The sports company Nike and Jordan together made 126 million dollars by the end of one year. This was a big success for the company. Jordan wore these shoes in November 1, 1984 in NBA game. Jordon had his own clothes and shoes that were called Air Jordan. This created a record as it was the highest price made by selling the shoes. The shoes were sold at an auction.
