Why This Matters
The original 2006 All-Star AF1 became instant grail status, worn by sneakerhead celebrities and basketball players alike. By channeling this energy into a new release nearly two decades later, Nike taps directly into sneaker nostalgia while introducing metallic star detailing to a new generation of collectors.
"This is clearly an homage - and a very good one at that. Nike knows collectors have been hunting the '06 All-Stars, and this gives them that feeling with modern materials and craftsmanship." - Mark Jackson, Sneaker News
