SNEAKER CULTURE: RANKING NIKE SNEAKERS BY DECADE, BY STEPHEN CHEETHAM

Let the debate begin! London-based designer Stephen Cheetham has created a series of illustrations based on what he considers to be the best Nike’s of each decade starting with the 70s, 80s, 90s, and ending with our current 00s (double goose eggs).

I am not a sneaker head by nature, as my lean budget forces me to "window shop" only when it comes to new and shiny kicks, but I always appreciate well crafted foot wear, good design and color theory.

Obviously, the classic Air Jordan 1 is going to make the list, but check out the great illustrations below and judge for your self!    (via slamxhype and upper playground)
