Nike Trainer 1 – Chien-Ming Wang PE

Nike Trainer 1   Chien Ming Wang PE   Detailed Images

Chien-Ming Wang might be the Yankees’ ‘Jared Jeffries‘, but both mediocre stat-guys are getting dope NY-themed PEs.It’s good to be a Yankee. Coming of the franchise’s 27th World Series championships, Nike has already dedicated a Trainer 1 to the legacy of the team, which we saw in detail here.

That wasn’t enough for Chien-Ming Wang though, as the Taiwanese pitcher has received his own PE different from the team’s.Wang is capitalizing on the Yanks’ twenty-seventh World Series championship with another Nike PE.  These split the difference between Wang’s Air Max 1 PE and the recent NYY Trainer 1: it’s a Trainer 1 in the Yankee palette  (notice how the Flywire strands perfectly match the pinstripes on the rear quarter) that prominently features his logo, a ‘King’ character that looks like a literally-fireball-throwing pitcher whirling toward home.

Stick with Sneaker News for updates on their release.Unlike the team PE, these feature a white and silver upper, with pinstripes on the heel panel. The forefoot lace loops use non-Yankee colors, appearing in royal blue, yellow and red. On the heel panel, where the Trainer 1 usually reads “Nike,” and the Yankee PE displayed “New York,” a Taiwanese character has been created out of a mid-pitch silhouette of Wang.

Nike Air Force 1 Black/Sport Red Patent

Nike Air Force 1 Black Patent

The selection of Air Force 1’s have been heating up as we progress through the warm Summer day’s. Earlier today we announced the release of the Air Force 1 “World Basketball Festival” which may be a bit of a hassle for some of you to get your hands on due to it’s limited availability. No worries though, there’s plenty of other prime suspects out there looking to claim your hard earned cash, such as this dope Black/Sport Red AF1 Low which is arriving at retailers as we speak. The Nike Air Force 1 has seen its fair share of colorways and texture makeups this year.

The latest pair to surface at select shops comes in the form of this Nike Air Force 1 Black/Black/White-Sport Red. A unique black textured leather is spotted throughout the heel and the side panels, while black patent leather is used for the toe area and along the midfoot. To coincide with the latter sections, a black patent leather swoosh offsets the aforementioned textured leather.Mixing it up between patent leather and what looks to be some sort of textured leather, this mostly black Air Force 1’s stands out with a pinch of Sport Red on the tongue tag and the AIR and pinstripe stamp on the mid-sole. It’s the simple colorways like this which have reminded us time after time why the Air Force 1 has remained a icon in the Nike catalog for almost 3 decades.

Lastly, sport red branding is seen on the tongue and midsole. The Nike Air Force 1 Black/Sport Red Patent is now available at select Nike Sportswear retailers including Nice Kicks in Austin.
