Here’s a shoe from Nike’s old school B-Ball line up that doesn’t get a lot of attention. The Nike Air Alpha Force II goes way back like Grandpa’s hair line, and the Nike Alpha Force is still a true OG even though they don’t get that much lime-light. Sir Charles use to ball in the Alpha Force I and II back in 1988/1989.

A new colorway of the Nike Alpha Force II has just released. They feature a black, varsity red, anthracite, and bright mango colorway. The base colors consist of black/anthracite, while yellow and red contrast stitching adds flavor to the simple base. The shoes also feature bright mango accents and a multi colored tongue. The new colorway of the Nike Air Alpha Force II is now available oversea, so check with your local Nike retailers.
