Tinker Hatfield has to be the greatest shoe designer of all time. If it wasn't for him, there would be no Nike. It's hard to say what my favorite Air Jordans Tinker designed. I know a lot of people love the 11s, which I do as well, but the 14s are special to me. Especially the candy cane ones which I have, actually the rip Hamilton ones though, but they still nice. Lol. The 12 is a nice shoe too that don't get a lot of love to me that Tinker designed. I have a pair of the alternate gym red and white.
Dude, Jordan 15 was an inspiration. It's the Pinnacle of what the future can be for me.

He remade the Jordan 15 as a movie concept, in a way he wanted.
An honest down to earth hero for the everyday sneaker geeks. My faves of the man are AJ3's and Tinker NRG especially, AJ4's in particular the SB pine green, a number of Air Trainer 1 and Air Max 90. I use all of them as much as I can.

@@ThaRealOne0 They’re still such a big hit, new releases of the same shoes resell for hundreds to thousands of dollars and made a huge impact on the shoe industry that you can’t even imagine, and considering the whole sneaker head scene exploded in popularity, this guy didn’t just design some shoes, these things were a staple that made hundreds of millions, with that type of iconic status that still set trends, and that much money, he deserves whatever he gets, you also have to think about the fact shoe people view shoes differently than the normal person that doesn’t care
The 15 is actually one of my favorites. I remember EVERYONE hating them though lol.

No, actually I’m 40. Those just the hardest ones to me. I used to work at footlocker, and I have at least one of every number. The 11, 16, and 19 all got the patent leather look I like. The 19 the best one though followed by the 11 then 16.

all those you mentioned are some of the greatest AJ designs ever but i don't like the 15 at all.i would add the AJ 1 to that list, the AJ 17 & 18 (from his wizards' yrs.) are hella underappreciated but my fav AJ of all times is Bugs Bunny 8! (1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,11,12,13,14,17 & 18)

Best? 1. 4. 11. Honorable mention? 12. 13. The tongue on the 15? Man. Tinker was wrong for that one. Lol. Straight legend though. Air Max 90? Bow down folks.
11’s are the best
I had a pair of 15s just because of that damn package
Jordan 15 are such sleepers
AJ XV for me!
This guy is my idol Jordan is cool and all but he just wore the shoe tinker made it as well as the air mags the batman boots the air max 3 aka the airmax 1 90-98 huarache etc. I probably wouldn't be at Nike if it wasn't for this guy
