The Black Fives Foundation is dedicated to researching, preserving and showcasing the inspiring legacy of pre-1950 African American basketball (known as the "Black Fives era"). This collection is an homage to the early 20th century black basketball pioneers who paved the way for generations of players to come. The down-to-earth design of this Suede Classic edition reflects the authentic grassroots origins of this game-changing sports movement, with raw pure suede, natural dyes and original collab graphics.
