This year, many will travel to Phoenix, Arizona to take part in the 2009 NBA All-Star festivities. Besides watching basketball at its finest, the NBA All-Star Game is also a venue where exclusive sneakers make their debut. Although we have seen a couple of All-Star PEs already, one should be on the look out for this Nike Air Force 1 “2009 All-Star”.
Carefully created and designed by none other than DJ Clark Kent himself, this sneaker screams Phoenix. From Arizona’s landscape to the Phoenix Suns’ colorway, there are many inspirations and details that coincide with the home of 2009’s NBA All-Star Game.
The multi-textured upper features a predominately desert-tan nubuck upper inspired by the sandy desert of Arizona. The desert-tan toe box and side panels also feature a micro-perf texture. Continuing with the Arizona theme, the rest of the sneaker contains the Phoenix Suns colorway in the form of a purple patent leather heel and a full grain yellow leather swoosh. Also colored in the latter color mentioned is the piping bordering the side panels and the Nike logo tag found on the tongue. To finish Nike Air Force 1 “2009 All-Star” off, DJ Clark Kent added an orange leather-wrapped midsole and a gum bottom.
In addition, this sneaker comes with three sets of laces including the 3M Starks laces seen in the photo above. Look for the 2009 All Star Air Force Ones to jump off in mid February.?? Knowing Clark, these won’t release in a very orthodox manner.?? Stay tuned for more details and updates.?? More photos after the jump from Marquee Sole.
