Sail has been a popular shade among Nike’s audience, as a subtle sway from the standard stark white. The soft off-white color has been giving new releases a retro feel, as demonstrated by the Air Jordan 1 Zoom CMFT and the Air Force 1 in “Sail/Mantra Orange”. With the upcoming Air Max 90 in “Sail/Red”, Nike continues to give fan-favorite silhouettes a vintage color treatment.
As the colorway suggests, the uppers are wholly dressed in sail. A notable detail regarding the uppers is the ripstop nylon used around the toe and ankle, which add a premium touch to the model. Disrupting the heavy use of sail, bright white is introduced throughout the sole unit. Vibrant, unexpected hits of red are found in the Nike Air branding on the heel and tongue, as well as inside the Air unit. A splash of color and a sail base makes this model ideal for a sneaker rotation upgrade.
A release date will be announced soon, so check out the official images here below. In other Nike news, find out where you can purchase the Air Force 1 “Para-Noise”.
