“Pilgrim” Bobbito Garcia x Nike Air Force Ones
Posted by Matt Halfhill | May 25, 2007
| We just posted a sneaker peak but I think Bobbito and his Air Force Ones are well deserving of two articles, don’t you think?
We were lucky enough to again get a few words from the man himself considering his busy schedule. For those of you who don’t know much about Bobbito, he has enough jobs to make the unemployment rate of NYC go to zero if he handed out just a couple of his gigs. Matt - Nice Kicks: I noticed something different on the swoosh this time. Bobbito Garcia: Yes, that is patent [leather] on the swoosh. Matt: What was the inspiration for the colors? Bobbito: Inspiration came from a basketball uniform that I rocked one day. The Almighty Force leage shirt was army green and my Bounce Magazine shorts were the light blue. Matt: I also noticed a forth material on the upper too. Bobbito: Yeah, I added the suede to the shoe too. I’ve never seen a sneaker come up in these flavors. I wanted to do something unique that still made sense. Again, these are scheduled to be out in Mid June in the middle of all of the NYC City Series Air Force Ones. No better time for Bobbito’s kicks to drop than while Nike is paying respect to the City. |
