Shoe-in

Another piece of basketball history was made as sneaker heads, athletes and hip-hop aficionados gathered at Fiamma Bar for one night of love, in celebration of the 25th year of the iconic Nike Air Force 1.

For their 25th anniversary, Nike honored those who made the Air Force 1 what it is today: a legendary shoe that defined basketball and street culture.

Something with a mobile phone attached to it, so I don’t have to bring my phone along – I can just wear my shoes!
