Air Obamas

Well, Nike didn't want the public to go without, but they are available on a very limited basis. NikeBlog.com has the details of the limited availability of the new Air Jordan Pure Pressure, Inauguration Edition shoes.

According to NikeBlog.com and FootlockerUnlocked.com,

January 20th was obviously a pretty historic day in US history, as we inaugurated our first black president. As an on-court tribute that same day, Joe Johnson and Mike Bibby each wore special Air Jordan Pure Pressure PE's which included stars and stripes, red, white and blue and the date of the inauguration on the tongue tag. The shoes recently dropped in a limited public release at all three House of Hoops locations. I've heard they may already be sold out in most sizes, in which case OSneaker.com has them for $230.

Um...Baracks my man but $230...NEGRO PLEASE!!! We in a recession.
