Nike Ace ’83 Autoclave – Brown – Tan – Houndstooth

In baseball, your ace is your number one pitcher, the go-to guy.  Apparently for basketball, your ace is something to just bury for about a quarter-century and then revive with a bunch of its peers.  A bit of a stretch, maybe, but Nike probably had to reach pretty far back into their Beaverton, OR vaults to find the Ace ’83 Autoclave.  It seems like a perfect fit with other classic basketball retros and others being updated with autoclaved soles.  This particular pair boes with tonal browns that carry over perfectly to the houndstooth lining.  Retailing for a totally reasonable $59 USD, these are available now at select Nike retailers.  via HB
