Our sports-watching culture and the punditry surrounding it no doubt places a premium on rings. Yet the squads that truly last the test of time aren’t always the ones that held the Larry O’Brien trophy when all was said and done, those who still draw out fans in droves to highlight packages, season retrospectives, and celebrations of team alumni.

For the Philadelphia 76ers and the league as a whole, the 2001 Eastern Conference winner and Finals runners-up outfit remains one of the more legendary, headed by Allen Iverson at the peak of both his cultural dominance and on-court play. You may have already seen Philly’s year-long celebration of that locker room’s 25th anniversary as the black and red Hardwood Classics uniforms returned to circulation, but now it bridges into our neck of the woods.

In a partnership with Crypto.com, the Philadelphia 76ers will be giving out three pairs of custom ’01 Air Force 1s, assembled by Marko Terzo and featuring a slew of diehard details. Most notable, actual basketball leather, utilized in games where this year’s team wore those classic kits, paces the construction, visible in the pebbly overlays where the shooting stars logo sits. Roster numbers of the ECF winners dot around the profile, while a classic white/red/blue split dominates the whole shoe.

You’ll need to purchase one of 200 digital collectibles to enter the running for the three pairs on offer here; those go on sale on March 3rd at 9AM EST. As you weigh that, catch detailed shots of the custom Philadelphia 76ers’ 2001 Air Force 1s below.
