Today, Jordan shoes are among the most expensive regular-priced basketball footwear. The first time an Air Jordan model breached the $200-mark was the Air Jordan XVII, released in 2003. Almost a decade later, the Air Jordan 2012 came along and demanded a price of $223 a pair. The average price tag of Air Jordans since 2003 is around $160 to $180, a huge amount in today’s standards.
