Sporting giant Nike has just released two new pairs of sneakers in honor of Golden State's NBA finals win last night.
The special edition sneakers are made of eco-friendly black cork with gold speckled detailing throughout the Airforce 1 High and Air Force 1 Low styles. Inspired by the winning team and the infamous locker room celebrations that always follow the league's biggest game of the year, the new designs are available through Nike's customizable line NikeiD.
Fans are able to use the style as a base for online customization so they can be a part of Golden State's moment of glory. This commemorative customized experience is great for super fans who have been following Golden State since their loss at last year's finals against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
