Tinker Hatfield First Jordans1

Jordan Brand just launched a Twitter campaign called #WEAREJORDAN, which encourages brand loyalists to share their stories of their first-ever Jordan sneaker. Tinker Hatfield kicks things off by talking about his first – the Air Jordan 1. While Tinker’s name is now household in the sneaker community, some of his newer fans might not know that the Air Jordan 1 was not his design. That belonged to Peter Moore, and Tinker began his own journey with the Air Jordan III – the first to feature the Jumpman logo. Check out the video below to hear more from the legendary designer.
