UPDATE (September 17)

Nike Store has announced that the "Patriots" Nike Lunar Force 1 will release tomorrow at 10 a.m. EST on Nike.com.

UPDATE (September 10, 5:29 p.m.):

Here's what went down at the release of the sneaker at Nike Boston where Patriots Owner Robert Kraft came down to try on the sneakers, sign pairs, and meet fans.

See the original story from September 8, 2015, below.

The New England Patriots are easily the most divisive team in American sports, thanks to the Deflategate scandal that surrounded the team's road to winning last year's Super Bowl. But that hasn't stopped Nike from celebrating the team's victory in the form of owner Robert Kraft's favorite sneaker, the Air Force 1.

The team announced today that there would be a limited-edition pair of Lunar Force 1s with the Patriots' logo on the tongue tag, which is accompanied by the four Super Bowl trophies that the team has been able to accrue since Tom Brady took over at quarterback. Kraft's initials, R.K.K., also appear on the lacelock.

Getting these sneakers won't be easy, though, as they'll be sold at Nike Boston on Thursday, September 10, at 9 a.m., with a release at Patriots Pro Shop on Friday, September 11, at 9 a.m.
