Here we take a look at some photos from the Nike Hufquake pop-up shop that was put up especially for the release of the Hufquake Air Force 1’s that dropped recently. As you can see from the photos they really went all out to re-create a look and feel of a shop that had been hit by an earthquake with some really amazing results. So even if you missed out on the actual release of the kicks at least now you can still see what the shop looked like.

When the Nike Air Force One made its debut 25 years ago, the founding father designers shared the same goal as the ones behind the blueprints today: raise the standard of craftsmanship in the product. With a team highly dedicated to premium production and strict guiding principals like original designer Bruce Kilgore’s framework, the Air Force One has achieved an iconic status in the footwear industry.

As an homage to the original players who first supported the Air Force One model during their professional days, Nike will be coming out with six new kicks commemorating the true originators: Moses Malone, Jamaal Wilkes, Bobby Jones, Calvin Natt, Michael Cooper, and Mychal Thompson. Each shoe is modeled after the style of play of each person. Materials such as elephant print, perforated leather, suede, and tweed are used for some of the models. Also on the heel panel of the shoes are words that describe the type of player each one is.
