The basketball brand, called Air Jordan, was initially created and produced exclusively for Jordan in 1984.

And the company tweeted a historic throwback to one of the most iconic moment's of his career.

It read: "On this day 20 years ago, the Boss won his 6th and final championship with a clutch jumper."

Ever since entering the NBA and signing a massive deal with Nike, the Air Jordans have been the most sought-after trainers.
