My question is when was da very last alpha project?

All da shox in da green boxes were in AP..so was da

Entire flightposite line..every Vince Carter.

None of da lebrons though.

Maybe the Zoom 2k3?? As far as the AP line, 90% of their kicks were dope as hell. I had a few of those classics back then and the commercials were so brilliant! Like people here mentioned, that might of been the greatest sneaker era nike has ever done! You can quote me on that!

Alpha > kobe line, lebron line, kd line.

Yeah I said it and I'll say it again. Price, quality, looks. Can't say tech or comfort because of course that'll get better over time.

Yep, AP is much more stylish. Late 90s early 00s was the period for Nike basketball. Downhill since then

I know I'm almost 10 years late on this thread but I think it's important enough to revive, for either the sake of the entire alpha project or the collection of such. The year being 2016, I think AP might be coming back in slight doses, or at least the presto is. But i Need everyone's help. I plan on trying my best to collect every shoe model (not every colorway) from Alpha project. I know it's a long shot but I think it's such a cool time for Nike, and it's so over looked. I already have the 2001 Nike Air P-Phazes and Presto secure, and I need to know the rest. If you can, please reply with every Alpha project model you can remember

Zoom Haven (cult classic)

Zoom Drive (not the basketball shoe - see below. As running shoes, they could have been great, but very awkward upper and difficult to get your foot in)

correct me if im wrong, but the kukini was also part of the alpha project? either way, 7th grade i had these and STILL waiting for a retro......

langfor5 · Nov 29, 2016

Kukini was an Alpha Project.

fdub · Nov 29, 2016

I remember Nike Shox BB4's in Black/silver/blue came out the same day the Nike Air FLightposite 2's in navy blue/black on 11/15/00

Update: the mission slowed a bit but still going. I've got prestos checked off easy (not the recent retros lol), P-phazes (personal favorites from AP), pippen 4, That's all I can think of ATM. I know there's more, but about to get a pair of pippen 3s, largely cause I want a pair of wearable AP kicks
