Tinker Hatfield is the designer of many of Nike's popular and innovative shoes, including the Jordan brand. In high school he was an all-state selection as basketball player, football player, and an All-American in track and field, leading to him being named as the athlete of the year in 1970 for high school athletes in Oregon. He then attended the University of Oregon where he ran track for coach and Nike co-founder Bill Bowerman, and at one time had the pole vault record at the school. Academically, he studied architecture and graduated from the University of Oregon school of Architecture (http://www.ask.com/wiki/Tinker_Hatfield)
Some of his designs include Air Jordan III through Air Jordan XV, the twentieth anniversary Air Jordan XX, the final numbered Air Jordan, the XXIII, the 2010 (XXV) and other athletic sneakers.
Air Jordan XII

These shoes are designed with Jordan's logo on the tongue of the shoe and a red colored spot on the outside of the shoe. This shoe also contains Jordan's basketball jersey number, 23, on the heel of the shoe, on a black stripe going all the way up the back of the shoe. The verticals lines with the threads seem to bring a nice appeal to the shoe.
Air Jordan X

This shoe is not designed the same as Jordan XII, but was released earlier than the Air Jordan XII. This shoe does not have a Jordan logo on the tongue of the shoe, but instead, there is a large Jordan logo on the back of the shoe, adding an appeal to it. The designed of the shoe is rather plain, but the those still becomes attractive to the eye. The material they used to design the upper half was a good choice, the color scheme of the shoe makes a good match, red bottom and top, intermediate from top and bottom is black, and right in the middle is white.
