Air Force 1 Linen 2016 Release

One of the most sought-after sneakers in history is returning this year. We’re referring to the “Linen” Air Force 1, the low-top AF1 drop from 2001 that impeccably paired a luxurious light-tan hue with an elegant shy pink on the Swoosh, sole, and AIR branding on the heel. Now the question is – will Nike get the materials and the shape right? We’ll just go ahead and say anything short of the quality of the Air Force 1 re-issues will not be tolerated! Stay tuned for more updates, because TSG reports that the Linens are dropping this Holiday season. Read more about the OG pair here.
