Is there anything that Vashtie Kola can't do? She's a DJ, director, promoter, designer, and consultant, but she's best known by sneakerheads for being the first woman to ever design her own Air Jordan.

The violet-tinged Vashtie x Air Jordan IIs are also notable for being the first Jordan II collaboration ever — years before Don C got busy on his pair. But how did they come about in the first place? In this exclusive clip from the upcoming Sneakerheadz documentary, Vashtie takes us back to 2010 and explains how she got the chance to make sneaker history.

Sneakerheadz is now available for pre-order and officially releases on August 21. Click here for more information.
