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.
Check them out at Sneaker Freaker.
