His âAirnessâ Michael Jordan looks as great off the court as he once did dunking on his opponents while flying high above it, seemingly defying the laws of gravity. At the beginning of his career, the man who would go on to become the GOAT of the NBA wore preppy staples such as rugby shirts with hip-hop flourishes such as fly gold chains. But itâs his power suits, especially from the mid-1990s onwards, that cemented the manâs stature in the style icon stakes. By that time he was both literally and metaphorically a giant amongst men, but those imposing suits with their drop shoulders and loose, billowing trousers made him seem even larger, god-like even.
