The IV's are boring.

wats de "f" on d outsole mean ?

 

[smoothysmooth]

^^^ f could have two meanings ~ it's a fort symbol in music, because carter used to play music in h.s (I believe). And fort stands for loud/strong

of The Raps​

 

[blazers21ntnp]

Hopefully the following article will answer your questions about the outsoles...
__________________________________________________



Toronto, ON - For the first time ever, Canadian ballers and sneakerheads have an opportunity to get their hands on the exclusive Vince Carter IV.

The Nike Shox VC IV basketball system is inspired by Vince Carter of the Toronto Raptors, one of basketball's most high flying, exciting and dynamic players. "With the VC IV we've combined a 6-column Shox system with forefoot Zoom Air to provide superior heel to toe transition to help translate Vince's energy into smooth, explosive elevation," says Tracy Teague, Footwear Design Director of Nike Basketball and VC4 designer. "There are several musical connotations in the VC IV from the Treble Clef and Forte' symbol on the outsole, to the music bar and percussion notes on the upper. We've tried to bring another side of Vince into the overall design execution."

The 4th edition of the Vince Carter signature sneaker is exclusive to Canada and now more accessible to consumers with a retail price of $179.99 (CDN funds). "Nike Shox VC IV is designed to propel one of the game's best players to the highest levels of explosiveness, responsiveness and quickness," says Derek Kent, Head of Corporate Communications, Nike Canada. "Vince is a tremendous athlete and we are thrilled that he is introducing an exclusive colourway to Canada."

Actually it's not an "F."

On one of the soles, there's a treble clef and the other an "F," or for those who read music, forte (meaning loud) As previously mentioned.

This touch was added to compliment Vince's passion for music (he plays the saxophone) and represent his game (loud).

Can someone photoshop the black/red/white and switch the red and white color placement. Just curious as to how that would look.

I agree, the black/white/red were destined to be with the away Blazer jerseys...

phoenix is probably being used as the mythological symbol. similar to "the rebirth" inside of the VC3 all-star. the phoenix is usually a symbol of being reborn.

I think they are very nice to hoop in but they will be slept on because its endorser doesn't play in the NBA anymore.....
"Can you tell me which way I should go?"
"Where are you going?"
"I don't know...."
"Then it doesn't matter."
