All eyes were on ESPN's latest presentation of "The Last Dance" last night—the ten-part documentary series highlighting the Chicago Bulls' 1997-98 championship season and more legendary moments from Michael Jordan's illustrious carreer. Unsurprisingly, a few vintage sneakers also made their way onto the screen.
One of the more interesting sneaker moments in the docu-series appeared during the second episode when MJ broke his foot during the 1985-86 season and ended up missing 64 games. Jordan was captured rocking a mysterious Nike silhouette while recovering from his foot injury. Thanks to MJo23Dan, the sneaker in question has been identified as the Nike Air Enterprise. According to the vintage ads associated with the model, it was part of a collection of tennis styles that released in '85 and has been tucked away in the archives since the initial launch.
Earlier this year, Nike and Jordan Brand re-issued another one of the most elusive models that Jordan ever wore during his early playing days with the Nike Air Ship. The shoe released alongside the Air Jordan 1 High as the "New Beginnings" pack, which featured original white and red colorways of each shoe and is currently fetching over $1,000 on the secondary market.
Episodes three and four of "The Last Dance" will premiere on ESPN this Sunday at 9 p.m. EST.
