NIKE COURT AIR TECH CHALLENGE II

The vision of Nike design legend Tinker Hatfield, the statement shoe celebrates the biggest annual tournament in American tennis and honors the brash Nike shoe that debuted in 1990 on the feet of another legend, Andre Agassi. Hatfield’s new design fuses the shoe’s retro profile with fresh influences. Clean white lines reference the painted lines of a tennis court while red, white and blue U.S. flag-inspired hues—with a USA logo on the back and a Nike Court logo on the enamel and metal dubre—underscore the iconic shoe’s link to one of American sport's biggest moments.

The Nike Court Collection and Nike Tennis Classic by Fragment and The Nike Court Air Tech Challenge II debut on Aug. 21, 2014 at Niketown NY, NikeLab locations around the world and on nike.com/nikelab.

Nike doesn't want americans to have these shoes.  It's pretty obvious.  What isn't obvious is why.

And Europeans don't want shoes with USA on the back.

11am for these like all Nikelab releases?

Even if they did want them I'm pretty sure all the thirsty Americans will have them in their cart already.

Took me a while to figure out what these reminded me of...

Ah ha.

So it will be release online thru NDC nikelab?

Oooo yeah.  Good attempt... poor execution, IMO.

I really like the gold USA.... best part of the shoe to me...

 

[kb24strikesagain]

I love the back. It's better than the heel being plain like on the Wimbledon 2's. It kind of adds a Davis Cup feel to it. Agassi always played great in those tournaments as well.

Maybe it will grow on me. It's not a deal breaker. I still want them. Love the blocking. [emoji]128077[/emoji]

 

[endeesee]

line already starting at 21m

 

[theshoewizard]

So just as suspected, 21m (nikelab) and NTNY and nowhere else for the US.

They will be online as well.

 

[theshoewizard]

Yes Nikelab.

A lot of people always say I don't like these, these are the worst GS , the design's awful, looks cheap, etc etc. They said that about the FOs. And then when they copped, they'll be like, "oh the pictures don't do them justice" or "the quality looks infinitely better than advertised"

They look awesome! Even if they're arguably not, as a fan, I'd still cop and rock them!

I said it and hold me too it

... they couldve switched up the color blocking at least 

 

[kb24strikesagain]

Color blocking is on point.
