In terms of Nike athletes and their signature shoes in the '90s, Chris Webber was overshadowed by Michael Jordan and Penny Hardaway. Now, twenty years after its original release, Nike is bringing Webber's signature sneaker back into the spotlight. Previously known as the Air Max CW, now known as the Air Max Sensation, the sneaker joins the list of original Nike's being retroed.

Essentially, a continuation of Charles Barkley's signature line, the Nike Air Max Sensation "Black/Varsity Royal" features many similarities in the Air Max unit and lacing. The mostly black sneaker is made up of a leather and suede upper with royal blue accents on the sides and back of the sneaker. Aside from replacing Webber's number and logo on the heel with a Swoosh, the upcoming pair is nearly identical to the sneakers he wore on-court for the Washington Bullets. 

There's no official release date information, but stay posted as these are coming soon.
