Air Force Friday
Posted by Greg Grovey | Sep 18, 2009
Today’s Air Force Friday is like none other before it. Why, you might ask? This particular one is different because it was chosen by Nathan Crawford, a Nice Kicks reader and Air Force One lover; this is his story. Nathan Crawford is a reader from North Kingstown, Rhode Island. His favorite Air Force One is the Premium London Edition. Nathan first fell in love with the shoe while flipping through an issue of a basketball magazine that featured an article on Deron Williams. In one of the pictures, Deron was wearing the Premium London Forces, and he felt that he automatically had to have them seeing that Deron Williams is his favorite point guard. As soon as Nathan put the magazine down, he immediately hopped on eBay in order to find them. After searching for some time, he found them for a price to steep for him at the time: $165. However, he had to have them, so he broke down and bought them. Since then, he has only rocked them once. If you want your Air Force Friday story on the site, you have to do three simple things. First, become a Nice Kicks friend on Facebook. Secondly, become a member of the Nice Kicks group on Facebook and thirdly, send your story along with a picture of you with the shoes to info@nicekicks.com and title the subject Air Force Friday.

I dont understand why people feel the need to hate on another persons taste. If its not your “thang” cool but is it really necessary to spew venomous comments. I fear the direction this species is going. In any case, they are not my style but hey, do you buddy.

Ya, not my thing, but glad he got what he wanted.

IT’S LIKE HATING IS SECOND NATURE FOR SOME PEOPLE. AN OPINION IS ONE THING, GOING OUT OF YOUR WAY (YES, TAKING TIME TO TYPE VENOM IS OUT OF YOUR WAY) TO INSULT SOMEONE, SAYING SOMETHING YOU PROBABLY WOULD NEVER SAY TO THEIR FACE IS ANOTHER. VERY, VERY WACK.

If he’s from Rhode Island, tell him to look around more. I work at Expressions and we had these for $50 on the sales table for ever. Anyways, nice to see he got his sneakers.

horrid colors on a horrid shoe. AF1 looks like a hospital shoe = garbage, especially in this color.
