Air ?uesto’s
July 23rd, 2008
Looks like the hardest working man in hip-hop show business is about to make a splash in the sneaker world. This morning on his blog, The Roots’ ?uestlove proudly unveiled his upcoming Nike signature shoe, the Air ?uesto 1. After a year in the making, the kicks will be available in select stores on August 1st in two very, uh, how do you say, interesting colorways–one of which will be a limited release:
25 lucky people across the US will open their boxes to receive a “golden ticket”—and unlike mr wonka i aint talkin a piece of paper.
the shoes will be golden (the one on top)—them shits are the ones to kill for.
i cant make the “official” announcement on what you will get if you are the lucky ones but lemme just say im gonna stand in line for my own damn shoe.
Best of all, ?uest will be dj’ing in several stores to promote the shoe’s release:
aug1- i’ll be at ALIFE in NYC
aug5- i’ll be at UBIQ in philly
aug 7th I’ll be at Undefeated in LA
Now, my question to you guys: Would you pick these up, or pass ‘em by?

I would pick these up just for the possibility of getting that golden ticket. Don’t think I’d actually wear them though; they would go in the stash with my other hip hop collectibles (e.g. Dilla beat tapes)

I wonder how much these bad boys are going for

I heard the limited edition gold colorway is going for somewhere around $250.
