The Nike Zoom Alpholution has been an alternative to your higher-profile basketball sneakers of 2009, with colorways like the Varsity Purple recently going on sale. We now have pictures of another pair that has recently popped up- the Nike Zoom Alpholution black-on-black. Despite the classic colorway, this pair contains certain things like a mesh underlay and elephant-like print that is sure to make it more attractive in the eyes of sneakerheads used to seeing the black-on-black colorway applied to a plethora of shoe models over the years. With certain overseas online retailers beginning to get these in stock, keep up with your local Nike retailers stateside in anticipation of this release- if you can stand the wait, that is. If not, you can check out one such online retailer and more pix of this Nike Zoom Alpholution colorway after the jump.
