With all the hu-ha of the AF1 25th anniversary, seems like Nike has gone all out with their releases. Following the release of the 'Annacondas', Nike has thrown this into the mix. Should be a really expensive year for AF1 die-hards.
Better late than never, a few of these packs made it to Australia. Kickz101 managed to score some pairs - which may still be available at the time of this post.
If you love your AF1's, you should know all about this already. But if you didn't below (after the pic) is the official press release from Nike...
PRESS RELEASE
Nike celebrates 25 years of Force and pays ultimate tribute to the Air Force 1 and the Air Force 25 with the Force GOLD Legacy Pack...
The pursuit of exellence that began in 1982 has led Nike into the promised land of basketball supremacy and created a tradition unlike any other in sports. The birth of Air Force 1 signaled a new era of basketball footwear innovation and, more than two decades later, the arrival of Air Force 25 promises to do the same.
To show love to this legacy Nike has created the Force Gold Legacy Pack, an exclusive, limited, and perfect representation of the incredible impact Force has had on the game for the past 25 years.
Included in the Force Gold Legacy Pack is a special Air Force 1 Hi showcasing the Original Six: Moses Malone, Michael Cooper, Calvin Natt, Jamaal Wilkes, Bobby Jones, and Mychal Thompson; the six players who first repped the AF1 in 1982. Along with this exclusive AF1 is a special edition Air Force 25 displaying the New Six. Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Amare Stoudemire, Rasheed Wallace, Vince Carter, and Steve Nash make up the new legacy of Force dominance.
Each pair of Force shoes features fine craftsmanship and detail, including an 18-karat gold-plated polished metal deubré, fine cashmere leather lining, and specially lasered tongue top and back-tabs. Dipped in beautiful white and gold the colorway of the Legacy AF1 and AF25 pays tribute to the extravagant style and glamour of Las Vegas.
In addition to the Original Six Air Force 1 and the New Six Air Force 25, also in the pack are a special Air Force 1 belt buckle and belt designed by the legendary creator of the AF1 itself, Bruce Kilgore, and an Air Force 25 buckle and belt designed by AF25 designer, Tracy Teague. Custom cedar shoetrees, velvet shoe bags, and a commemorative box design complete the Force Gold Legacy Pack.
The Force GOLD Legacy Pack was launched as part of the basketball festivities that took place in Las Vegas this past weekend.
