I just recently stumbled across the Nike Air Classic BW. It actually looks like a regular shoe, until you look closer. Using the NES controller as inspiration, traces of light grey can be found on the top half of the sneaker, dark grey on the bottom half and a red strip sandwiched in between. There’s also a solid black midsole, NES control pads wallpapered around the toe, and the word “START†placed by the ankle.
The design makes reference of everything from the control pad to the start / select buttons and looks deadly.
They’re not insanely rare, but it’s doubtful you’ll find a pair in your local sports store.
They’re not too expensive, and run around $80.00 a pop. Click here to check out the ones on eBay.
If that’s not your thing, you can always check out this NES physically inside of a sneaker.
