Throughout most of the season, Paul Pierce of the Boston Celtics wore player exclusive colorways of his own sneaker, the Nike Max P2 V, but now that the stakes are higher and the playoffs have started, Pierce has decided to switch to the Nike Zoom Sharkley. The Nike Zoom Sharkley was the sneaker of choice for many guards earlier in the season, but most have moved on to other sneakers including the Nike Zoom Phenom. This “Home” Nike Zoom Sharkley Player Exclusive (PE) features a white upper accented by a green midsole, green inner lining, a black outsole, a clear sole under the heel, and Pierce’s logo on the rear. Unfortunately, this colorway was made exclusively for Paul Pierce, and will most likely never be available in stores.
To celebrate Earth Day on April 22, Nike has set to release the Nike Zoom MVP Trash Talk in black/purple and white/orange.

Even the box uses recycled fiber to give the finishing touch to a certainly respectable shoe. No trash talk here except for that of eco-friendly materials. The black leather upper of the first pair is offset by a purple suede swoosh, and the white leather upper of the second is offset by a white swoosh with an orange outline.
