Air Force One, best sneakers?

Well I can't exactly deny that statement. Nike has been known for making the best products in the sneakers industry. In fact, this special sneaker has made history by being the first product to use the companie's technology. To prove the value of such magnificent sneakers, it represents the Air Force One plane, which carried the presidents of the U.S. {Obama must feel very lucky to learn how valuable his plane turned out to be}. I may not have an obssession with sneakers, but I do know which shoes are the best.

The purpose of the Air Force 1 sneaker was to give Basketball stars, such as Kobe Bryant & Shaquille O' Neal, the speed to run the court & the balance especially when soaked with sweat. Ironically, I was just speaking about the NBA in an earlier blog. But another interesting fact is that these shoes have been favored for hip-hop artists. Such Rappers included Nelly & The St. Lunatics, who have collaborated on a 2002 single entitled "Air Force Ones" about the shoes.

Of course, such shoes is mostly favored for street play as well as for professional play. Other NBA talent Rasheed Wallace and Jerry Stackhouse have used the AF1s for all their games since. I tell you, if Cypress Bay used these shoes for their games, they would definetly have the edge & win the Basketball finals.

Two years ago, for the 25th anniversary of the original Air Force 1, Nike created the Air Force XXV, which got its inspiration from original Air Force 1. A commercial for the Air Force XXV included Lebron James, Steve Nash, Shawn Marion, Tony Parker, Jermaine O' Neak, Anar'e Stoudemire, Chris Paul, and Paul Pierce, featuring the music of Juelz Santana {the Second Coming}. Since its intro, many different Air Force 1s have been designed or inspired by celebrities and atheletes. This list includes Keelan Miller, Jay-Z, LeBron James, Rasheed Wallace,Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Chris Paul, and numerous others.

Now there's really no need to brag about the shoes because each design is unique in its own way. Nike shoes were made for street games & basketball. Had Nike not invented these shoes, Basketball wouldn't be as intense as it is today. Basketball is all about speed & these shoes were made to do so. So the next time your team has a basketball game, I highly recommend the Air Force 1. But remember, these shoes are merely tools to give you the edge. It's the player who uses these sneakers for the right occassion. Heed my advice & you won't regret.
