Project 365: Importance As this is the second to last Project 365 photo, I felt the need to address something as far as the decade ending today and whatnot… So, I went with one of my loves (sneakers) and why the Nike Air Zoom Generation is the most important sneaker release of this past decade. Yes, I’m going with this shoe over the re-release of the classic Jordans, the Dunk, the Free, 360 Air, Formotion, the Gil-Zero, The Hyperdunk and the Kobe IV. I’m going with this for two reasons: 1) this was LeBron’s first shoe. So, from a relevance standpoint, this shoe is already important. 2) it brought back the best cushioning set up Nike has ever come up with - zoom air front, max air back, carbon fiber midfoot.  The Air Zoom Generation shares this set up with two of the more iconic Nike Basketball shoes of the past 15 years: The Air Penny II and the Pippen II. Both were stylish, ahead of the game, and very forgiving for players of any height/weight. Unlike those two… the AZG has yet to be given the retro treatment. So, what you’re looking at is ORIGINAL STATUS. And yes, I will be rocking these more and more in the coming months.
