Nike Air Force 180 - Dark Obsidian/Varsity Red-White
Posted by George Kiel III | Nov 18, 2008 An exclusive colorway of the classic Nike Air Force 180 has surfaced over at Grip Footwear.
The most favorable feature on these kicks is the quality of the 100% authentic grain leather. This cushy, thick grain leather covers most of the upper with the exception of a few red and white accents on the shoelaces, lace holders, and midsole. They also possess a clear sole that covers the Air unit. The strap is imprinted with the ‘FORCE’ logo, while the ‘180 AIR’ logo is visible on the tongue. If you recall, Charles Barkley made these popular by wearing them during the 1992 Olympics in a red, white, and blue colorway. More detailed pics after the jump. |
