His Royal Airness
On Friday 20th October, Niketown London laid out the red carpet for the living legend Michael Jordan and God-like shoe designer Mr Tinker Hatfield (who we visited earlier this year at Nike’s Innovation Kitchen in Oregon). 100 special invited fans, including myself (Darren), Jules and Guy F witnessed MJ and Tinker chat about Jordan’s career, shoe design and what the future held for the Jordan brand. As soon as the chat was finished it was a race to the basketball section to try and buy the very limited Jordan V grapes and, if you were really lucky, the black and blues. (Rumour had it only 30 pairs came in.) It was like they were giving away free money – chaos. But I’m very happy to say we won the race and copped the shoes. Nice.
