NES themed shoes released by Nike


It's not every day one comes across a pair of video game inspired footwear, so when you do happen to find some, it definitely deserves some attention. This happens to be one of those days. Word is Nike has released a new version of the Nike Air Classic BW, completely decked out with the aesthetic of an all time classic, the Nintendo Entertainment System. Aside from the iconic color theme of the NES, the sneakers also feature a d-pad design, as well as the start and select buttons on the side of the shoe tongue.

I was unable to find a definitive answer as to where to procure them, other than "select retailers", and no word on pricing. But if you see them, you may want to grab them while you can. I'm willing to bet they'll sell out pretty fast.
