DOOOOOOOOOM!
Last month when we were kicking it about the NIKE series of Fantastic Four inspired kicks. Someone mentioned that there was also a Doctor Doom sneaker, but since I didn’t have pics to confirm its existence I decided not to talk about it. Now that the internets is leaking some pics of the shoe we can discuss it here amongst ourselves.
The shoe is a Foamposite Pro LE. The same shoe made famous by PENNY HARDAWAY several years ago. NIKE has reissued the Foamposite in several different incarnations and colorways. I have to be honest and say that I am disappointed that this shoe isn’t in a gunmetal graphite grey with a green accent on the pods on the sole. The colorway that they are describing in the advance photos relates more to Venom than to Victor Von Doom.
Ah well, such is the lament of a nerd purist. The Foamposite is still a kick azz shoe and it’s one of NIKEs more comfortable basketball shoes. The foot platform is wide and the toebox is comfy and not crowded.
The overwhelming success of this series should prompt NIKE to consider some more collabos with comic book icons. Possibly some Spiderman SB Dunks or even a pair of QuickSilver Air Max 360s. They should drop a pair of all invisible Vision AF-1s. How about a pair of…
about the only positive thing that came from that terrible fantastic 4 movie
I’ve had or have every color except those white and blacks…….true story.
I got the Dooms/Venoms, the originals & the retro black foamposites. The best thing about them is even though I wear them they stil look new.
Did the black with the gum bottoms every get released?
