Nike's 'Air Jordan 1' shoes are a classic design that have not changed too much and the high-top sneakers now have an Olympic-themed design.
Many companies are jumping on the Olympics bandwagon -- particularly sports companies -- as people become increasingly patriotic and excited for what is soon to come in the sports world. Unlike other Olympic-themed shoes, these high-top sneakers showcase patriotism in a more subtle way. The shoes are almost completely white and blue, however the Nike 'Air' logo that sits on the tongue of the shoes come in red. The classic Nike swoosh is what solidifies the Olympic theme of these sneakers, as it comes in a vibrant gold.
As countries and people who follow sports are eager for the Olympic games this summer, companies such as Nike continue to reinvent designs to reinforce that excitement.
