In the golden years of sneaker culture, most of the philosophy was driven by a basketball fan base. However as years past and times changed, sneakers styles expanded and so did the people that influenced and supported it. And so, new sports came into the spotlight, becoming new inspiration to which causes designs and styles to multiply exponentially. Boxing may seem like a sport that isn’t included in this scenario, being that their athletic footwear doesn’t vary much from boxer to boxer. But Manny Pacquiao‘s victorious story has certainly become something of legend. And so, as Manny fights Miguel Cotto in Vegas for a new title in the welterweight division, Nike is giving 150 lucky Filipinos the opportunity to a live screening of the bout. The invitation-only viewing will be in the city of Makati, Philippines. The winners will be chosen for the best 7-word story to depict Pacman’s journey to obtain a record-breaking 7th title across 7 different weight divisions. During the screening, it will be announced who was chosen with the absolute best entry, which will be awarded with a super-exlusive pair of MP Air Trainer 1’s, of course designed with a Philippines colorway.
