I believe you are speaking of the VI? This may help you out: http://www.nike.com/jumpman23/historyofflight/

Right on Lando. That is the one, but all white looks awful. Off for more research.

Yeah that is just to show you the models and construction. They never made an all white version of that model from memory. What size are you and what colorway are you looking for? They retroed the VI last year or the year before. I can help you locate a pair if you let me know the sizing and color info.

Lando, I guess I would be a 9.5 and I would mostly be interested in the original colorway, black/red/grey.
Thanks for the help!

Not a problem, I will keep my eyes peeled for you. Hope you are ready to spend a little cash…

Yea, I looked on the bay and they sell for upwards of $400.

You could get one of the other colorways (White/ Black or Black/ Varsity Purple) today for around $150ish if you want. They retroed in 2010. The OG colorway always sells out first when retroed. -

Feck me, too slow. $150 isn't too bad. Where do you guys get your sneakers online?

imo these are the nastiest things I have seen.
I actually really like this, bought a pair of the wovens in the past 24 hours because this picture had me do some research. i fell in love with the blue gingham ones instantly

^^^^^
put that image up right on time. those are named Air Footscape Woven Motion & are a mash-up of two shoes. real sneaker heads feel free to interject on my reasoning for calling them a mash-up & for the history lesson.
Nike Air Footscape was released in 1995 & was originally a running shoe for dudes with wide feet. (images soon come, just had to get this up or i would say f^ck it)
Nike Woven was released in 2000 as a lifestyle release. It was designed by Mike Aveni & original released in Japan (the shoe has a few patents which to me is insane (http://www.google.de/patents?id=4tHOAAAAEBAJ&printsec=abstract&zoom=4#v=onepage&q&f=false). the shoe was produced in small numbers because it was handmade. can go on about all the inspirations behind the shoe but i'm much to lazy to continue. might of spoken out of turn when i referenced the shoe has native american inspirations cause i couldn't find anything to support the claim.
images after a while of both shoes to support my claim (since the two names being smashed together is not really enough

Don't know if this is interesting for anyone, but End Clothing (UK) has some Nike pre-order stuff going on:

Damn, Cris, you should just go all in and open your own sneakerhead shop. You have a crazy collection.

Yes, footscape wovens are an aquired taste. I personally like them. Very comfortable out the box….
Also found this old pic of my stash. Damn I wish I still have all these (so I can resell them and grab more IH paraphernalia ;D)
