To all my Air Jordan fans out there, I hope you woke up early today and headed straight to your local store and get the new Air Jordan 6 Rings, which came out today. I really like the concept behind this one, it’s a mix or hybrid of some of the older Air Jordan sneakers. As usually Air Jordan’s usually cost around $150, which is not a bad price and you can get it from Finish Line

While you are over there at Finishline.com, check out the Olympic version of the Air Jordan that would cost you about $124.99, The Olympian Basketball Shoe

Danm, they look good!!

One of my favorite sneakers will always be the air force 1, we used to call them “uptowns” in NYC for the older heads reading this post, back in the 90’s. I figured why not take a quick look at the history of the Air Force 1’s which is “It’s the No. 1 seller in the history of athletic footwear,” according to an Article NYtimes wrote in 2007 about the Air Force 1.

Nike released the Air Force 1 in 1982 as a basketball shoe and it quickly became popular among the players as an endorsement shoe, but as one might know once the street dudes start rocking something it sure to take off (example Timberland boots). For the record Nelly did not make it “cool” for people to wear the air force 1 at least for us here in NY. The Air Force 1 has always been a popular sneaker in the east coast of US. Summers were always the time for a fresh white one white pair, I specifically remember the NYC edition when they first came out, I had a good 2 or 3 pairs of them and I was always buying and sending them to my cousins in Florida.

Nike Air Force 1 was named after the Air Force One plane which is the name of the US presidents plane. Now a days only NBA start that wears the Air Force 1 is Rasheed Wallace, and his model is called Sheed’s. One of the best thing about the Air Force one is that you can customize it to however color you want or desire, there are tons of sites out there that can do that for you, Google it.

for about 80 bucks you can get yourself a pair.
