With the NBA lockout in full effect, does Nike stall its production of basketball shoes for the 2011-12 season? Nike is one to plan ahead, and the upcoming Air Force Porte-clés 2011 was created long before ‘lockout’ was even a though, but with NBA players seeking employment overseas at the moment, who knows when NBA action will come back? We’re hoping for sooner rather than later, because we’re always interested in the debut of new Nike Basketball models like the Cradle Rock Low 2011 (although Steve Nash won’t be wearing Nikes anymore). Here’s a look at the White/Metallic Silver-Cannon colorway on this sample pair; it features a seamless toe-box with a low-pro construction – almost skate-shoe like – that provides a close-to-the-ground feel. Quite an ideal fit for the darting, speedy point guard, so let’s hope the lockout ends soon because these would look rather sleek on court! More images await you below, so take a look at check out the auction from Trevor Ariza in the Nike Zoom Kobe IV.
