1985 Michael Jordan Dunk Contest Air Jordan 1

1985 Slam Dunk Contest
In 1985 for his first all-star weekend, Michael Jordan battled Dominique Wilkins for the slam dunk contest title. He came up short thanks to Dominique’s impressive dunk repertoire including his signature windmill. While MJ didn’t win the trophy, his performance will forever remain in the minds of sneakerheads especially, thanks to the beautiful black and red Air Jordan 1s on his feet (not to mention the gold chains).

1985 All-Star Game
Jordan’s impressive NBA All-Star career began right away during his rookie season, where he landed a starting spot on the Eastern Conference team. While he only totalled 7 points, he held his own as a rookie all-star starter among greats like Julius Erving, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Larry Bird, and the man guarding him here in Nike Air Force 1s, “The Iceman” George Gervin. Going with “Bred” Air Jordan 1s for the slam dunk contest, for the game he opted for the iconic “Chicago” colorway.
