Introducing Nike Basketball ‘Black History Month’ Collection
While we knew the Nike & Jordan Brand Black History Month Collection was coming soon but I had no idea Nike nor JB was going to go all out like this.
Today the collection was officially unveiled to the masses and I am overall impressed, it is pretty difficult to pick a favorite honestly.
Check out all the details regarding the Black History Month Collection from sneakers to apparel and let us know down in the comments which is your favorite.
NIKE, Inc. celebrates Black History Month with a collection of products across basketball, football, running, soccer and skateboarding that honors six athletes and coaches who have positively impacted sport with their courage and determination: Theotis Beasley, Kevin-Prince Boateng, Jerry Rice, Brianna Rollins, C. Vivian Stringer and John Thompson.
“Sport is an incredible platform to inspire and encourage positive social change,” said Michael Jackson, Vice President and General Manager of Global Basketball, Nike Brand. “Our 2015 Black History Month Collection honors and celebrates the athletes and leaders who have influenced global culture and have paved the way for our next generation.”
