Prohibitive Sports Sneaks

The Pro Bowl Air Force 1 is for Football Studs Only

I want to play in the NFL just so I can grab a pair of these sweet Pro Bowl Air Force 1 kicks. For years the Pro Bowl has been the red-headed step child of the NFL, but maybe that will all change with this new and exclusive shoe.

It most likely won't, though. At least the pros who 'played' got these sweet shoes for their friends and family. The Pro Bowl Air Force 1 shoes are made with premium leather with pink and teal trim. I’m starting to get sick of Nike teasing us with sport-stud-only shoes. Normal people like me want cool shoes too, Nike!
