Hot on the heels of the super-cool Nike x Transformers 2 pack, Nike will also be releasing another three pack of kicks inspired by another classic 80’s cartoon turned summer blockbuster. You may have already seen our preview of the Cobra Commander Alpholution and now we get a look at another installment of the collection. The deadly white-suited Cobra ninja, Storm Shadow, will be the inspiration for the second shoe in the pack, a mostly White Zoom Sharkalaid with some minimal Black and Red accents and a clear outsole. Like the Cobra Commander Alpholution, these kicks feature the Cobra insignia on the tongue and a Swoosh x Cobra logo on the insoles. These are expected to drop some time in August to coincide with the release of the G.I. Joe movie and will of course be packaged in a retro-looking G.I. Joe toy box similar to the Transformers 2 Pack. Via FootLockerUnlocked.

Packaging dope.
But yeah Sharkalaids are ugly.
The only decent colourway i saw were the one’s Rudy Gay was wearing in that USA Team stuff…and they still weren’t that attractive.
If i find some on a clearance rack or something for like 40, 50, or lower i might cop…as they’re prolly like ballin on pillows…

Nike its all about creativity… yo ready did the transformers pack on this one and it was well taken by the collectors but it doesn’t mean this will. They are ugly and not original. Be creative and take time for what u release to your customers.

Sucks man, both of the characters I would get (Soundwave from TF and Storm Shadow) are both ugly ass Sharkalaids. I actually rock my kicks, and for sure don’t feel like trying to pull the thin double strap style off again. It was weird in the 90s, it’s weird now.
