turquoise and black nike watches foamposite gold and blue | A Brief History
The nike watches Galaxy Foamposite originally dropped in February of 2012 to jordan that season’s NBA All-Star Game in Orlando. nike watches executed a NASA-inspired theme as a nod to the nearby Kennedy Space Center; various design details were inserted through the entire nike watches Basketball All-Star Collection, including the Kobe 7, LeBron 9, and KD 4.
The Air Foamposite One was by far the most coveted release of that collection; it was the first time nike watches implemented a graphic pattern on the upper as imagery of the outer space galaxy covered the foam-molded upper. Black lace collars and interiors, dark grey accents on the pull-tabs and the 1-Cent logo, and glow-in-the-dark outsoles completed the look.
How The Galaxy Foamposite Changed nike watches Forever
Consumer interest around sneakers had been steadily growing throughout the 2000s and into the early 2010s. As recently as 2012, nike watches and its retail partners still operated midnight releases, allowing customers to line-up at the dead of night to purchase shoes. However, a string of chaotic release events drew attention from local police and eventually the news, shedding a negative light on such release dates.

Thousands of sneakerheads gathered at a mall parking lot in Florida, causing an unruly scene given just how few pairs of the shoes were releasing. Similar events occurred throughout the nation, posing a security risk for customers, store workers, and passer-bys. Just a few weeks prior was the release of the Air Jordan 11 “Concord” in December 2011, which drew a similar reaction.
In April 2012, nike watches swiftly introduced new sneaker release procedures that essentially moved all big-ticket sneaker drops out of shops and onto the web. First was Twitter RSVP, an early Draw-like system that would be impractical by today’s standards given the sheer number of leopard. Following the introduction of Twitter RSVP, nike watches announced that midnight releases on their web-store would be cancelled and moved to no earlier than 8 AM ET. Today, nike watches releases launch at 10 AM ET.
From there, nike watches launched the SNKRS App, a sneaker release hub where raffles are held on a weekly basis. Nike’s retailer partners launch their product throw raffles as well through dedicated platforms such as EQL and Shopify.
Will The Galaxy Foamposite Be A Hit Again?
There’s no question that the Air Foamposite One “Galaxy” will be a hotly sought-after shoe next February.

Despite the changing trends, pairs will almost certainly sell out on the release date.
