(Now that's "sole"!)
The folks at Nike delivered an exclusive Black History Month take on the seminal Air Force 1, and it's a winner. Features included ill tweed mud cloth design on the heel and chocolate and caramel colors. Not sure how I feel about the swirl on the toe but nonetheless these joints are serious.
(shout to Allhiphop.com for puttin me on!)
Quotes from the good Dr. Carter G. Woodson are featured prominently on the box and in the inner sole of each shoe. If you are not familiar, please add The Mis-Education of the Negro to your personal library not now but right now. These treats are not available at retail, so good luck finding a pair.

Those are some fresh ass kicks!
Congratulations on the kicks; they're dope without a doubt. They remind me of something my sister and I have been working on called Shabazz clothing that has a very sixties look, taking after the excellent sartorial sense of Brother Malcolm and Dr. King.
Btw, I was gonna head up to NY next weekend and I wanted to catch your Nuyorican show on the 15th; would you mind hitting me up with the details?
Oh God tight ass kicks do they come caramel hahaha lite brown skin? just j/k
Irony?
Nike has a black history month shoe while it exploits other brown people who made the shoe...interesting.
They were kind of fresh though
