Jun 29, 2008 | Comments 13
Following up on our [KATC Video Feature with Uncle Ralph McDaniels], we take an in depth look at the "Video Music Box 25th Anniversary Nike Air Force 1 Low. Designed by DJ Clark Kent to pay homage to the Video Music Box and to celebrate the pioneering program's 25th Anniversary, the "Video Music Box 25th Anniversary" Nike Air Force 1 Low started out first as a practical piece of footwear that DJ Clark Kent designed to allow the sneaker to be worn across several occasions from Black Tie affairs to chillin on the corner. After creating the upper of Black Leather/Black Nubuck/Black Patent upper and Silver Swoosh, DJCK sought to immortalize the Video Music Box and it's 25th Anniversary by adding several VMB/Uncle Ralph personalization hits, including:
-Video Music Box lasered on the midsole of each sneaker
-"The Box That Rocks" Video Music Box slogan in Reflecting 3M along the heel of each sneaker
-An embossed "24" on the heel tab of the right sneaker
-The original Video Music Box logo emblazoned on the heel tab of the left sneaker-A TV color bar insole with a personal message for Uncle Ralph reading "Thank You For Being The First Uncle Ralph"
Twenty Five pairs of the "Video Music Box 25th Anniversary" Nike Air Force 1 Low were created and given exclusively to Uncle Ralph to give to his closest friends and family and to those who have been instrumental in the Video Music Box's 25 year history.

Yeah cosmo, I rarely see an Air Force 1 in an attractive colorway. Seems like most of them are designed by someone who's colorblind...
TO COSMO & WRAVEN... TRUST ME WHEN I SAY.... YOU WILL SEE SOME SERIOUS FIRE HITTING THE SHELVES!!!! (OH.. AND, THE "112" PACK WILL BE IN A LOT OF STORES!!!!!!)... OH AND... AIN'T COLORBLIND!!!!! HAHAHAHA!!!!!!! LETS HAVE FUN GUYS.. ITS JUST SNEAKERS!!!!!
These are hot!!!!
i saw them at the car show in edison over the weekend...sick!
very nice saw these in person at the funkmaster flex show in jersey sat,this guy had like six pair and selling for $2000.00 ,to get shoes like that video box af1 you have to be a VIP!!!!!! they will be at the filght club soon!!!
TO CLARK!!! THE HOOD SHOULD BE ABLE TO PAY TRIBUTE TO UNLCE RALPH.. A LOT OF US ARE ALIVE TODAY BECAUSE WE RAN HOME TO CATCH THE BOX...ITS BULLSHIT TO ONLY HAVE 25 PAIR OUT THERE!!!!
Why, Mr. Kent, I feel so honored that you would respond to something I (and cosmo) wrote. Your Video Music Box AF1's are truly fire, however, the only other AF1's that had any appeal to me are the one's Bobbito blessed us with. Come to think of it, if you and Bobbito could design all 1's from here on out, that would be great! In parting, I just have one thing to say, "LET'S HAVE FUN GUYS. IT'S JUST SNEAKERS!!!!!!!!"
THESE'S KICKS ARE ON FIRE!! THEY ARE **** ON MEN & WOMEN I WAITING FOR MINE!
damn these shoes are hot. I wiss i had a pair sent to me. they look like they will never be released to the public, i know alot of people will be breaking their necks to get those.
