Can you separate your favorite sneakers from those that have been the most influential over the years? Complex went ahead and took a stab at that, compiling what they’re billing as the 30 Most Influential Sneakers of All Time. Some of them are billed as such for the impact the overall design has had on the game, the Nike Air Force 1 for example, while others seems a little bit more centered on the colorway impact (Yes, the “South Beach” Nike LeBron 8 is on there). Continue reading for a small sample of their list and then head over to Complex if you’re interested in the rest.

It’s not uncommon to see someone craft a tribute sneaker with their Nike Air Force 1 Bespoke experience, using the Uptown silhouette to create a nod to a previous Swoosh banger. That appears to be the aim taken by Nagata here, who designed this gum-bottomed Nike Air Force 1 Low. The pair is shown next to a vintage Nike catalog featuring a sneaker that looks close to the likes of the Nike Daybreak, but 21 Mercer hasn’t provided any background info at this point. Tell us if you think this was a good use of the Bespoke program and stay tuned to see what comes out of the studio next.

We’re still awaiting the Liberty London collab that was the most recent piece of Nike Air Force 1 Downtown Sneaker News before today. Here’s a new AF1 Downtown that opts instead of a multicolor print, to dabble in dark greys and black of varying glosses. Combining a traditional leather with suede, patent and mirror-shiny metallic leathers all atop a tonal midsole gives this Air Force 1 Downtown a unique feel. Stick with Sneaker News for US release info and check out more images below in the meantime.

The Nike Air Force 1 Low isn’t the only Uptown model that will be dressing up in the “Blazer” inspired look going forward. Shown here are a couple Nike Air Force 1 High releases that do the same thing, donning a beautiful set of suedes and some old school tongue tags. The Nike Blazer is a model that’s always been more salient in the high-top version, so at least these Nike Air Force 1 Highs make a bit more sense as far as height is concerned. Continue reading for both of the Nike Air Force 1 High “Blazer Pack” joints, along with one of the lows, and keep in mind they’re arriving at spots like Sneaker Lounge on May 18th.

Nike went absolutely nuts with the Nike Air Force 1 treatment last year, celebrating the sneaker’s 30th anniversary with a horde of special editions. Could the model’s 31st year top that though? There are some mean looks on the way, including the Puerto Rico version and this-an apparently themeless Nike Air Force 1 Low. The sneaker is part black patent and part minty suede across the upper, with a tan Swoosh connecting the two sections. See them in full detail after the jump and stay tuned for release info on this killer Nike Air Force 1 Low.

The Nike Air Force 1 iD is apparently going to keep things in the animal kingdom for the time being with its monthly option-additions. Next up for the model is ostrich leather, which you can slap on for the upper of both the Nike Air Force 1 Low and the Nike Air Force 1 High. That specific texture never was too prevalent on retail releases for the Uptown, so we’re sure folks will be coming out in droves to flex the option. Get a couple of quick sample shots of the Nike Air Force 1 iD featuring ostrich leather and whip up your own right now at NIKE iD.

Rasheed Wallace is likely done with the NBA forever, but we can’t help but be reminded of him whenever a basic colorway of the Nike Air Force 1 High falls before our eyes. This clean mix of White and Hyper Blue is definitely something Sheed could’ve worn during his days with the Pistons or the Knicks, with the patent leather Swoosh hinting at some of the earlier Nike Air Force 1 High “Sheed” releases of the past. If you’re looking to replenish your AF1 cache, look no further because this new release is available right now on eastbay.
