Over the years, Michael Jordan's eponymous label under Nike Inc. has grown into a full-fledged empire that rules the sneaker sphere. One of the main reasons for the growth of the co-owned label is the multiple collaborations that create hype among sneakerheads every year.

Collaborations usually result in the rarest and most expensive shoes in the market, which go on to earn over six figures on reseller sites such as StockX and Sotheby's.

Nike's collaboration journey kick-started in 2005 when the Californian premium sneaker boutique joined hands with the brand for a makeover of the Air Jordan 4 silhouette. Currently, each silhouette has received a collaborative makeover at least once with many well-known and famous labels.

Many relevant pop-culture artists and famous labels have collaborated with Michael Jordan's eponymous label in 2022 and in this article, we list down five of the best of them.
