Sneak Of Da Week: Limited Edition Air Questo AF1s

I know that everyone has heard about these new Nikes that have come out, created by ?uestlove from the Roots. And I, for one, was wondering what was all the hoopla about. Why were the kids lining up around the corner and camping out waiting for these shoes to hit the market? The Nike Air Questo first released in NY on Aug 1st. The Gold Edition is the limited colorway, and 12 lucky people in each city will get the Golden Tickets. All the sneakers will be sealed, so it won’t be any funny business at the releases. The ticket price for this shoe is $175. The shoe also comes emblazoned with a silohuette of ?uestlove on the tongue and the back of the shoe. I love the fact that ?uestlove decided to do a sneak instead of a clothing line like everyone else.

I must admit that I'm not a fan of the colors, but it is it's own shoe. ?uestlove is doing this as a part of the Nike’s 1WORld series that sees Air Force 1’s “created in partnership with global innovators in the fields of sport, music, art & design.”
