Pk's Sneaker of the week is.... * DRUM ROLL PLEASE*
The Retro Nike Air Raid
The Air Raid was designed by Tinker Hatfield. The Double strap system looked as if it was just for looks but it actually kept the foot very secure for basketball . The release of this sneaker coincided with Spike lee's Movie "Malcolm X" , the shoes X look lead many people to associate the two. The Air raid was first released in 1992 it was initially called the Air Jack before it hit the production line. The sneaker was re-released in 2003 and again in 2008, the sneaker in the picture can be purchased at select Nike accounts and at your local DTLR.
" I fucked with the shoe because my uncle had them back in 1993 when i was growing up and i remember him getting two pairs and busting the other pair out in late 1999 ill never forget because he let me rock them to school i ended up just balling in them and fucking them up i wish i knew what had, the color way is crazy ill, the straps the sole everything about this shoe speaks to me . the sneakers bulky white sole is impossible to not look at especially on the black sneaker my bond with this shoe is like an unknown language its really something i think only i can understand..." - Pk
