Few shoes hold as much weight culturally as the famed Nike Air Foamposite. For a shoe which is so extreme in its look, the infamy of rocking "Foams" is equalled only by the difficulty of sourcing a pair.

This right here is the OG, the eggplant purple masterpiece which spawned a whole generation of sneakerheads who would become Foam obsessives.
