these were 65 when i got them
Great post OP. The commercial that started it all!!!! They were banned because the NBA claimed that they didn't go along with the team's uniform. Must be a lot of amateurs in here with that "made him jump higher" nonsense lol come on man. Buy a jordan book or something. Do ur homework before making outlandish comments...
your all dumbasses they were banned because they thought they were made with super-bounce rubber like what they make tennis balls with. thats why they thought he could jump so high and far.
they used to hava dress code so that players shoes had to match their kits..just like wimbledon has a dress code stating that tennis players must wear predominanetly white clothing.
lol, they were banned because of dress code, he kept wearing them however because nike paid off the fines as it was cheaper for them to advertise them that way then pay for adverts everywhere else:)
yes they wer banned cuz they were blak but jordan said he didnt like em cuz they were devils colors no1 sed that they wer banned cuz of devils colors lol
You are idiots. The NBA banned them because all the shoes that players wore were white and they didn't want black shoes on the court. Not because of blood or "devil colours". lol shut up
they didn't want that shoe cuz it was too "colorful" according to this passage and the nba said that it needs to have white so then thats why the chicago ones (OG 1985 1's) were made and offical
they where illega due to the colour being red, means blood doesnt show up, its like if u go in a hospital no doctors are wearing red for the same reason.
back then u had to wear llike all white shoes or sum shit they had to pay a fine for every game jordan wore them nike paid for it of course look at all the money he's made them
it was illegal to wear red sneakers back then (for some reason) but nike made the commercial seem like they banned the sneakers cause they were making him better or some shit.
it wasnt illegal to have red. shoes needed to have a certain amount of white on them, and these didnt have enough. thats y the jordan II were almost entirely white. too bad the nba doesnt have more white now lol
they banned it coz they thought it's the color of the devil... NBA fined mj for wearing it every game for $ 5,000 but nike didnt hesitate to pay that due...
haha because it was the colour of the devil...!? wtf... it was because of what K3VB.... said. Jordan said himself he didnt want to wear the shoe when he first saw it becuase it was the devils colours (which is stupid because he already wore the entire bulls kit which was that colour). and he obviously did start wearing them anyway, and nike were fined loads of money every time he wore them. which gave them lots of publicity, which is partly why they became so popular.

what do u mean by blood doesent show up
?
n3vercool1337 2 years ago
its cuz by law u have to wear clothes that can show traces of blood easily, so wearing red will hide the blood o they became illegal.
