While MJ might be scooping up the dividends, it is her daughter who is doing all the hard work. She is keeping things in check and ensuring that the company is headed in the right direction.
And as someone with a name that holds enormous gravitas in the sneaker industry, it was only fitting that she be the one who represented Air Jordan at the “Shoe Oscars”.

What is Jasmine’s role at the Jordan Brand?
Jasmine’s job as mentioned earlier is to scout and find the next generation of athletes and role models that will represent the brand.
A tough task. Michael Jordan’s repertoire can never be trumped, but Jasmine plans to steer the brand into a new age. One where representation for women was at the forefront.
As the face of Air Jordans for the Shoe Oscars, it is clear the brand also embraces the shift in imagery. Only time will tell where this avenue will lead to.
