Nike Basketball Olympics Retro Pack

Thursday, February 23rd, 2012

Nike Basketball Olympics Retro Pack

It’s been 20 years since the Dream Team was assembled for the Summer Olympic Games in Barcelona, recapturing the gold medal in basketball after a dismal showing in Seoul in 1988, in which the men’s team walked away with the bronze medal. The 1992 team, featuring NBA players for the first time, showcased an All-Star roster including Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing and Karl Malone. It’s rightly been referred to as the greatest team ever in the world of sport, and Nike Sportswear is celebrating their achievement with a special collection, the standout piece of which is the Dream Team Destroyer Jacket. The footwear selection, meanwhile, highlights USAB colorways from the Dream Team and beyond: Air Force 180 (Charles Barkley, 1992), Air More Uptempo (Scottie Pippen, 1996), Shox BB4 (Vince Carter, 2000) and the Huarache 2K4 (Carlos Boozer, 2004).

Nike Foamposite One “Galaxy”

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2012

A few weeks ago, the world got a glimpse of a new pair of Foamposite Ones dubbed “Galaxy”. Clearly a sample of the shoe leaked early, but now the official shoe is slated to release this Friday. Greg Grovey from the Nice Kicks flagship store goes into detail with a pair of Galaxies. Laced in an all-over constellation-like print with a glow-in-the-dark sole, and “Remove Before Flight” tag. The shoe was made to go along with this years NBA All Star game, which is held in Orlando,Florida; home to the Kennedy Space Center. The Nike store announced that they will not be carrying the shoe via online store, so good look grabbing a pair. More pics after the jump.
