Black History Month Air Force Ones
| Nike has had a continued commitment to honoring Black History and Black History Month. Using sneakers to tell stories, Nike has spread the words about legends such as the Black Fives, Tuskegee Airmen, and Negro Baseball League.This year Nike constructed Black History Month Air Force Ones that were released at special events in NY and LA. The shoes have such incredible details such and touches that represent African American history and culture.
The canvas on the rear panel was chosen and treated to represent mud cloth that is unique to each pair. The shoes also have special wooden lace debays engraved with BMH 08 as well as wooden lace tips. Inspirational words from Dr. Carter G. Woodson can be found on the insole and special packaging. Though not released directly to the public, we have found a pair of sz 11.5 currently on eBay. |

just like MJ screwed carolina with the Tight 23′S, Niki don’t care , as long as you spend….read the box! Minimizing present achievement.

Under,
I don’t agree with that statement at all. These were given away and auctioned with money going to charity. Whether you buy these second hand or not, Nike doesn’t care - they don’t do these things for the money.
smh

These are the kind of shoes that are a collectors item. I love the color. I love what they said on the inside of the shoe. This is definitely history.
