FP stands for Fun Police.The Nike ‘Fun Police’ advertising campaign included young stars from 1998 like Kevin Garnett, Jason Kidd, Gary Payton and even the aging Tim Hardaway. Tom Gugliotta (y'all are probably thinking "WHO?", but he was a pretty decent player before injury)and NBA legend Moses Malone to round out the bunch. An enjoyable campaign all around, the Fun Police rolled up on unsuspecting ballers, ensuring that they were playing the "right way".
I don't remember the Fun Police but it sounds like something good. Anywho, a decade later, Nike commemorates this group with the Nike Zoom FP (Fun Police) basketball shoe.
Prominently featuring elements from the Air Garnett III, Kidd’s Zoom Flight series an
d Hardaway’s T-Bug along with the Zoom Glove series, the Zoom FP is a clear throwback to the late nineties.
Getting to the shoe, I have mixed feelings. In some colorways, like the AG3 one, I like them a lot. In others, they look AWFUL.
Nike has been putting out a lot of fusions/hybrids in the past few years, and some of them have been real winners. The Zoom FP is a decent effort, check out some more colorways below, including the HORRIBLE "White/Black/Electrolime."
I'll be back with more ball kicks updates.
P.S.: LEC Varsity Point Guard Quameek Daniels plays in the Zoom FP, so they must perform pretty well.
