Nike is reviving one of its most legendary sneakers with the return of the Nike Air Foamposite One “Galaxy.” To celebrate, the brand is hosting a Trading Post event in New York City on February 20, 2025, at 5:30 PM. Selected participants will have the chance to trade anything—within legal limits—for a pair of the coveted sneakers.
The Return of an Icon
The Nike Air Foamposite One “Galaxy” originally dropped in 2012 as part of the “Galaxy Pack” during NBA All-Star Weekend. Its otherworldly nebula-inspired upper made it one of the most hyped sneaker releases ever. The launch was so chaotic that stores had to cancel in-person releases, leading to resale madness. Craigslist and eBay became the hub for trades, including someone offering a used car in exchange for a pair.
The Trading Post Experience
Nike is embracing the sneaker’s history by allowing people to offer their wildest trades for a chance to secure a pair. Interested participants must sign up online, and selected individuals will receive email invitations with further details.
The event is exclusive to New York City, making it a highly anticipated sneaker moment. Expect to see insane trade offers, from rare collectibles to high-value items, as sneakerheads battle for the legendary Galaxy Foamposites.
