Sneaker culture is an environment that welcomes all and allows its participants to express the creativity to its fullest extent. In our latest HYPEFEET weekly series, we’ll collect and showcase some of the best Instagram images that display your favorite silhouettes of the past, present, and future.

Since his debut with the Chicago Bulls back in the ’80s, Michael Jordan made sure he left his mark not only on the game of basketball but on the footwear industry as well.
