As you all may know, this past month was Black History Month. Nike is always coming at us with the shoes to go along with every holiday, celebration, and event. With this one, they hit us with something very new and innovative, and it will actually hit retail stores this year, unlike last years Black History Month Edition Air Force One.
The black premium leather sneaker, has a patent leather Nike swoosh, and also patent leather laser print throughout the shoe to go along with the classic Black History Month colorway of black, red, and green. The laser print throughout the upper of the sneaker is the saying, "the definition of a renaissance individual: one who possesses a multitude of skills, talent and a broad base of knowledge."
This Premium Air Force One released on February 18, retails at $150, and suprisingly there are still some left out there. As always, the proceeds from sales will be donated to Cheyney University, the oldest Black institution in the United States. The sneaker comes in a special bag. The bag reads:
"100 years came and another 100 past little did they know, nothing would forever last the land they knew stood for “liberty and justice for all” however, “we the people” didn’t include them at all words on paper held no weight it was time for judicial battle at the mahogany gate they moved left and then shifted right they fought for freedom keeping equality in sight laws were challenged and changes were made giving us the right to make the grade thanks to those who fought the fight moving the darkness and bringing light."
