Nike Air Force 1 Low ‘Deconstruct’

When broken down to the barest of bones, no sneaker is as empirically beautiful as the Nike Air Force 1. It relied on the basic formula of an Air-cushioned midsole with a simple upper design, a far cry from today’s Lunar-foam, Flywire, and Hyperfuse technology. For Summer 2012, Nike Sportswear will introduce the Nike Air Force 1 Low Deconstruct, which features the same historic silhouette, but with a slimmed down construction stripped down to suede. No padding, no cushioning, just the thin suede material with the perforations providing ventilation for your feet. The ‘Deconstruct’ method could be compared to NSW’s NL varieties, which features a thinned-out inner-lining (NL stands for No-Liner) seen on the Nike Air Max 1 ‘Elephant Print’ releases as well the UNDFTD x Nike Dunk High. Here we have a look at two upcoming colorways of tonal grey and tonal navy, both of which are paired with a white midsole and gum outsole. We’ve got more exclusive images for you below, so take a good look and let us know what you think of the ‘Deconstruct.’ A big thanks to Fat_Board for the pics!
Just another way to be cheap and save material and make more money.. way to go Nike. Another #EpicFail
Ima get the Navy joints and turn them into Navy Blue & Cream Pair.
i like these
i never liked the thick midsole on the af1, always preferred the dunk low for that reason
NOT LIKING THESE AT ALL, VERY WACK!!! THE THIN INSIDE AND THIN TONGUE IS NOT A GOOD LOOK THE SUEDE SUCKS AND GUM SOLES ARE WACK NO BUENO
THIS SHOE IS BEAUTIFUL! MY CONCERN IS THAT ITS GOING TO COLLAPSE OVER TIME - ESPECIALLY THE ACHILLES HEEL PORTION.
dopee
i would like to see how these would look with natural gum soles, like on clarks wallabees
yo, u on it wit that thought!! gum all the way down, would go hard!!
nice!
Hmmmm, I think I like this. Very nice.
Smh trying to save on costs by not adding lining hah jk
wow those go hard
"no sneaker is as empirically beautifully as the Nike Air Force 1" C'mon SON!
You can't leave out the first part of the quote and then try to make a dumb comment about it...
It's about time they came out with the air force one version of the No Lining
i love it, won't looks too bulky now on my wide feet!!!!
Clean looking kicks.
