Rio Ferdinand and his team, the Manchester United, have just won their 18th partnership last Saturday, and subsequently Nike has invited him to create his own 1World Air Force 1. The shoe features a mostly white leather upper, with a gold swoosh and gold contrast stitching, along with an icy sole and an interesting quote on the insole. [KixFiles]

Nike has once again created another successful addition to their 1World line. This time they sought out the design help of Chinese basketball player, Yi Jianlian. The shoe will feature an upper made of croc leather and woven leather in a creamy white color, accented by the brown outsole. [EUKicks]
