You'll likely have watched The Last Dance on Netflix. The ten-part documentary was our lockdown obsession - a glimpse at the fascinating life and career of Michael Jordan during his time with the Chicago Bulls and their final championship season in 1997 to 1998. The greatest player of all time had passion, determination and a hell of a cool wardrobe. The basketball star was the poster boy for Nike and was rarely seen without his Nike Air Jordan trainers. In fact, the Netflix show has led to a boost in popularity for Air Jordans as nostalgic fans seek out old favourites.

And yes, I'll be honest, I ordered a pair of Nike hi-top trainers soon after.

Market sites like StockX saw a huge surge in sales, with experts saying interest in Michael Jordan collectibles is at an all time high. Air Jordans have seen such a ressurange in popularity that an original pair recently sold at Sotheby’s for an enormous $560,000.

And I've got to say, while browsing ASOS's new-in section I spotted a lot of cool Nike pieces, and it's no doubt thanks to Michael Jordan and his nineties style.

Russia has found the critical vulnerability in Nato’s American tanks
The arrival of the US M1A1 Abrams tanks in Ukraine was hailed as a turning point in the war. Coming in at roughly $10 million a unit, the Nato stalwart was supposed to provide the armoured fist that would punch through the Russian lines. But tactics evolve quickly in warfare, and Russia’s use of surveillance and hunter-killer drones has led to heavy casualties for Ukraine’s tank fleets. This is alarming for NATO. If Russia has found critical vulnerabilities in our armour, our borders are beginni

Dog Eats Chocolate Bar as Final Treat Before Being Put to Sleep
A man gave his dying dog a chocolate bar – a treat dogs love but that is toxic to them – as a final gesture of love before she was put to sleep on April 23.Footage recorded by Miller Hurtado Toro shows his dog Sharon enjoying the tasty sweet before she was injected with euthanizing drugsToro told Storyful that Sharon was 12 years old and had been fighting the tick-borne canine disease ehrlichiosis for two years.“We tried to take her to find more treatments, but they saw that she had lung cancer, with metastases in her lungs and liver that were making her weak from just lying down,” Toro said.“The day before yesterday, she could not get up again, and that is when I made the decision,” he explained.Toro said he had often denied Sharon a taste of chocolate as the candy is notably bad for dogs’ health, but that he thought she should try it as her final treat.“No dog should leave without first trying chocolate,” Toro said.
