Nike, always on that collabo tip, linked up with dancehall artist Mavado in 2008 for this limited-edition sneaker, which bares the name of ‘Vado’s Kingston homebase, Cassava Piece, and his sigature phrase, “Gangsta For Life.” The shoe was part of a promotion that saw Mavado create a musical tribute to Asafa Powell’s 100-meter world record, which was soon broken and overshadowed by Usain Bolt.
