Nike Celebrates 25 Years of the Air Force 1 at Gotham Hall

Okay, so we were a bit hesitant to post these videos cuz we’ve been trying to stick to our regular format but since I haven’t seen any video on the event yet and it was such a hyped up celebration, here goes! The event went down last night, December 10th at Gotham Hall in New York City. Live performances by Nas, Rakim, Kanye West and KRS-1.

The 150 VIP guests of Nike stayed at the London Hotel on 54th Street and received loads of goodies in each of their rooms. Swag included a fresh pair of white on white AF1’s in an impressive white lacquered wooden shoebox, a pair of Nike AF1 branded shoe trees, an iPod Nano filled with images of the top 100 versions of the Air Force 1 and a “One Night Only” 14 song playlist, a pair of Tiffany’s Sterling Silver AF1 sneaker jewels, a box of hand engraved notecards by Mrs. John L. Strong, a copy of Sole Provider, a Diptyque candle, 3 bottles of SEI water, a variety of Altoids chewing gum, a box of Mallomars

Enjoy!

These ladies were in charge of getting everyone’s votes on the touch screen. Stash’s AF1 was the winner of the all time favorite and will be rereleased as a special edition for all those VIP invitees.
