Air today - Jordan marks 30 years in business
Former professional US basketball player Michael Jordan
Paris - AFP
Basketball legend Michael Jordan on Friday celebrated 30 years of his "Air Jordan I", the first sports shoes created for him by Nike and which eventually became a global fashion statement.
"We did some good things 30 years ago," said Jordan to his entourage in Paris, although none of the 50-strong press corps who attended the event at the city's Palais de Tokyo were allowed to pose questions to the star.
Jordan has been retired from the sport since 2003 after winning six NBA titles with the Chicago Bulls.
Now 52, he is the richest retired sportsman in the world with an estimated fortune of $100 million.

Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris.
