Nice Kicks Staff Picks

With Black Friday having just taken place, hurting many of our wallets, it’s a bit of surprising to see the staff make the choices each member did. Rather than opt for this week’s many drops, a most Nice Kickers chose shoes that won’t see a release for a long time. Which was your favorite shoe from this holiday week? Head to the comments section and let us know.

DMC-12 x Nike 6.0 "DeLorean Dunk"

Nike and DeLorean killed it with this collab. Everything about this shoe inside out including the packaging is on point. Never mind the carbon fiber looking footbed or stainless steel looking upper, the outsole absolutely kills it drawing a perfect parallel to the taillights of the DeLorean. Props to the designer on noticing this detail.

Consider this shoe a defining moment in Nike 6.0.

Air Jordan 12 Flu Game

Much like this year, Jordan Brand began releasing its major Air Jordan Retro offerings around the end of November. Specifically, the Air Jordan 12 “Flu Game” around this time last year to many sneaker enthusiast’s delight. Although some people were opposed to its obvious texture makeup altering (the OG pair featured black leather instead of nubuck) and the sick face on the midfoot, the “Flu Game” Air Jordan 12 still became the most sought-after Air Jordan 12 of 2009.

Did you purchase the "Flu Game" Air Jordan 12, and was it worth the money you paid for it? If not, are you wishing you would have snagged them last November?
