With the Nike Barkley Posite Max "Eggplant" releasing this weekend, Sneaker Report takes a look back at the model which inspired the new style: the Nike Air Max 2 CB 94.

Worn by Sir Charles in 1994, this classic sneaker has remained a capable performance model on basketball courts. And thanks to the Barkley Posite Max, the style is more advanced than ever, with durable Foamposite overlays on the upper and an even larger Air Max unit than before. The Nike Barkley Posite Max "Eggplant" releases at retailers today for $235, so head to your nearest store to pick up a pair and take a look back at some of Barkley's best moments in the Air Max 2 CB 94. One thing is for sure: they don't call Charles the "Round Mound of the Rebound" for nothing, as he snagged ten or more boards in each highlighted game.
