Both sneakers are part of the extensive Charles Barkley collaboration collection and have been released at Atmos and other premium sneakers retailers worldwide.

The Nike CB34’s were first released 1995/6 and were one of the most exciting releases of its time. Now they bring them back in two colorways – there is a Tweed version and a more classic black/red version. The Tweed version is dominated by brown leathers, tweed and some colorful accents in orange and purple. The black/red colorway of the CB 34 is the somewhat more classic look. Anthracite accents are looking good on these.
For those that want to go back in time and others that want a good basketball shoe, these are the way to go. Also its a good timing to bring these back, since Nike also celebrates Charles Barkley in the 25th anniversary AF1 campaign at the moment. After the jump detailed images of both styles.

It comes in a nice burgundy/red/blue colorway, and even though it’s not as interesting as the one that is based on the Alpha Force, it is a nice winter sneaker.
Along with the other Charles Barkley releases, they are now available at Atmos Tokyo.

Charles Barkley is one of the most outstanding NBA players of all time. Thus it is to no-ones surprise that Nike will bring out with him a pretty large line-up of Air Force 1’s as part of the 25th anniversary celebrations of the shoe.
Here we present you one of the most interesting and at the same time exciting releases of that collection – the “Alpha Force” AF1.
“Starting at the bottom of the tongue, the horizontal strap is that of the Alpha Force II. One of the last Nike Force shoes that Barkley wore before being granted his own signature line. Going up the tongue, you will see lace holes at the top like that of the Air Force V – one of the most sturdy basketball shoes made to date. Lastly, at the top of the tongue is the circa 1990 “Air Force” logo with the basketball again from the early Air Force products that Barkley wore.” Via Nice Kicks.
There is no exact release date so far, but expect these to come out some time in October.

We continue previewing Nike AF1’s out of the Charles Barkley series, which will be hitting stores in the coming months. Today we present you the Gold Medal AF1’s.
During his 16 years in the NBA, Charles Barkley was never able to walk away with an NBA Championship despite having 11 All Star appearances, winning league MVP in 1993, and being named to the NBA’s 50 Greatest Players of all time in 1996.

One thing that Sir Charles will be remembered for for decades to come was his domination on the court against the world as he lead the Dream Team in ‘92 and Dream Team II in ‘96 to Olympic Gold. In both Olympic Games Barkley lead Team USA in scoring as well as set a single game scoring record of 30 points in the ‘92 Games. Via Nicekicks.

These Air Force Ones will be released at the end of November for $125.

This fall, Nike is honoring Charles Barkley with not only the re-release of the “Godzilla” CB34s but also three months of Air Force Ones. This model is to honor his time at Auburn University. The shoes are a very unique yet clean colorway with nice touches such as contrast stitching on the swoosh as well as a one of a kind style of stitching on the side panel. Best of all, this pair will only be $80 when they release in October. Via Nicekicks.
Definitely in the mass of AF1’s that got so far released this year, one of the nicer ones and something to look out for!
