?uestlove x Nike 1World Air Force 1, Gold Toe and Air Max 90 Custom
I'm not usually a big fan of the crazy bright colors and obnoxious combinations but for some reason I am feelin' these Air Force One's that ?uestlove of the Roots customized.
?uestlove was not only cool enough to attend the event but also buy the first 5 pairs of shoes for people that waited 4(!!!) days for these to drop. That's crazy! The golden toe version that you see above was actually a "Golden Ticket" like deal where if you received those in the box you ended up getting both colorways as well as a backstage pass to one of his concerts. That's a pretty sick deal and payoff considering how long you had to wait in line and how much these will be worth in resale value. Definitely a cool move by ?uest and Nike.
The shoe features a bunch of crazy colors and materials with burgundy leather, red canvas and neon green elephant print. It has red shoelaces, a lasered silhouette of ?uestlove, and a golden Nike swoosh. It sounds messed up on paper but as you can see, it just works somehow. Dope.
The ?uestlove x Nike 1World Air Force 1 was sold exclusively at Alife Rivington Club on August 1st and retail price was $250 (DAMN!).
Sneaker customizer MACHE decided to take this design one step further and place it on the Air Max 90's and the results were almost dead on. I like both the Air Force 1 and Air Max 90 in this crazy colorway. If you bought one you might as well have the other but good luck getting either!
