West Indies Air Force Ones 2006
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Jul 17, 2006| The West Indies for 2005 were a let down for me personally. They were the first black based shoe and were more of a Jamaica inspired colorway than for the West Indies. My Grenadian friends and I felt pretty left out.
This year, Nike is going to make Jamaica Air Force Ones AND West Indies Air Force Ones. These West Indies Air Force Ones are the traditional colors of the shoe - White, Green, Red, and Golden Yellow. These kicks received alot of inspiration from the Puerto Rico Air Force Ones from this year replacing the stitched logo on the back quarter panel with a large painted logo instead. These are a must have for anyone from the West Indies or for anyone who wants some hot shoes. We will update you with the info on release dates asap. |

im very pissed off because guyana is not even writen on the sole of the sole with all the other countries
Jul 17, 2006 at 9:22 pm
yo joseph, im am guyanese but son, guyana is NOT part of the WEST INDIES. we are “verbally” mentioned as a country that is represesnted by the West Indies. cricket is wat made guyana part of the west indies. but these are hot.

I hear you on that. But, Guyana is more of a West Indies nation than cricket - the culture and history ties it close with the rest of the West Indies.
When I was in school in Grenada, Belieze was always on the list too yet they are not on the shoe. Belieze was also on the list mainly due to all being an english speaking, British colony. After each recieved their independance, Guyana and Belieze are major trading partners with the rest of the West Indies, thus forming CARICOM.

Jul 19, 2006 at 7:36 pm
Guyana and Belize should be on there 2 as said previously they are just as much part of the West Indies. We share everything except for the fact that we are on the continent. The two countries are the only 2 West Indian nations. Im a guyanese so yes we deserve to be mentioned on the sneaker not just because of cricket
Jul 19, 2006 at 10:05 pm

Jul 26, 2006 at 4:00 pm
THESE SHOES IS RAW BUT THE COLORS ARE ALL WRONG!!!
THESE COLORS ARE ETHIOPIAN COLORS WHICH IS IN AFRICA NOT WEST INDIES. IM SICK AND TIRED OF PEOPLE THINKIN THAT THATS THE ONLY COLOR THAT REPRESENT THE ISLANDS AND AFRICA!!!!
THATS THE ETHIOPIAN FLAG NOT JAMAICAN NOT WEST INDIES OR ANYTHING ELSE
PLEASE GET IT RIGHT AND MAKE A SHOE FOR THE OTHER COUNTRIES BECAUSE I KNOW THEYRE HAVIN PROBLEMS WITH THAT TOO!!!!
Jul 26, 2006 at 4:02 pm
the colors on this shoe is the ethiopian flag!!!

Jul 28, 2006 at 4:58 pm
Theses Sneaks are Fire. THe colors represent the west indies lovely. Every flag has at least on of those colors and what betta that red gold and green. And to the Comment about Africa and the west indies. I feel they should come out with Africa air force ones but there are many flags in the west indies (Grenada, St Kitts, Dominica, Guyana and if you include Suriname). So to say those are only ethiopian or african colors. West Indians should be united and those colors are a great representation. IM From Gt and those have all of the colors in my flag except for black. So west indies stand up because we have a great looking sneaker
Jul 30, 2006 at 12:41 am
hot as hell
Jul 30, 2006 at 7:34 pm
these shoes are sick in i no lot about one’s
Jul 31, 2006 at 12:12 am
Where can I get a pair?
Guyana may not be on the sole but this guyanese chick will be rockin the hard.
Furthermore, Guyana is actually located at the point where the Caribbean meets South America on it’s North Atlantic seaboard, which is historically and culturally part of the caribbean region. Therefore guyana is technically part of the caribbean, which also makes it the only Caribbean/West Indian country.
Jul 31, 2006 at 2:00 pm
yo dog them so hot even a clown will be beasting in them they made crazy son
Jul 31, 2006 at 2:08 pm

okay so guyana isn`t apart of the West Indies thats why the flag wasn`t on there but in cricket they call us guyanese West Indian so we are South American not part of West Indies
Jul 11, 2007 at 8:20 pm
WEst Indies Cricket is all good. Legends in my part of the world (New Zealand).
Aug 6, 2007 at 2:48 pm
