I decided to post video's of various sneakers worn in television & films.
For my 1st S.I.M (Sneakers In Media) post I decided to go with a show that's a little more obscure. Many of us have spotted sneakers in various shows such as "A Different World", "Seinfeld", "Martin" & "The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air". How many of us can say we spotted a popular sneaker in Star Trek?
No, not the Captain James T Kirk Star Trek. This is the Borg fighting, 7 of 9 is the best thing on t.v having, Star Trek Voyager. Not only does this episode have a popular sneaker, it has the sneaker being worn by The Peoples Champ - The Rock & the lovely 7 of 9!!! Below you can watch the two fight while wearing Nike Flightposites in the Feb, 9th, 2000 Voyager episode titled "Tsunkatse"
Actress Jeri Ryan (7 of 9) Flightposites were auctioned on Ebay by California based screen used entertainment memorabilia dealer ItsAWrap, with the rest of her costume for $1,325 on June 29th of 2007. The modified Nike Flightposites have a blue light attached to each side that is each powered by a single 9Volt battery. The battery, electronics and switch are housed in the back of each shoe in a black Velcro pouch. One can only wonder what happened to the Rock's pair.
