Classics Revisited: Nike Air Bakin' (1997), nike air bakin for sale

NIKE BASKETBALL 1990's WEEK

Finishing off this week's focus on some of most unforgettable 1990's Nike Basketball Classics is perhaps one of the most controversial sneakers of all-time – the Nike Air Bakin'. Falling in one of the best years of Nike Hoops of that decade (1997, which spawned the Air Foamposite One, Zoom Flight Five, and the Air Jordan XII), the Air Bakin' was a visual standout with the uniquely place waves that adorned the upper and the funky Black/Red/Yellow colorway (there was also a lesser-known Black/Royal version). The shoe was popular among speedy guards – particularly Tim Hardaway, who was known for one of the quickest first-steps in NBA history – but the Bakin' has a place in sneakerhead history for a whole different reason.

What makes the Nike Air Bakin' such a sizzling story is the controversy that arose from the fiery logo on the heel; it was the word ‘Air' designed in a fiery motif, but backlash from the Muslim community for its slight resemblance to ‘Allah' in Arabic text forced Nike to recall the shoes and re-release with a basic Nike Air logo. Not only was this a high-performer, but also a scintillating story that is still recalled today. More of the Bakin' after the jump, so take a look and let us know if you think there's any real controversy behind the Air logo, and stay tuned to next week's new batch of Classics Revisited !

Nike Air Bakin Re-Retro, nike air bakin for sale

We're not talking about the Maryland House of Hoops Air Bakin' exclusive. but the OG (black/red) Air Bakin returns once again. This colorway was first introduced in 1997, and then made its retro debut in 2007. As expected, Nike released new colorways of the Air Bakin' after the re-release of the black/red Bakin's.

Out of the three original colors, Nike re-released two OG colors; black/red and royal blue/black. To our surprise, the black/red Air Bakin' is back! How did this news stay under the retro radar so long? The sneaker world may never know, but its been confirmed by the genuine folks at ExtraButter that the black/red Bakin's are back once again.

ExtraButter takes phone orders, so hit them up if you need a pair. Also, contact your local shops for more info. Step up your Air Bakin' history after the jump…

I'm sure most of the older or vintage collectors already know the story behind the Nike Air Bakin logo. Well, if you're new to the game, don't collect vintage Nikes, or too young to remember, pay attention. Back in 1997 an Islamic group had a concern with the flame logo on the back of the Air Bakin. Nike didn't put the logo on the back to offend anyone, instead the logo was suppose to resemble a flame since the shoes were named Air "Bakin".

The Islamic group had a problem with the logo because it was similar to the Arabic word for "God" or "Allah." Nike and Muslim groups later came to an agreement, and Nike did a recall on the Air Bakin. The Air Bar-B-Q also featured the same flame logo on the heel and was also recalled.

The retro is $125.

Shake N Bakin'

Traction – These feature a herringbone pattern which is very deep and durable. On clean courts, the traction is adequate but nothing spectacular. Occasionally you may have to wipe but on a dusty or dirty floor wipes are a necessity. I slipped on a few different occasions, especially in the heel area where the traction is minimal on quick stops during pull up jumpers and hop-steps. I would have liked to have seen the traction go up and around the midsole a bit in the medial forefoot area to help with those side to side movements a little. Outdoors, however, this traction should be great as the herringbone pattern is very deep and not very pliable.

Cushioning – This shoe features heel and forefoot Air Max and it works as advertised. The Air Max feels really good and will provide optimum impact protection. One thing Air Max does not give you is flexibility so if you are looking for more range of motion then this may not be for you. The shoe flexes in a weird place so if you primarily use your forefoot this shoe might move a bit awkwardly but at the same time the forefoot has decent court feel which is pretty responsive. But, like I said, forefoot players will feel some discomfort so while the forefoot cushion feels great the fit and materials caused some discomfort.

Materials – The Nike Air Bakin' uses a synthetic nubuck overlay and a mesh underlay. It’s very comfortable but over time the wear and tear allowed the materials to stretch, especially in the toe area. The ankle area is padded well for added comfort and around the shoe you have a very durable rubberized rand/ mudguard that’s ideal for outdoor use. This material should prevent the upper from separating from the midsole while you play outdoors.

Fit – They fit true to size & the ankle area features are nice, thick padding that reminds me a lot of adidas’ GEOFIT system. The overall lockdown is great from the mid-foot back but the forefoot area is lacking. The shoe flexes in a weird place, in-between your toenail and beginning of the toe, this also is where the material had stretched at the toe which allowed for an uncomfortable fit at times leaving me with more dead space than I would have liked. Because of this, when I made quick stops, my toes slammed against the front of the shoe and at the end of the night my toes were sore.

Ventilation – So the Air Bakin’ may look well ventilated from the mesh underlay but it is not. Underneath the mesh inside the shoe is more material blocking heat from escaping. This is also present in the tongue and there is virtually no way for heat to escape. The mesh design seems as if it was used to cut down weight but not ventilation.

Support – A shoes main goal is to protect and assist your foot and the lack of an outrigger on the forefoot means you really have to have plant your feet or at least have really good footwork. If you are a slasher and use quick lateral movements the Nike Air Bakin’ leaves something to be desired there. Lockdown was great from the midfoot back but the stretching of the materials over time allowed for the lockdown in the forefoot to lack. The molded midsole for arch support worked well and I didn't experience any arch discomfort or strain

While many believe that there is no such thing as bad publicity, most will agree that the line between being edgy and being controversial is one that carries significant baggage. In the case of the competitive world of sneakers, companies look to everything from holidays to burgeoning designers, to athletic heroes as a means to capitalize on a chunk of the billion dollar industry. Even in today's world which cultivates more tangible news than ever in regards to footwear, more times than not the average shoe's shelf life is that of its commercial appeal. While hype inevitably fades, certain shoes have kicked up dust and become certifiable controversies and remain relevant not for what they were, but what they were deemed to be. Here are 20 of the most memorable sneaker controversies.

Air Jordan 1 Banned by the NBA
In a letter from NBA Executive Vice President Russ Granik to Nike Vice President Rob Strasser that was written in 1985, it stated the following: “In accordance with our conversation, this will confirm and verify that the National Basketball Association's rules and procedures prohibited the wearing of certain red and black NIKE basketball shoes by Chicago Bulls player Michael Jordan on or around October 18, 1984.” Officially designated as non-court wearable by Commissioner Stern for “non-regulation colors,” Jordan nevertheless rocked the shoe during his 1984 Rookie of the Year campaign and Nike footed the $5,000 a game fine. Rod Thorn, the Bulls' general manager at the time, asked Jordan's agent David Falk, “What are you trying to do? Turn him into a tennis player?” “Now you get it,” said Falk. Up until that point, tennis players were the only athletes who the general public had a hyper awareness to as it related to footwear.

adidas's JS Roundhouse Mids

Broaching the question, “Got a sneaker game so hot you lock your kicks to your ankles?,” adidas planned to roll out the Jeremy Scott-designed shoes with a rubber shackle on the ankle in August of 2012 before a Facebook post touting the release caused an outcry due to what many saw as slave imagery. One of adidas's most high-profile condemnations came from the Rev. Jesse Jackson who said, “The attempt to commercialize and make popular more than 200 years of human degradation, where blacks were considered three-fifths human by our Constitution is offensive, appalling and insensitive.” Ultimately, adidas scrapped the shoe altogether despite Scott's insistence that his work was rooted in cartoons, toys and his childhood. adidas would say, “The design of the JS Roundhouse Mid is nothing more than the designer Jeremy Scott's outrageous and unique take on fashion and has nothing to do with slavery. We apologize if people are offended by the design and we are withdrawing our plans to make them available in the marketplace.”

The LeBron X Price Tag

When The Wall Street Journal reported that LeBron James' signature sneaker would be released for a $315 USD price point, it seemed to create an instant uproar as it related to how much value we placed on athletic stars and the products tied to them. Although there was a distinct difference between the pricier “enhanced version” that boasted motion sensing technology and the base model which retailed for $180 USD, it seemed that the controversy was really about the people that were willing to pay the lofty price, not that Nike was charging that amount.

The Nike Air Bakin Font

The “Nike Air” fiery font that appeared on the back of the 1997 release caused a controversy amongst Muslim groups who believed the abstraction closely resembled the word “Allah.” Two years prior, Nike was forced to remove a billboard near the University of Southern California that depicted Los Angeles Clippers basketball player John Williams who starred at Crenshaw High School with the headline, “They called him Allah.” Nike ended up withdrawing all 38,000 pairs worldwide and subsequent retro releases of the shoe featured a more traditional Nike Air font.

Erin Andrews' Reporting on the Nike Zoom Alpha Talon Cleats

During the 2011 Rose Bowl between TCU and Wisconsin, sideline reporter Erin Andrews offered up a halftime tidbit that the Horned Frogs were slipping all over the field because of their new Nike Zoom Alpha Talon cleats. A few days later, Andrews lent her face to Reebok’s ZigTech advertising campaign. In her first public comments on the matter, Andrews said that she was “doing her job when she reacted to ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit saying TCU players were slipping by obtaining and relaying a comment from the team’s equipment manager.” Andrews said of her endorsement deal, “First of all, it’s a fitness shoe, not a football cleat. Second of all, it’s a female fitness shoe. I didn’t see any females on the field at the Rose Bowl. My third thing is, you’ve got to be crazy to think, given how under scrutiny I am, how people dissect every little thing I say, I do, who I hang out with, to think for a minute I’m going to think to myself, ‘Oh, yeah, I’m going to go after this company right now.’ Are you kidding me?”

The Umbro Zyklon's name

The Zyklon trainer provoked outrage from Jewish groups, prompting manufacturer Umbro to apologize for the mistake and “regret any offense caused” after realizing that the shoe's namesake resembled the Zyklon B crystals that were used by the Nazis during World War II as a means of extermination. Dr. Stephen Smith, cofounder of the Beth Shalom Holocaust Center in Nottinghamshire, England said, “Considering the care with which companies normally choose titles for their products, I also find it hard to believe Umbro's assertion that the naming of the shoe was ‘purely coincidental.'”

Skechers' “Daddy's Money” campaign

After being forced to pay millions of dollars for false advertisement relating to their shoes ability to “tone” wearers, Skechers once again found itself in a public relation's nightmare pertaining to their “Daddy's Money” campaign. Seen by critics as a sexist, materialistic ploy by the company that paints female wearers as incapable of succeeding without male assistance, Skechers defended the campaign in a statement to ABC. saying, “The Daddy's Money name and the collection's advertising are designed to be fun and lighthearted. We regret that some people have been offended by the name.”

adidas Y1 HUF Ray Fong character

While artist Barry McGee/Twist – who was responsible for the fictional bondsman Ray Fong caricature for the collaboration between adidas and HUF – is half Chinese and he insisted that the depiction was a self-portrait of himself at eight years old, many saw the imagery as racially insensitive. In a press release. McGee said, “The name Ray Fong came from my Uncle Ray Fong who passed away over a decade ago. Keith (HUF) and I never thought the image was ‘racist' and I am sorry to those people who perceive it that way. All I remember is having Stan Smith’s face on my adidas when I was young and was elated to put a caricature of myself on a shoe when presented the opportunity this year.” Four years earlier, Abercrombie & Fitch found itself running afoul of public adoration when they released a series of T-shirts with similar Asian caricatures with the slogan Wong Brothers Laundry Service — Two Wongs Can Make It White.

Air Jordan 12 “Rising Sun”

While 2009 from Jordan Brand featured re-releases or colorways we had seen in the past like the “Flu Game,” the “Nubuck,” and the White/Red Air Jordan 12s, the “Rising Sun” Air Jordan 12s were the lone, new colorway of MJ’s 12th signature model. The controversy arose from the Japanese Rising Sun Military Flag printed on the insoles, which made waves with Korean and Chinese retailers and consumers upon arrival – as the flag is seen as a symbol for Japanese imperialism and historic aggression toward those countries.

The Nike SB Black and Tan Quickstrike

Coinciding with St. Patrick's Day, Nike attempted to get in on the festivities by naming an SB Quickstrike after a popular beverage that combines Guinness and Bass. The “Black And Tan” name however, has another, more sinister connotation for many Irish people. The Black And Tans were a British paramilitary unit deployed to Ireland in the 1920s to suppress an armed revolution against British rule. The group became notorious for their numerous attacks on the Irish civilian population. Ciaran Staunton, President of the Irish Lobby for Immigration Reform, told Irishcentral.com that the move left him speechless. “It would be the American equivalent of calling a sneaker ‘the al-Qaeda.'”

Marcus Jordan's Insistence to Wear Jordans at UCF

Sometimes referred to as “Heir Jordan,” MJ's youngest son, Marcus, got a scholarship to the University of Central Florida where he hoped to carry on two traditions: being both a dominant collegiate player and donning his father's signature sneakers. The only problem was that UCF was sponsored by adidas. When Marcus took to the court in a pair of Jordans and his teammates all donned black adidas, he cost the school $3 million USD for not honoring their exclusivity contract.

Converse's Loaded Weapon

In 2003, Converse attempted to resurrect its fledgling basketball shoe sector with sponsorships with the likes of Chris Bosh, Kirk Hinrich and Michael Sweetney. However, the timing of the introduction of the “Loaded Weapon” release is what really fanned the proverbial flames. Former NBA All-Star Jayson Williams had been charged with manslaughter in the shooting of a limo driver, Washington Wizards guard Gilbert Arenas was charged in the summer with carrying a concealed weapon and Patrick Dennehy of Baylor had been fatally shot. Dave Maddocks of Converse said, “We have no second thoughts about the name, whatsoever. Sports is loaded with battlefield terminology. This is merely the name of a shoe.” Although valid points were made by both sides concerning the controversy, the fact that Converse pointed to “The Weapon” which was worn by Magic Johnson and Larry Bird in the '80s as a source of inspiration for the shoe and its revamped technology, many understood that the name derived from heritage rather than violence.

The Reissue of the Reebok “Big Hurt”

Looking to capitalize on the retro appeal of sneakers of yesteryear as well as his impending trip to Cooperstown this summer, Reebok decided to reintroduce the “Big Hurt” to the marketplace. The only problem is that they did so without Frank Thomas's input, didn't pay him to use his likeness and his Reebok deal had expired in 1998.

Bill Gleason's Sweatshop Question

As Michael Jordan sat in front of a pool of veteran reporters following the Bulls fourth championship, Daily Southtown reporter and Chicago media legend Bill Gleason diverted from softball questions pertaining to the game and instead lobbed a grenade of a question at His Airness. Asking about the sweatshops and conditions related to where his Nike products were made in the Far East, Michael politely shrugged it off but it was truly a moment for those who thought Michael was untouchable – especially in his hometown.

Kobe Bryant's Decision to go for a Low Top

When it was announced that Kobe Bryant would be lacing up a pair of low-tops, ESPN wrote, “They are the unwritten but widely accepted bylaws of sports footwear. Here, we hold these truths to be self-evident: Golf is to be played in spikes. Ice hockey is to be played on skates. Baseball and football are to be played in cleats. And basketball? Basketball is to be played in a pair of high-tops.” Although a 1993 University of Oklahoma study that appeared in the American Journal of Sports Medicine found no relationship between shoe height and ankle injury, five years later a study in the Journal of Sport Sciences found that increased ankle support did reduce the likelihood of a sprained ankle. At the time of Kobe's announcement that he had enlisted Nike designers to produce the lowest, lightest basketball shoe of all-time, 13% of the games players missed were attributed to ankle injuries – more than double the injury rate of any other part of the body.

Rick Ross's Fallout with Reebok

Rick Ross's controversial lyric on his song “U.O.E.N.O,” where he raps: “Put molly all in her champagne, she ain't even know it. I took her home and I enjoyed that, she ain't even know it” caused quite the controversy given that he seemed to be alluding to the sexual assault of a woman. While Ross ultimately apologized, Reebok ultimately cut ties with him after feeling he hadn't shown the “appropriate level of remorse.”

Kanye West Leaving Nike

In a surprise move that caught most sneaker aficionados off guard, Nike unexpectedly released the Air Yeezy 2 “Red October” online back in February and ultimately liquidated their entire stock in only 11 minutes. Was it a move by the sneaker juggernaut as a subtle slap to the ego of West who had decided to leave for adidas in November? What makes this dissolution of retail marriage so interesting is that we have yet to see if it was Nike's influence on West that made the Air Yeezy so sought after, or if the entertainer added a cultural infusion to the sporting giant. Regardless, this feud played out publicly as if producers for Keeping Up with the Kardashians had a hand in it.

The Detroit Pistons Ban Nike Hyperize

Arnie Kander, the Detroit Pistons' longtime strength and conditioning coach, said in 2010 that he had never seen as many ankle, knee and groin injuries his team faced during that season. What did he attribute that to: The lightweight Nike Hyperize which was .8 pounds versus other basketball shoes that at the time weighed between 1.4-1.7 pounds. “Since we've banned the shoe, knock on wood, we haven't had any ankle sprains,” Kander said. “Hopefully, the good Lord willing, we won't have any more and we can finish the season healthy and see what these guys can really do.”

Nike's global creative director, Tracy Teague, responded later that summer as the Swoosh began rolling out the Hyperdunk. “For us, the Hyperize was a shoe that we tested extensively, as were the Hyperdunk 2010s as well. That's something I don't think a lot of folks have a lot of visibility to is the amount of testing that goes on. Something like the Hyperize — we didn't see those kind of problems. If you just look at the total number of products that were out there, it was a very small percentage that actually had issues with it. But, I mean, we worry about anytime somebody has some issues. But for us, what we've been able to do, again, is find that fine edge of lightweight but yet still strong enough to perform…So that's the challenge, and that's the brunt of it, but I think it's good.”

Nike's Flyknit vs. adidas's Primeknit

At the heart of the battle between Nike and adidas was simply the ability to employ a one-piece fused yarn upper – with the former calling it Flyknit and the latter calling it Primeknit. Nike ultimately beat their competitors to the punch when they launched in April of 2012 with Mark Parker saying, “We took machines that were designed for something else, we altered the machines dramatically and then we created new software to do something that's never been done before in footwear. And that is actually going to change the whole formula for how footwear is made. I think you're going to see that on a larger and larger scale.” When adidas ultimately caught up, it was no surprise that Nike filed suit – but it was Mark Parker's initial words that proved important. adidas’s legal approach centered on the fact that both shoes boasted intertwined yarns in the construction and it’s a technique that has been employed since the 1940s.

The PUMA “Bonnie & Clyde”

While everyone is familiar with the iconic PUMA Clyde that honors Walt Frazier, their attempt to add a feminine alternative dubbed “The Bonnie” – an homage to the 1967 movie Bonnie and Clyde starring Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway – didn't come without its detractors. Featuring a golden pistol or Thompson machine gun on the heel. as well as the famous words “I steal for a living,” many anti-gun lobbyists were of the opinion that the shoes were more “irresponsible” than homages to a cinematic classic.

I’m sure most of the older or vintage collectors already know the story behind the Nike Air Bakin logo. Well, if you're new to the game, don’t collect vintage Nikes. or too young to remember, pay attention. Back in 1997 an Islamic group had a concern with the flame logo on the back of the Air Bakin. Nike didn’t put the logo on the back to offend anyone, instead the logo was suppose to resemble a flame since the shoes were named Air “Bakin”.

The Islamic group had a problem with the logo because it was similar to the Arabic word for “God” or “Allah.” Nike and Muslim groups later came to an agreement, and Nike did a recall on the Air Bakin. The Air Bar-B-Q also featured the same flame logo on the heel and was also recalled.

The retro is $125.

Sneaker Of The Day: Nike Air Bakin “Blackout”, nike air bakin for sale

I might be jumping the gun a little too soon, but it seems safe to say that the Nike brand has had the best year in the sneaker world so far. With the return of several classics plus a new LeBron & KD model, everyone everywhere has been rocking the Nike check during the first half of this year. One of the more hype releases so far has been the Nike Air Bakin. which has seen classic colorways make a comeback as well as newer ones. The colorway that seems to be getting the most hype, however, is one that hasn't even hit the shelves: the Nike Air Bakin “Blackout.”

If the name didn't give it away, the suede & mesh kicks are decked out in all black, complete with a shiny black patent leather midsole. Everyone needs a pair of black kicks, so if you don't have any, let these be the next pair you get. The “Blackout” Air Bakins will be available this Saturday, July 19th. so take a look & see if you'll be adding these to your collection.

Kairi knows the name of every pair of Jordans but couldn’t tell you a thing she learned in Math while in college- who uses exponents, anyway? Talk kicks with her @_findingforever .
