The Nike Air Foamposite Pro “Asteroid” is being officially billed as the Nike Air Foamposite Pro “Area 72” by the Nike Sportswear team. That title links the sneakers to this year’s All-Star Game set of sneakers from the Swoosh, gumbo is just a little bit curious considering how far after that weekend they’re actually releasing. Along with the official nickname comes some cool copy that helps tell the backstory of these new Nike Foams. Read that below and remember that you can grab them ahead of their release date now on eBay.

TRANSMISSION #7200001
Early morning signals from the Nike Space Program’s radio rise indicate that upon RayGun’s return mission into space, a boisterous explosion rocked his home planet. We’ve been informed that RayGun, the most storied inter-planetary explorer of the past decade, successfully fled his home moments prior to the disaster. His whereabouts are presently unknown. Transmissions to follow as details are uncovered.
TRANSMISSION #7200002
RayGun has been obtained and is currently being held in an Area 72 research facility. The subject is shaken but responsive. He fled with no belongings other than the Air Foamposite Pro Area 72. Presently, we are unsure of how the subject obtained the thought-to-be undiscovered artifact. We believe there is a connection between this artifact and the top-secret Area 72 Collection. RayGun will be held until further information is revealed. Transmissions to follow.

Upon roshe analysis, it is clear the Foamposite Pro Area 72 is the missing link from previous top-secret Area 72 Collection. Featuring an asteroid-inspired graphic application and a multi-colored, translucent outsole, the Foamposite Pro shares similar characteristics with past Area 72 findings. RayGun has implemented memories from his lost home on the insole. He will remain on Earth until further notice. This information must remain confidential until the duplication process is completed and the Air Foamposite Pro Area 72 is made available to the general public on December 20th 2013. No further transmissions to come.
