Best of Livestrong x Nike Shoes
Posted by Matt Halfhill | Jul 14, 2009 Lance Armstrong and Nike have a long relationship, but the two stood together starting in 2004 with the launch of Livestrong to raise money and awareness to battle cancer. Wristbands and apparel was released to support the cause to “Wear Yellow”, but since there have been a number of great shoes bearing the Livestrong name.
To salute our local hometown hero we have composed a look at the best of Livestrong x Nike shoes. Click here to have view the feature. |
Lance Armstrong x Futura x Nike FC
In 2005, Nike and Lance started 10//2 which was a performance line of apparel and cycling gear. This shoe did not have any call out to the Livestrong name on the shoes, but did feature the 10//2 label. Artist Futura, Nike’s Mark Smith, and Lance Armstrong worked together for the graphics on the side of the shoe that represented a number of things important to Lance’s life and story of overcoming cancer.
This Nike FC was produced to the tune of only 500 and was released in July of 2005 at colette in Paris.

A yo JZEUS saw your picture and those VICK’s are really what’s happening I’ve been searching for any a pair that I can get my hands on but no luck if you have a connect then hit me on email

FLOM’s definitely should’ve been #1.
1 & 2 is somewhat a toss up though, I personally like the Dunks better though.

^ I do remember those, but this post is highlighting the best of the Livestrong x Nike series. If we included all, there are probably 30 or 40.
Jul 14, 2009 at 3:24 pm
you’re missing some.
there was a livestrong R4 that was released back in 04 along with some others that were only available at finishline.
Jul 14, 2009 at 3:21 pm
tTHE FORCES ARE DOPE BUT LETS BE HONEST… I THINK THE SHOE GAME WILL BE FINE IF NIKE DISCONTINUED THE AF1 AND BROUGHT THEM BACK RETRO IN ABOUT 5-10 YEARS. IT WOULD BE MORE EXCITING TO SEE RETRO COLORWAYS, YA KNOW. ADD SOME FUN TO THE SHOE GAME. BUT
THE DUNK HIGHS WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
