 A couple of simple pairs of the classic runner have hit retailers including Titolo. Both pairs are a tri-color offering with white as a base mixed in with navy/red, and the other being black/blue. 

On December 19th, Nike Sportswear will be offering up a chance to win 1 of 4 pairs of these “Always On” Air Force 1 Bespokes.

“The padding and lining have been removed and the shoe itself has been pared back to reveal a minimalist construction that has more in common with dress shoes than Rucker Park. The laces are hand-rolled and stitched. The leather-wrapped midsole is both lighter and softer than a standard Air Force. The sockliner is premium leather with full-length memory foam. The hang tags are also leather, with personalised laser etching all part of the package. All in all, it’s a radical and classy upmarket overhaul of the Uptown, Nike’s bona fide NYC sneaker franchise. And if that’s not enough, the first 30 customers through the Mercer Street doors will receive their Bespokes inside a wooden box made from reclaimed fir, complete with laser etching and a custom seal.”

Featured in Nike Sportswear’s Holiday 2011 Collection are two LeBron James footwear styles. The black leather Air Force 1 Premium Low QS is the first AF1 low to feature the rugged traction characteristic of a duck boot, with a winterized feel fit for the harsh weather.
The Nike Air Max Conquer QS is a versatile boot made for the winter with a high cut, rugged traction pattern, waterproof overlays and a heel viz 180 Nike Air unit. A new NSW LeBron logo on the tongue top and sockliner finish the boot off and tie directly to a matching range of Nike Sportswear apparel. Both styles debut at select global retailers this November.

The unveiling and subsequent auction of the Nike MAG was by and large the biggest sneaker event of the year, if not the decade. Working with The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research, Nike sold 1500 pairs of the sneaker over a 10 day period, raising a total of $5,695,190.53 USD. Much respect to all who participated.
UPDATE: If you recall, Sergey Brin, co-founder of Google, will be matching this number, so in the end over $11,390,381.10 USD will go to charity as a result of this initiative.

Nike Air Force 1 Vac Tech ($135) Besides their monochromatic stylings, the Vac Techs stand out from the crowd with a unibody seamless upper and a translucent sole. Oh, and good luck keeping them clean.
