New Obama Air Force Ones

Posted by Juan

One problem. They look like orthopedic kicks.

Obama One’s

A couple of months ago we profiled the artist, Van who designed and hand painted his own signature Barack Obama Nike Air Force One’s.  The kid did his damn thing.

Will.i.am

The buzz surrounding the shoes got so big that he even had Will.i.am cop a pair to wear to an award show.

Obama Biscuits

I’m thinking however that these won’t receive the same type of response.  For one the design is on the soul and if you look closely they look like orthopedic kicks.  Shout to JRei360 for the pix.

    if it were me, I would have reversed the shoe on the right. That way, the foot print reads correctly. As it stands, the footprint will read backward

  2. Juan says:

    Good point. You’re so analytical.

  3. Chevo says:

    Yea, the design is skraight azz backwards. No one will ever see Obama unless you kicking a dude in the face…!?!

    I still think it’s pretty cool. I tried looking for someone who was making McCain’s shoes. Nothing close comes up to what Van made. The closest I could get was some company called Zazzle that makes custom everything almost. It’s kinda cool. I posted the link below to see all their “political” shoes.

    I like the Hope and Obama Lace up shoes the most. It’s cool that people can get so creative.

  5. do those soles talk? come again

    That is some straight up hippie sh#t right there. Sorry, but I couldn’t be caught dead wearing that.
    I’ll stick with a T-shirt or a button.

    Ya’ll can get ya’ll Obama Air Force Ones from http://www.authenticsforall.com they’ve got a bunch of Obama Custom Air Force Ones and other shoes. So check it out for ya’ll that want to support OBAMA!!!

    they’re the AIR BRUSH shoes not the ugly ones with the soles. THey’re they painted picture of obama shoes.

  8. Tina says:

    Don’t know many who would wear the McCain shoes, except Elizabeth Hasslebitch, I mean, Hassleback. Other than that, the shoes I saw on Zazzle are cool to look at but I don’t know anyone who’d wear them.

    The Van shoes are nice but the bottom does look like for old people’s support.
