The Sole Provider: Thirty Years of Nike Basketball

This a very good book and a MUST if you are a sneaker head!

This book was well detailed and gives well articulated information from the first to current Nike Basketball shoe. This gives the backround and inspiration for almost each bold Nike shoe. It tells about the technology that is given to each shoe to make it unique. This book lets Nike shoe lovers know how shoes are made and the steps it takes to make it. At the end of the book it gives approximately 15 pages full of every Nike basketball shoe made in chronilogical order. This book deserves to be read and should be read by all Nike shoe lovers. This book deserves 5 STARS.

Great book. I'm a Nike Fiend. This shows the history of the great hobby of shoe collecting. I even saw my old Olympic edition Charles Barkley Air Force 180's.

I gave this book to my boyfriend for his birthday. He collects shoes, mostly nike. He saw an ad in one of his basketball magazines for this book and didn't just want it, he NEEDED it. He got the book and couldn't put it down. He also wanted to see a picture of the new Jordan's coming out in 2003 and was disappointed when they weren't in the book. But he took off the hard back cover protector and saw that it is on the hard cover. He was very excited and thought that was pretty cool how they tried to keep it on the downlow. The book also has drawings of the shoes before they become final, it is neat to see how the evolve into the final shoe. All in all great layout and a great book.

Awesome pics of all the shoes.JORDANS,AIR FORCE ONE'S the whole thing! A must have for a Nike fan.
