Michael Jordan’s first appearance on David Letterman was the stuff of legend way before Jordan Brand decided to release a sneaker that referenced the moment. It featured a young MJ that was still far from the polished pitchman that always said the right thing and never offended anybody, even Republicans. I mean, he actually agreed with Letterman and said that his signature Air Jordans were “ugly”. Future MJ would have shrugged that off and had a brilliant – but also vanilla – retort for Letterman that would have had the audience laughing. There’s also no way in hell Prime MJ allows himself to be out there in front of a nationwide audience wearing that jumpsuit that looks like something out of Eddie Murphy’s Delirious closet. And if there was a word to describe that moment in time, it would be another Eddie Murphy classic, Raw. That show had a raw MJ that wasn’t quite there yet, but was well on his way.

Enjoy this early look at the Air Jordan 1 David Letterman (what are the odds Jordan Brand changes the nickname to something like “Late Night” or “On Air” to prevent Worldwide Pants from coming down on them?) in beautiful 4K quality.
