Nike Air Force 1 Low Daiske Matsuzaka
After pics surfaced on the Net a while ago, the "Daiske" Nike Air Force 1 from Nike's "Global Influencer" Pack has begun to hit retail in the Far East. The "Global Influencer" Pack features several Nike Air Force 1s inspired by key figures from across the globe including Yi JianLian, Rasheed Wallace, ?uestlove, Busy P, and more. Each of the AF1s within the pack are scheduled to be exclusive to their region, i.e., Daiske/Yi exclusive to the Far East, Sheed/?uest to the US, and Busy P to Europe (but as always things can change and with the internet and consignment shops, regional exclusivity doesn't really exist anymore anyway).
Vintage Nike Vandal Pack
Introduced 2 years after the classic Nike Air Force 1, the Vandal has since become a favorite for those looking for an alternative to the now seldom releases Nike Air Force 1 High. It's durable Canvas upper allows the silhouette to be worn long after the lifespan of an Air Force 1 as well as the creasing and normal wear and tear, take much longer to appear.
Continuing their Vintage series of classic silhouettes, Nike is set to release a trio of Vintage'd Vandal Highs. The three colors set to release include the classic Gree/Yellow, Navy/Yellow, and the White/Red/Blue. All three Vandals feature slight yellowing on the sole, a pre worn upper, and the original upper shape/construction.
The Vintage Nike Vandal Pack is available now overseas and should be making it's way to the US soon.
