Sneaker News: Nike To Release ‘Silver Surfer’ Foamposites
One of Nike‘s most iconic basketball sneakers is getting a chrome carbon fiber makeover and the shoe is dropping soon.
The footwear brand’s Air Foamposite Pro model, which was originally issued in 1997, will be released Friday (March 17) in a “Silver Surfer” colorway. The look is also being called “Silver Age” and features a metallic Foamposite upper with a carbon fiber-like texture that matches the shoe’s mid-foot support shank.
Black accents fill in the eyelets, tongue and heel, while a smoky translucent rubber outsole finishes off the retro look. From a performance standpoint, the shoes feature responsive Zoom Air cushioning in the forefoot and heel, which means they’ll be able to hold their own on a basketball court.
The Air Foamposite Pro “Silver Surfer” retails for $250 and will launch on nike.com and select Nike Sportswear retailers.
