Question: Assalam aleykum
Is it permitted to wear Jordan brand shoes? They have a silhouette of Michael Jordan.
Answer: assalamu alaykum
There is no problem with wearing Jordan brand shoes.
You should know that a silhouette does not fall within prohibited picture making as it is a mere outline of a human without any defined features.
